Are We There Yet? Restaurants We're Excited About for 2013
From Mobile to Mortar

At least four different food truck operators are busy making their brick-and-mortar dreams real, with one of those opening any day now: the Eatsie Boys, who have moved into the old Kraftsmen Bakery space on Montrose and totally transformed the little restaurant into something all their own.

Houston food writer Joanne Witt called her dinner at The Pass the "best meal I have had in Houston this year." And my friend Peggy Lane -- who is possessed of a silver palate, and whose palate I trust implicitly -- said of chefs Seth Siegel-Gardner and Terrence Gallivan's food: recently on Twitter: "The Pass [is] exemplary in taste, texture, presentation, beverage, service. Skip the plane ticket, stay in HTX and eat here."
