    a sign for a restaurant

    So late one night I decided to head to the gym. Didn't get very far cause I ran into this little gem first. I realized that this is a much better looking gem than the gym that I was heading to, so I figured hey, its closer and it doesn't require any membership. So I parked in front of this gem and was checking out all the amenities they had on the menu. There were tacos and pollo and tortas and quesadillas. I mean all the cool things where at this gem that my gym didn't even offer. And the tacos were just $1.50 a piece. Humph. So you know what I said? "To hell with my gym!" I commenced to ordering about a dozen tacos to take back home and share. Let me tell you those babies did not fail me. I was filled with excitement and the house was overjoyed with the taste and smell created from my new found gem. The energy level in the house was very high and there was joy and laughter and I was the hero for the night. My other gym just couldn't compare. Such a meager cost to bring happiness for the whole family before bedtime. The next day, after work and grabbing the kids, I returned to this new gem once again. (You know, to start a good routine as you should at a gym.) Once again it did not fail us and we were happy and full of energy once again. Workout and prosper.

    I was super excited when I read all the great reviews. I just ate and now Im just utterly confused. Chicken was tender but salty with not much flavor. Costillas & beef fajita very tough and chewy. Had a pan fried flavor like its not grilled. Sausage is sausage. Charro beans bland. Rice was very tasty. Actually loved the spicy green sauce. That was good. Guess I'll continue my search for good grilled Mexican food in the Cypress area cuz this was NOT it. I'm talking Northside/Airline Drive good.

    Friendly, open late, and conveniently located. It's tucked away in the front corner of the Prime Mart/Exxon. They have a variety of food choices and beverages as well.

    Waited 30 minutes for some horrible tacos. Don't recommend at all. Should've went to the taqueria and cooked it myself.

    Today I went to a local beer joint called Craft Beer Cellar on Barker Cypress and Queenston. The…read morewaitress is a blast to talk to and the customers were so outgoing and friendly. I've been to many establishment similar to this but I have to get them credit to the atmosphere they created. The place wasn't too big and everyone welcomed conversations in here. Rob mentions that a food truck was outside so I took a quick look at the truck. Dude, it was a Lao food truck! I absolutely love Laotian food, and full of bold flavors. Many of you are wondering, "Laos"? What the hell is that? Let me first educate you on the location of this wonderful and beautiful country called Laos. Open up Google maps and head over to Thailand and Vietnam, there you'll see Laos snuggled between them. If you are truly a food lover and not afraid of trying new things, then find this food truck and go get you some. Da, the head chef and owner, created a masterpiece with her papaya salad. I've eaten hundreds, if not thousands of such salads but this papaya salad was legit. The home made papaya sauce, with the heat and crunch of the papaya was so freakin good!!!!! It's so damn spicy and good, you'll want to slap your mama! I ordered the brisket, short ribs and papaya salad. Everything was out of this world. I could not believe the food was this good and I found it in Cypress. I didn't expect that quality of food out of a food truck and I have to say that it was better than the restaurants I've been to. They apparently move from location to location around the city, especially breweries. I can't wait to see them again as they make their rounds. They will be at Bearded Fox on Spring Cypress on the 27 of July, then back to Craft Beer Cellar on August 3rd. Come and try it for yourself, then let me know your thoughts. Happy eating!

    Stumbled upon this gem at 8th wonder brewery!!!! If you have never had Lao food before this is the…read moreplace to try it. Lao food is hard to find for me in Houston and the food tastes like home. So happy I found Cafe Dala . I recommend their Lao style beef brisket with sticky rice.
