Corpus Christi – This would be our second time to eat at the Saltwater Grill, the first time we had fried plates and they were excellent. I have always been leery choosing seafood that wasn’t fried at a new place, since a lot of places around here do a horrible job. Most of the time … Continue reading →

Corpus Christi – Okay, I admit it, I fell into the whole Valetine’s Day trick. You know, the one where you think you have to go out and spend unheard of amounts of money to show someone you love them? Yeah, that one. We went to dinner at Katz 21. I have never been there … Continue reading →

Corpus Christi – I will admit it, we went there just for their biscuits The biscuits are to die for. We did get a pleasant surprise, their calamari appetizer was great!

Corpus Christi – I have been spoiled for decades when it comes to Chinese food thanks to the late Mao Tai. Since it’s closing, we have ventured off to places we haven’t been in years, as well as the recently new P.F. Chang’s located at La Palmera Mall (Still Padre Staples Mall to me). First … Continue reading →

Corpus Christi – Love the atmosphere there, and considering the unreal reality that there is no other seafood restaurant in Flour Bluff even though it is right on the Laguna Madre, it makes it that much better. We started off with calamari as an appetizer.  It was a bit over cooked (extra crispy), but tasted … Continue reading →

Corpus Christi – I know it sounds weird, fast food place in a kid’s hospital. It doesn’t sound so bad when you think in terms of a hurt or sick kid in the hospital longing for a Happy Meal for the toy. On several occasions the service there was great. The same lady always tended … Continue reading →
