I've heard good things about the Golden Rule, is there better out there?

Sam Spade Sun, 19 May 2013 15:07:01 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902220#8083807 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/901852#8083373 Lankford is only open for breakfast and lunch. If you're just looking for a good burger, along the same lines would be Christian's Tailgate (the original on Washington would be my pick), or newer options would be Hubcap Grill in the Heights on 19th, Bernie's Burger Bus (a couple of mobile units) or the Burger Guys on the far west side. Be advised Hubcap is famous for long waits and I'm not sure Bernie's is out much in the evening.. Texas Food Bliss = kolaches in La Grange??? I think you know what you're doing here! but do you want more than just kolaches? Maybe pick up some breakfast tacos on the way out of town in Houston? Another place I like a lot is Kountry Bakery in Hallettsville, Schulenburg and Weimar - great kolaches too plus cafes that serve meals. However, I've only ever bought kolaches, pastries and bread, never had a meal. The Schulenburg location is less than a mile off I-10. You should post on the Austin board for breakfasts (and lunch). I'd skip Salt Lick and Goode Co. myself and look for something else, but it's true, the best bbq in Houston is not open in the evening so for dinner you'd have to consider something else. Maybe Goode Co. Seafood just a couple of blocks from the original Goode Co. bbq location for some great Gulf Coast seafood? brucesw Sun, 19 May 2013 03:59:11 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/901852#8083373 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/891936#8080727 Remember Snook exit on 46, too bad I quit driving to A&M a few years back...some great Czech bakery in Caldwell whose name escapes me.

Don't see a lotta love for either among the local reviewing community. Persnally I think they're both good (not great) but folks here loves their Bill Millers mostly based on the QPR (QUANTITY, not quality, price ratio) Sam Spade Thu, 16 May 2013 17:38:50 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902134#8078911 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902079#8078892 Cochineal in Marfa has been almost worth the longish drive from San Antonio by itself. http://www.cochinealmarfa.com/ Sam Spade Thu, 16 May 2013 17:30:31 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902079#8078892 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/312075#8077453 Golden Moon in Weatherford has War Su Har. A close facsimile to Jimmy Dips...not as wonderful as I remember from my childhood, but quite good. amark Wed, 15 May 2013 22:27:18 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/312075#8077453 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902129#8077111 At the risk of starting a "run" on it, if you haven't tried the Poteet Strawberry Ice Cream ( HEB's Creamy Creations) you are missing a true Texas treat. Don't know for how long it will be available, but you can't go wrong with it, even if you are a true-blue Blue Bell lover. Give up the Blue for this............It's cream, sugar and strawberries (from Poteet) not some pink-colored concoction. Simply delicious and only here for a short time. I'm storing several 1/2 gallon boxes for late summer when the mem- ory of red, ripe strawberries will be a fading memory. The best $4.69 you will spend this year. amazinc Wed, 15 May 2013 20:03:14 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/902129#8077111 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/901445#8070960 Thanks to all that replied.

The topic title told us that. Seriously, would that it were true, but you'll find no fondue in East Texas. Quesso and chips is as close as you'll get. Sorry! Mike C. Miller Wed, 01 May 2013 05:24:07 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/899191#8049514 http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/898347#8041075 Near Schlitterbahn is Pat's Place.It's a local place that has been there in New Braunfels for years. There is also McCadoo's and various other places around there.There is Cooper's BBQ on Tx Hwy 46 and there is the Gristmill in Greune.There is also the Adobe Cafe in town . I really haven't eaten that many places in New Braunfels but the Chamber of Commerce has info on eating places.The new Golden Corral is good.Very clean and light and airy. If you like hamburgers,there is Bracken Cafe in Bracken.They have a website.It is in an old store building in town and very popular with good burgers too. Schertz has Mamma Margie's next to the Lowe's and HEB on IH35. If you go down FM3009 there is also Garcia's and El Jalisco.There is a Sea Island over in the Forum at Olympia Hills. In Universal City you have various choices. Next to the Valero on Pat Booker Road is the Picky Deli. Futher up by West Telemarketing is The Four Kings..They have fresh sandwiches,salads,soups and desserts. Both places make everything fresh daily and got good reviews in the San Antonio Express News as did Pappy G's.Pappy G's is more home style and soul food cooking which also got good reviews.It is in the little plaza where H&R Block is located right by Pat Booker.There is Manny O's BBQ. It is in the old HEB Plaza down by the Texas Department of Motor Vechiles. It's stuck away by the far coner.Also good reviews.In Cibolo,there is Harmon's BBQ and Catalano's which is italian. You would need to go IH35 South like you are going to San Antonio and get off at the 1103 exit. Just folllow 1103 to the light and the Shell store.Turn left on Main Street.Go down into Cibolo.Both places are on your left hand side in some old store buildings.You cross the railroad tracks to get to Harmons.They are next door to each other almost.Good food at both. If you like Thai food,I heard Siam Cusine in the plaza next to Walmart in Schertz is good.That's on FM3009. There is also a Gumba's Pizza ,Encanto Grill(mexican) and an ATT store. In Live Oak on Pat Booker up near the movie theatre is Bangkok Cusine which constantly gets good reviews. There is on Pat Booker Shanghi Chinese restaurant and a Mr.Gatti's Pizza with games and stuff.In the forum there is also by the Home Depot a Peter Piper Pizza.

Ha! Sounds like a great honeymoon. Road trippin! I watched the Daytripper host Chet Garner on that web cam from The Big Texan. He ended up laying under the table for quite a while. I don't think the episode has aired yet. When I think of Amarillo, I still think of the cattle slander case filed against Oprah and tried in Amarillo. It was during that trial that Oprah and Dr. Phil met and a new king of daytime TV was launched.

I was going to suggest the products at the Guenther House under the Pioneer label. It is not far from the River Walk and has lots of items unique to SA including coffee and pastry mixes. http://www.guentherhouse.com/ Lambowner Mon, 22 Apr 2013 21:35:09 GMT http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/898431#8032582
