Standout hole-in-the-wall Chinese food. 7.5/10Fat dragon has been one of my go-to Chinese restaurants for a while now! It's right off of 183 and is in a random shopping mall that's easy to miss, but once you go I can promise it'll be one of your staples too. It's fairly affordable, is never too busy, … Continue reading Fat Dragon
Torchy’s June Taco of the Month: the Doublewide
Does "Doublewide" refer to "double" amount of breading required?? 4/10 I have to say that when I went to get the Taco of the Month for June, I had extremely high expectations. One of my favorite aspects of Torchy's is their unique taco of the month, and I find myself time and time again wishing … Continue reading Torchy’s June Taco of the Month: the Doublewide

Via 313
Pure ridiculousness. 9/10This pizza is almost too good to be true. Their Detroit-style pizza is the perfect combo between my two favorite things: bread and cheese. The fluffy, freshly baked pizza dough (actual bread bc it's so fluffy) is a perfect ratio to the sauce and cheese, and the crust is still nice and crunchy, … Continue reading Via 313
April Taco of the Month: The Vagabond
Torchy's is seriously on a roll. 8.5/10This taco is really incredible. It's a flour tortilla loaded with a ton of steak, bacon, feta cheese, pico de gallo, and chimmichurri sauce. When I say that there's a lot of steak, I'm not kidding. Mine was almost too much meat compared to the tortilla and sauces, but … Continue reading April Taco of the Month: The Vagabond
Bufalina
The cheese, not the pizza, is what'll bring me back. 5.5/10So I'm gonna be honest here, despite the "harsh" score, this place really was delicious. The atmosphere was really cool: it was a small, yet cozy, restaurant off Burnet with a cute bar and the pizza oven was right in the middle of the eating … Continue reading Bufalina
