Help the Greater Houston Visitors and Conventions Bureau Update Its List of 15 Iconic Houston Meals
Whether or not you agreed with our own recent list of our 100 Favorite Dishes in Houston, most residents have their own very definite ideas of what essential Houston meals are. Perhaps it's barbecue at Thelma's or oysters at Gilhooley's. Maybe it's crispy-skinned snapper at Reef or Vietnamese crawfish at Wild Cajun. Either way, every Houstonian has at least one meal or one restaurant they guide visitors to when they want to dine in the Bayou City.
If we were to send visitors out for a steak in Houston, it'd be to Vic & Anthony's.
Last week on Twitter, the Greater Houston Visitors and Conventions Bureau asked for help in updating its own list of 15 Iconic Houston Meals. The list as it currently stands includes:
- Petaluma salad at Barnaby's
- Pancakes and bacon at Buffalo Grille
- Oysters at Captain Benny's
- Parillada at Churrascos
- Breakfast tacos at El Rey
- Fried chicken at Frenchy's
- Dim sum at Fung's Kitchen
- Chopped beef sandwich on jalapeño-cheese bread at Goode Company Bar-B-Q
- Vietnamese sandwich at Les Givral's
- Fajitas at Ninfa's on Navigation
- Crawfish at Ragin Cajun
- Joe's Pizza at Star Pizza
- Chicken burrito at La Tapatia
- T-bone steak at Taste of Texas
Personally, we'd sub out the steak at Taste of Texas for one at Vic & Anthony's, and the pancakes at Buffalo Grille for those at Fountain View Cafe. And there should be at least one food truck meal on there, for which we'd probably sub out Barnaby's.
