Why are there so many Houstonfags on /ck/?
Also chef Killen is based
>>7755478
Cause motherfuckers like to eat
>>7755488
>downtown gets flooded on a regular basis
And nothing of value was lost.
>>7755478
I'm not sure. I grew up in Kingwood and even the nice parts of town are mostly dominated by chain restaurants. Since moving to a tourist town a couple states over, I couldn't believe how many unique food options were available and how literally every place in town is great.are being missed out on. It probably has something to do with Houston being the modern day Babel. The place is almost entirely comprised of chain shit. Fuck that cesspool.
>>7755478
Austinfag reporting. There seems to be a lot of us here too.
Any Round Rock cu/ck/s wanna get together, eat some fast food and maybe touch peens?
>>7755478
>tfw I live in suburbia
all the good restaurants are in fucking montrose
We should all hang out eventually
at the Flying Saucer or something
>>7755674
This. How does mid-late June sound?
>>7755674
>flying saucer instead of Kings Biergarten
My sides
>>7755478
Always found this surprising as well, and yes, Killen is indeed based.
>>7755717
well I won't be in the country then
how about like early august
>>7755799
>pearland
fuck that
>>7755478
It has been my impression that this is a Chicagofag board, and that you are not a Houstonfag, but just a fag.
>>7755674
Let's go to The Deck on Fountainview and get crawfish!!!!!
H-Houston meetup?
>>7755601
>grew up in suburbs
>"Everything is chainshit"
Imagine that. Shame you missed out on the variety Houston actually has.
Being the 4th largest city in the US and sprawled like a motherfucker, there is a lot of chainshit though.
>>7755910
heck yeah
we gotta agree on a place though
>>7755648
>Any Round Rock cu/ck/s wanna get together, eat some fast food
Might be cool
>and maybe touch peens?
ya lost me there.
>>7755648
Pville represent
Recently moved from Pflugerville/Round Rock to North West Austin - around 183 and 45. Any joints y'all would want to recommend?
>>7755671
I still laugh at when they were put in the dome and crime went up... and then the Mexican gangs started killing the fuck out of them.
>>7755912
I know Houston's a city, but it just doesn't feel like one. IMO, if I need a car to get anywhere because everything is too far apart to hoof it, it just ain't a city.
Unpopular opinion, especially to a Texan, but I like NY, Chicago and Philadelphia more than Houston.
If we could transplant all Texans to NY and force NYers to live on rafts in the Hudson, that'd be great.
>>7756049
Why not just meet at a brewery like Saint Arnold's sometime since they have nice long tables and if people are weird you can just lose yourself in the shuffle.
>>7758860
>Saint Arnold's
Hipster spotted
That being said a new microbrewery just opened near me and its pretty good and popular.
>>7758822
If you're into Sichuan chinese food, Asia Cafe is just down 183. Sichuan Garden in Round Rock is good too. Can't recommend A + A Sichuan China though because I went thwre once and there were roaches and bugs EVERYWHERE.
RC Fowlers at 620 & Lake Creek is a total shithole dive bar, but their wings are just as good, if not better than Pluckers. Bone-in wings are half price all day Monday and Tuesday and boneless are half price on Wed. The rest of their menu sucks but drinks are cheap. And they deliver.
Also in that same shopping center is Noble Sandwich Co. that I hear is really good but have never been.
A little further down 620 is Saccone's pizza. Pizzas are really good, but expensive. They have hot sandwiches, stromboli, etc for lunch that is more reasonably priced than the pizza.
Not very close to your location (Parmer & Mopac) is Sushi Junai 2, if you are a sushi lover. They do all-you-can-eat for $30 and the quality of the fish is not bad at all in my experience. Pic related.
If you want recommendations for what to order at any of those places I'll be happy to suggest things. Also interested to know if you've been to any of them amd what your experience was
>>7759003
>Sushi Junai 2
What happened to the first one?
>>7759134
The other one is downtown. Not too smart, are ya?
>>7758878
Hipster? Isn't that too mainstream for them? It's in a centralized location and has AC/seating, unlike most other Houston breweries. That's really the reason why. That and Karbach is fucking expensive and their restaurant blows dick. Texian, No Label, Buffalo Bayou, etc all don't have good seating or are way out of the way. I mean fuck, Texian is currently affected by the flooding anyways. 8th Wonder may as well be an overcrowded bar.
>>7759388
Bakfish
>>7759409
I need to try them now. But do you not have a fucking car or something? Pearland is shoved to one corner of the city. Be a bit more mindful of everybody else.
>>7755650
Nigga theres god tier non chain Mexican and Tex Mex places literally everywhere.
Not to mention seafood since we're on the fucking gulf. Montrose is for faggots and hipsters, don't tell me you think shit like Empire cafe is good.
Go a little farther north and it's even worse, I saw The Sword at Fitzgeralds and it was just hipster cafes and food trucks to pick from.
>>7759640
I do but its 2 minutes driving distance and I'm lazy.
Recent Dallas transplant here. I don't suppose any of you know the city well enough to tell me where I should be going for the good stuff? I'd love to find a quiet bar I could read at.
>>7755912
I'll have to add, I did eat at the Vietnamese place in the shopping center connected to the HEB and it was GOAT. I don't remember what roads it was by but I think it's somewhere near Richmond ave. My dad took me there when I was 15. Now there's a fucking Pei Wei across from it that my family and I went to a couple years ago. Not that there's anything wrong with Pei Wei but they fucking went there when there's was a fucking legitimately superior place across the fucking parking lot. Got I hate my faggot family.
>>7760070
The post said he'd like to see New York populated with Texans. Houston's already got Texans. And others, sure, but there's a bunch of Texans, too.
>>7759715
I also enjoy that but I haven't found a bar yet that isn't 'DUDE FOOTBALL'. Maybe a high end restaurant with a bar would be your best bet.
>>7760233
My previous experiences have generally been pretty good if I could find a place that had a lot of craft beer or was mostly a wine bar, but Texas has a lot less of that culture than the far North, from what I've seen.
Bear Creek area checking in.
the only thing I don't like about houston it that there is no long table bar to chill drink beer and talk to randoms untill you are all drunk and friends. Bunch of small groups thinking they are too good to have a fucking convo. the snobbery is real.
voting for an event at the Backstreet café.
>>7760301
>Bunch of small groups thinking they are too good for you
It's the same way in most places. It might as well be high school again since everyone has their faggot cliques with the bartender included sometimes.
>>7755648
I'm in Central Austin but go up to Round Rock to teach after school/ summer tech camp in public schools pretty frequently.
All suburbs just remind me of growing up in suburbia. It's kinda nostalgic. Sometimes I stop inside a Super Target to grab a drink on the way.
>>7759651
I don't like Mexican and Tex-Mex though
>>7755478
>4th largest city in murrica
>american imageboard
Best sushi restaurant in corpus checking in. Born here. Not from here. Like the spot.
>>7760625
Jamal please
>>7760233
Nobi public house maybe? Hipster but lots of beer and good banh mi
>>7760070
Are you seriously implying there is any city in Colorado that has nearly as much variety as Houston? Nigga what.
Having to drive to get everywhere does blow, don't get me wrong.
>>7761095
It's not the driving that sucks really. The city is just too fucking huge and the traffic is always shit. I can get to Galveston in like 35 minutes but if I want to drive to the heights or something it'll take me about an hour.
>>7755601
>grew up
So your parents took you to cheap shit
>suburbs
Oh so you lived close to houston but not in houston.
Houston has the best asian food in the country if you know where to live look. Also premium soul food. Both will take you into ghettos.
Killens is primo. I go there every time i am heading south but not going to galveston. Galveston itself has some great food.
The best mexican chain is ruchi's. I used to get beer at 4 am at my favorite ruchi's.
I love houston. The weather is so horrible that people would need a reason to live here. And a huge part of that is food.
>>7761206
>Houston has the best asian food in the country if you know where to live look
enlighten us, anon
>>7761095
I've lived in Houston and Colorado Springs. Houston blows, and Boulder blows it out of the water as a place to live or visit.
>>7761313
Not that anon, but this would be a good place to start
>>7761313
There is a part of houston on the sw side that is asian ghetto. The street sines are in vietnameses. You can get asian counter food until 4 in the morning. And truly great asian food during the day. There are khat bars and indian food and mongolian. This area is down 59 close to the belt (8).
Also the best fried chicken i have ever eaten is frenchies. The original frenchies. The one up the block from the uh stadium.
I went to houston for a physics scholarship. 15 years ago. And i love the place.
>>7761338
My bad
>>7761338
No, downtown has almost no good asian spots. There is an asian bar near uh downtown that is acceptable. The large buiding cafaterias are better. If you can get into the boa cafeteria it is great.
>>7761354
Also nikoniko is a great greek food place. It is now getting to damn hot to eat at the downtown park but for 10 bucks i love walking to the nikoniko stand
>>7761368
Try them
>>7761368
I don't know maybe you could
>pick a restaurant
>go eat
>if it's good go back
>if it's not good don't go back (and blast them on yelp)
At least that's what I usually do. One of my favorites that I found using this highly sophisticated method is Sichuan Bistro. They have a cold appetizer that I have wet dreams about called crispy spicy beltfish. Pic related
>>7761388
thanks for the help anon
maybe I'll go down there tomorrow
>>7761388
Sorry, it's Mala Sichuan Bistro. I also recommend the water boiled fish, a Sichuan staple
>>7761389
Always happy to help a fellow anon. Hope you enjoy it!
>>7761383
Nikoniko is good but highly overrated. I've been a couple times when it was jam packed and it just isn't worth it
>>7761383
Baby lamb shank with fries is my shit
>>7755674
I'm down
>>7761332
t. DUDE
>>7761313
Pho Binh Trailer is pretty good
Fat Bao
Giacomo's Cibo e Vino
Mala Sichuan Bistro
Oxheart
Pax Americana
Pondicheri
Killen's Barbecue
Those are some of the best restaurants in Houston. Also Pax is fine dining but you can spend $50 total if youre smart about it
>>7761468
>Killens bbq
I'm not getting up at 10 to go wait in line for an hour and a half
>go to take out the trash
>it's literally crawling with hundreds of maggots
Hahaha, fuck Houston.
>>7761662
Haha
>>7755715
>I wonder how those Royal Oaks neighbohood faggots are doing now.
Royal oaks has at least three inner circle suburbs within in, it would take some advanced apes to get into there.
>>7761368
I suggest Tan Tan and Fu Fu. Both are pretty damn good for the price. Bring some friends and go to fucking town.
So are we gonna do a meetup or what
no homo
>>7767560
I don't know senpai. Last time I met some /a/nons they told me I was a faggot and gave me some (you) cards.
I vote for Nobi public house in webster.
>>7765402
They have nice scallop dishes.
Can we meet on the same day of the Reddit mega-meetup? It's June 25th at Memorial Park from 3 PM until 7 PM

Please tell me you're baiting.
The spicy ketchup should be called "white people spicy ketchup" so the rest of us know it's not spicy.

>>7771479
No it should be called shit because it doesn't taste like their ketchup at all. I thought it would taste like the regular ketchup but spicier, instead it's a different sauce entirely. Now everytime I get ketchup I have to say regular
>>7755648
another ausfag reporting
Ex Houstonian here, I lived in Memetrose.
>>7770463
We don't have to hang out with them. We can just have our meet up date at the same date and time.
So how does June 25 sound to everyone?
