Om nom nom nom! Oink!

All hail Meatopia! Seriously. 32 chefs were released on Texas to kill n' grill half the animals living out there. The BBQ grill was the altar that so many cute and furry animals were laid down upon, as we sacrificed them in the name of meat! It was meat-tastic. We had so many delicious types of meat! No animal was safe. Pigs, bison, clams, goats, lambs or fowl were all cooked up. It wasn't just a bunch of dudes sittin' out in front of a brewery grillin' some burgers. It was the city's top chefs breaking out the good stuff, and grilling up some fantastic cuts and wild flavors. The chefs were on hand to talk about their dishes, or prepare their dish right in front of you. This event is quite an event, only being held in the most exclusive cities across the meat globe- London, NYC, and of course, San Antonio!! The food ranged from lamb hearts with a chili sauce, thanks to Monterey, to pork and clams thanks to Jason Dady. Each chef's food was more delicious than the last! Chefs were out to make a statement with their meats. Chef Jeff from Zoca's in the Westin was representing with The Bison Council, serving up some kickass bison carpaccio on a piece of flat bread with tomatoes and cheese. Of course, if all you can eat beef wasn't enough for you, they had free beer too! I was so happy to see Tim from Granary Brew n Cue out there with his rye saison and the IPA. Both beers were quite the perfect pairing with the meats! Dickel Whiskey also provided free drinks, with some exotic cocktails, such as the milk rye and a spicy walnut cocktail, which were delicious and paired perfectly with meat, meat, and more meat! I was happy to see the vegetarians being represented there by Green Vegetarian serving a potato and kale dish, which was a perfect way to compliment the meat. I'd have been disappointed if they tried to pass off tofu or their Wham as being as good as the other meat there. Instead, they aced it with the vegetables! The whole event was well executed, and there were so many different varieties of stuff to choose from. I applaud all the chefs for their incredible talents! The Pearl Brewery was a great setting for such an awesome event. I can't wait to go next year!

One of the best shopping areas in SATX. Has lots of charm to it and great qualities. It's a place…read morefor almost everyone. Here's the break down Shops: 5 stars They offer a wide variety of places to shops. Food, books, clothes, keepsakes, and more. The shops here aren't your typical shops you find at the mall which makes the pearl really attractive to me. Although I believe that they have a rather small collection they frequently have vendor pop ups which is a must to experience! Ambiance: 5 stars I truly adore the outdoor concept of the pearl as it's beautiful done. Including greenery, fountains and outdoor seating. It's all very pretty and well put together. Each store front looks very timeless and elegant. Despite this, it also makes for a harsh visit during the summer and most shops do close before sun set so that's a little bummer but if you pick your day wisely all is perfect!

I absolutely love Pearl District. It's one of my favorite places in the city. I used to visit…read morewhenever I came to San Antonio on vacation, and now that I live here, I make it a point to attend the many events held there throughout the year. Whenever friends or family come to visit, I always take them to the Pearl to explore the market, enjoy the festivals, or simply walk around and take in the atmosphere. There is always something happening, and it never disappoints. I truly love this place and all the memories it continues to create.

"You must be the change you wish to see in the world." - JFK…read more One of the last things that JFK ever did was visit Alamo Heights. He came to San Antonio with his car the day before he went on to Dallas that fateful day in November '63. The moment was immortalized in this big brass plaque. It's really cool how they engraved the brass with a photograph of the President driving by Cambridge Elementary on Broadway, and all the smiling kids. So the Alamo Heights High School class of 1971 got together and raised some money for this memorial to that moment. They juxtapose the range of emotions for Alamo Heights in those twenty-four hours, from pride, excitement, and hopefulness, to grief the following day. It's a cool idea for a monument! The kids pictured waving at the president are a lot of the class of '71 who paid for the monument, I believe. I'm not really quite sure what's going on with the Legos on sticks in a bucket are, but it's artistic.

People who remember November 22, 1963 can often tell you where they were and what they were doing…read morewhen they heard the news that JFK had been assassinated. The day before, JFK, Jackie, and the Connallys spent an idyllic day in San Antonio, including a drive down Broadway past Cambridge Elementary in Alamo Heights. This monument, dedicated in 2019, captures that moment. Take a moment to pause on the sidewalk and look at the images of children, some of whom felt like the President was smiling and waving just at them in particular.

Avoided due to anticipated problems with parking…read more Pearl is so filled with affected and editorial instagram locals in some sort of daily cosplay of care free affluence when in fact many are broke as hell. There are others mainly business class or tourists but they stay at Hotel Emma and definitely have money, or their employer's corporate card. Then there are the real carb eating customers who are there to actually consume goods. I finally had a free weekday to go to Pullnam now two years after they opened and loved my experience. Parking in the Pullman market was easy. It really is $0 with validation and for up to 2 hours. I was looking for ground flax, they only had whole. Looking for cinnamon infused honey, they did not have. Just weird shit like lavender infused. I enjoyed the elevated feel of the place, very transporting and nicely curated with so many spaces in and out doors to sit and people watch or just hang out with friends. Ate at Fife and Faro for a simple pizza and pomodoro pasta.

I was so hyped to find out about this market and grocery store, and especially about all the food…read moreoptions. The store itself is very cute with different sections, seating areas, food vendors to select from, and connects to actual restaurants. The mediocre review is for the "Burgers by the Butcher" place towards the end of the store. The Wagyu burger sounded really good and had good reviews, but it was really dry and not very flavorful. Usually Wagyu is known to be juicy and moist, but this tasted nothing like that caliber. It was disappointing but at least not very pricy. Fries were okay but pretty chopped up and not the style I prefer. Some of the other places looked promising like the ice cream and cafe. The poke/ceviche also sounded good on paper but when we walked by (maybe around 1.5-2 hours before closing), the quality of the raw fish didn't look too great and was a little discolored so we passed. The store itself was very cute and had lots of nice and unique products.
