    Ed's sits just off Main Street in downtown La Porte. Its a quaint spot with a genuinely warm,…read morewelcoming staff. I started with the crab cake, served over a bed of spinach. Flash fried and Bell pepper really balanced the flavor throughout. The chicken pot pie was a standout. Visually impressive and even better once you dig in, it comes topped with a crispy, buttery croissant crust that spills over the bowl it's baked in. Inside fresh cubed chicken, carrots, and celery in one of the creamiest fillings. For dessert, the bread pudding made me pause mid-bite and demand my dining mate to try it immediately.That mofo slaps...hard. Everything coming out of the kitchen felt sincere and carefully prepared this was one of the best dining experiences ive had all year. Hands down. This place is a hidden gem. If it were located in the Loop, you'd be waiting weeks, months for a reservation and they'd probably already have a James Beard or Michelin award.

    We had a fabulous brunch at Ed's Bistro celebrating my mom's birthday. Everything was amazing and…read morehomemade. We started with the strawberry glazed biscuits and WOW... those melted in your mouth. Absolute heaven! My mom and I loved the shrimp and grits. They used fresh jumbo gulf shrimp over cheesy grits. It's the best we've ever had. My sister also enjoyed her croissant sandwich. We ended the meal with the strawberry shortcake dessert. It was also a big hit and I see why they are famous for it. Special thanks to Magen for making my mom's birthday brunch extra special. She kept the cocktails flowing and even offered us some off menu items like her cherry cosmo and dragonfruit mimosa. We absolutely loved the old town country feel and this was truly the best brunch experience we've had in a long time. We can't wait to visit again soon.

    Most people who know me know I don't spend much time chasing fried food. Life's too short for…read moremediocre grease, and if I'm going to surrender to it, it had better be worth the guilt. Today, I was supposed to meet a client at Main 101 in La Porte, but renovations sent us wandering in search of Plan B. That's how we ended up at Wooden Spoon & Bakery--a place that, at first glance, promised fresh bread, pastries, and the kind of comfort food that usually comes with a side of nostalgia. I walked in thinking I'd order a salad. Then something happened. From the host who greeted us to our waitress and the rest of the staff, there was an infectious excitement about the day's special: a simple cheeseburger. No gimmicks. No towering masterpiece held together with a steak knife. Just a cheeseburger made with confidence. Their enthusiasm was enough to change my mind. Naturally, I added onion rings. If you know me, you know that's never a difficult decision. What arrived at the table was one of those rare moments that reminds you why neighborhood restaurants still matter. Five onion rings, each one the size of a small planet, wrapped in a thick, beautifully seasoned crust that was impossibly crisp. Peppery. Salty. Rich. The kind of crust that shatters with every bite before giving way to sweet, perfectly cooked onion. They weren't trying to reinvent anything. They just happened to make the best onion rings I've ever eaten. And I wasn't expecting to discover them in a small restaurant tucked away in La Porte, Texas. The cheeseburger was exactly what it should be: honest, satisfying, and the perfect companion to those unforgettable rings. What made the meal even better was the hospitality. Before we left, the manager, the chef, and several members of the staff all stopped by to make sure everything was right. It wasn't rehearsed hospitality--it felt genuine, the kind that makes you want to come back before you've even paid the bill. Sometimes the best meals aren't found in famous cities or trendy restaurants. Sometimes they're hiding in plain sight, waiting behind an ordinary storefront in a town you've driven through a hundred times. If you ever find yourself in La Porte, Texas, do yourself a favor: stop by Wooden Spoon & Bakery. Order the onion rings. You can thank me later.

    Headed to The Wooden Spoon with Mom and the Missus for lunch. This time I had the Cheeseburger and…read moreFries. Our server was nice and relaxed. She was quick with our drinks and let us look at the menu for a few more minutes. Mom had the Green Tomato BLT, the Missus had the club sammich. But enough about their meals ... I want to review my meal. Their menu lists that the burger is on a brioche bun ... check that one off of the item list. A hearty patty is also placed inside of the bun and along with it are pickles, lettuce, onion and tomato. Check and double Check. Mayo is slathered on the buns, at just the right amounts that make it taste good, but not so much that it slides the innards of the burger all over the place making the chomping experience mushy. Flavors were good, I had just hoped the patty fit the bun a little better. The ratio was a bit more bun sided than oatty sided. My fries, crinkle cut, were seasoned well. Well enough that no ketchup was needed to dip them into for additional flavor. I would have liked a bit more crispiness from a double fry, but these were toothy enough to get a decent mouth feel. The meal for the three of is was about 47.00, so inflation has also hit my hometown dining places as bad as they have hit my current home near The Woodlands. Will i return to eat there the next time I visit Mom? If she wants to go, then yes, yes I would. I would also hit it alone just for their chicken fried steak or chicken. Ciao, Darrell

    Restaurant Review: The Velvet Quarter 2234 E. NASA Parkway,…read moreSeabrook, TX My friend and I visited The Velvet Quarter with the intention of enjoying a relaxed meal on the patio. When we arrived, we seated ourselves outside, where there was only one other group present. Despite the patio being very small and the waitress coming in and out several times, we were never acknowledged or approached. After waiting for some time, I went inside and spoke with the owner, Adolf. He came out to our table and briefly discussed menu options with us. I asked specifically about the fish and chips, as we were told some dishes were no longer available due to an earlier rush. He said he would go check on that for me--but he never returned. Fifteen minutes later, we still had not received any service. When the waitress came back onto the patio again, I called her over and asked when we might be helped. She told me she "did not see us there," which I found difficult to believe given the size of the patio. After that interaction, she did not return to take our order. I went back inside and spoke with the owner again, this time clearly frustrated. He looked me directly in the eyes, raised both hands, and said, "You can calm down now." He repeated it in a tone that felt condescending and dismissive. I responded, "Thank you for giving me permission to calm down," and at that point, I turned around, walked out, and left with my friend to dine elsewhere. I cannot comment on the quality of the food because we were never served. I can comment on the service, which was extremely poor. On a scale of 1 to 10, I would rate the service a zero. Based on this experience, I will not be returning to The Velvet Quarter.
