Peli Peli Kitchen: Try the Signature Rotisserie Chicken

January 3, 2017 by

Houston's Peli Peli Kitchen takes the term "fusion fare" to the extreme. Its menu combines elements of English, French, Dutch, Indian, and American cuisine. The result? An entirely new type of fare that, according to the people of Houston, is well worth a try.

The signature dish is the Peli, the eatery's take on South African peri-peri rotisserie chicken. Glazed with a sauce that emits both heat and subtle sweetness, the Peli chicken comes as wings or a half- or whole rotisserie chicken, and you can add sides to create a full meal. Pair your Peli with grilled cauliflower, truffle fries, and candied sweet potatoes to create a feast. You can also opt for one of the naan tacos (perhaps the smoked salmon or curried chicken) or dig into a classic banh mi sandwich stuffed with roast beef or pork belly. The options are eclectic and many at Peli Peli Kitchen in Houston, so you may want to return time and time again to try something new.

Don’t Miss the Roast Beef Sandwich at Revival Market

June 27, 2016 by

With the state of Texas so rich in agriculture, there's really no need to go beyond its borders for fresh food. So the chefs at Revival Market don't. They source everything from veggies to charcuterie meats from farms and purveyors right in Texas, and not just any supplier will do. Revival Market's team is discerning when it comes to each purveyor's practices, opting for sustainably, ethically raised food over cheap stuff.

That must be what makes the roast beef sandwich such a hit. Its challah bun is loaded up with grass-fed roast beef, cheddar cheese, arugula, pickled onions, and brown butter aioli. The sammy serves as one of the most popular lunch entrees, along with other sandwiches, quiche, and corned beef hash. After lunch, peruse the shelves in this market for specialty items like sweets from Fluff Bake Bar. You can also step up to the butcher's counter and procure some fresh meats or have your own game processed here.

Start with Some Savory Monkey Bread at Urban Eats

May 11, 2016 by

Almost every component of your savory Monkey Bread—a dish of garlicky, pull-apart rolls dusted with smoked sea salt and rosemary—is crafted right in Urban Eats' kitchen. Whatever Urban Eats' team doesn't make itself probably comes from another business nearby. The eatery teams up with local vendors like Kraftsmen Bakery, Cloud 10 Creamery, and Angela's Oven to bring even more fresh food into the dining room.

Most customers believe you should definitely start your meal with the Monkey Bread. Then move on to a set of the signature sliders, like the Cowboy Sliders. They feature Salisbury steak patties topped with cheddar cheese, crispy bacon, onion strings, and a house-made bourbon barbecue sauce with a bit of a kick. You can also dig into a New American entree like the garlic-stuffed pork pot roast, the sundried tomato and prosciutto meatloaf, or the grilled ahi tuna steak. Save room for some house-made chocolate Nutter Butter cookies or a salted caramel apple tarte.
