Bite Into a Barbacoa Taco at Tacos Tierra Caliente in Houston

October 8, 2015 2:33 pm

For a food truck, earning more than 300 Yelp reviews and 4.5 out of 5 stars is a pretty impressive feat. Anyone who's ever visited Tacos Tierra Caliente Food Truck probably isn't surprised that the Houston food truck has accomplished this goal.

Nearly 100 of Tacos Tierra's fans point to the barbacoa as the best option. Its tender ribbons of beef have won over many mouths in Houston, but the al pastor tacos and lengua—that is, cow tongue—tacos also garner many rave reviews. Cooks match the fresh beef with ample amounts of onion and fresh cilantro to complement the meat's savory flavors. Add on slices of creamy avocado for a different combination of flavors and textures, or try the fajita tacos instead. Many Yelp reviewers also highly recommend the fajita meat. Tacos Tierra Caliente Food Truck even serves breakfast tacos, and they're a hearty way to start your day.

Oxheart: Try a Foodie Twist on Texan Cuisine

September 24, 2015 2:32 pm

Oxheart may consider itself a Texan restaurant, but it’s a world away from the local barbecue spot. Upscale and stylish yet still comfortable and welcoming, this often-buzzed-about eatery serves some of the most creative takes on Texas cuisine in all of Houston.

The menu is split into two distinct six-course menus: the vegetarian Garden Menu and the omnivorous Tasting Menu. The dishes always change to accommodate which ingredients are currently in season, but past menu items include a stew of preserved alliums and Indica rice, lightly smoked wild boar with pork Thailande, and Japanese roots and a sofrito of dried shellfish. Drink pairings can be added to either of the menus for an additional cost, and each libation is carefully chosen to perfectly complement the rest of your dining experience.

Reservations are recommended at Oxheart, and they can be made via the restaurant’s convenient website.
