When I stopped by on a weekday evening at 9pm it was packed. They had stations setup throughout the store to order different goods, which helped to alleviate the rush. Knafeh ($6) - They offered 2 types of knafeh, one with cheese and one with custard. I went with the one made with Nabulsi cheese and topped with shredded phyllo, and soaked in sugar syrup. It was warm, crispy and delicious! Karak tea ($5) - This milk tea drink was made with aromatic spices, primarily cardamom, cloves, ginger and cloves. I was happy to see they used whole milk instead of evaporated milk. The drink was incredibly rich and creamy and tasted great. Turkish delight ($18 / lb.) - This was extremely fresh, soft and chewy, made with cornstarch, sugar, nuts. Some of the varieties I tried had chocolate and/or fruits. The baklava here was fresh made with layers of phyllo dough, chopped nuts, and held together with some honey. The nut offerings here included, almonds, walnuts, peanuts and a few more. Overall I was impressed with everything they offered here with the exception of the nuts, which I thought were just ok. I'd definitely return if I was in the area.

The Dubai crepe was super rich and creamy and nice large portion size. The strawberry mousse cake was frozen solid, so I was not able to eat it right away but it was a lovely mousse with jelly fruit filling and a thick chocolate crust. Also got a bag of chocolates, which are weighed by the pound. The only qualm I have is that the chocolates are not labeled, so when you mix them all together, it truly is a bit of a Russian roulette on what you'll get. Everything was super yummy. Will definitely need to be back!

Well as the party grew I knew I needed to get as big of sacks as I could. I called and he said he couldn't promise me anything because the catch had been slim from the cold front. I told him no worries. Show up to get the crawfish the next day and he had pulled me 2 40lb sacks with the forewarning that they weren't going to be monsters or anything like that. I told him don't worry and I appreciate it. Got home and opened them up and couldn't have been happier with them for this time of year. These ain't no H‑E‑B crawfish. He's honest and deserves a good review.

I bought lobster ravioli, four-cheese ravioli, and pasta sauce. Lobster ravioli is $2.40 each so I paid $24 for the box. When I opened it to cook, I only found 9 ravioli inside.

It's such a shame because their ravioli and sauce taste so good.

Herbert's Specialty Meats on Richmond near the Galleria instantly took me back home. The moment you walk in, the number of items from Louisiana is delightful Their boudin, seasonings, and prepared items reminded me so much of my grandmother's gumbo, boudin, and rich, slow-cooked stews--comfort food that warms your soul. You can taste the authenticity and love in everything they make. This is the kind of place that understands balance, spice, and tradition. Customer service was excellent--friendly, patient, and genuinely happy to help you find exactly what you're craving. There are tons of choices, whether you're stocking up for a cookout or just grabbing something to satisfy that Cajun craving. For anyone missing Louisiana flavors or wanting the real deal in Houston, Herbert's is a must-stop. It feels like a little piece of "The Boot"

Basically if you want to look like you cooked but didn't, this is your place. The chicken salad is famous for a reason. It sells out constantly and I get why. The pastries and cookies are fantastic, the soups and casseroles actually taste homemade (better than homemade, honestly), and everything is made fresh in-house daily. I've grabbed their chicken tetrazzini for lazy weeknights more times than I'd like to admit. Staff is sweet, the space is adorable, and the wine selection is surprisingly solid for such a small shop. Great for dinner parties, host gifts, a quick lunch, or just treating yourself.

I had first seen Cottage Grocery on tiktok which made me curious to try it…read more I had stopped by on a Friday morning around 8:30 and it was decently busy. While there is an attached parking lot, I can see it getting quite full during busier times. I tried their iced latte with lavender syrup. For my personal taste, if it was just a touch creamier I think it would've been perfect but otherwise not a bad latte. My total came out to $6.50 which isn't great but not unbelievable. They also had a display of pastries that looked tempting but I didn't peruse much since I was in a slight rush. For the grocery aspect, they have lots of what looked like prepared foods/meals. Otherwise of the goods they offer it seems to be largely wines, some paper/decorative goods, and some other food items like pickled vegetables and tortilla chips. Not the largest grocery selection. There is also a small seating area
