I'll give you Lupe, everywhere else though :huhldup: Good for a quick bite at best.

It doesn't get any better than

Teotihuacan, Lopez, and El Tiempo(overpriced)

Taco Cabana shouldn't be mentioned in the same breath as Chacho's either. Maybe compare them to Taco Bell or some shyt.


All this food talk though, there is some fine delicacies in the city. Right now I'm pondering if I want a burger from

Petrol Station:lawd:
Bernies Burger Bus:win:

or

Stantons:banderas:


Can't forget about Christians Totem or The Burger Guys either :blessed:


Jax in Pearland has best burger in houston

I had the Fire Drill with sweet potato fries and ain't looked back since :noah:

Oh and if ya'll eat at Sparkles you're asking for food poisoning :scusthov:. I've seen 5th ward row houses bigger than that. Ain't no way in hell that tiny space is putting out an 110 item menu while considering sanitation and safety.

Anyone tried http://hubcapgrill.com/ ? It was voted Houston's best hamburger so I'm thinking of giving it a shot based on that.

I may eat Sparkles once a year. Last time I went it was better than any other previous visit.

I've heard good things about Hubcap but I haven't had a chance to visit yet.

Maybe I haven't looked enough but it's not enough GOOD pizza places around Houston.

Taco Cabana ain't all that, if I want a quick burrito bowl and don't feel like traveling to Chipotle then that's about all I get.

I hit up Chuys every so often too, best chili rellenos from a chain spot.


Plenty of great Pizzeria's in Houston

Gotham Pizza in Mindtown

NY Russo's Pizzeria - Chain but consisently good

Star Pizza - Montrose/Midtown Area

Pizza Parlor - Pearland

Lupe Tortilla (chain, but good menu as well)
Cafe Adobe (Particularly the shepard and westheimer location)

Best late night mexican
Chachos

Be sure to avoid fresh salsa bar if you don't like food poisoning.

There's a late night Mexican spot right down the street from the Galleria but I don't remember the name.

Taco Cabana :scusthov::scusthov::trash:

Didn't say it wasn't any, just not enough. Dolce Vita, NY Russos, Pinks, and Gotham pizza (for lunch at work) are my usual go-to spots. I'm going to have to check out the other spots you listed.

On bus 1779, whats up with the windows?

The RTS-01s came with sealed/fixed windows which you of course couldn't open during an A/C failure, which happened often due to the sloped rear. The A/C unit shared space with the engine and would often overheat and fail. The little window inlets on 1779 were a stopgap measure to allow passengers to get fresh air into the bus. Eventually every RTS-01 was retrofitted with the Sutrak roof A/C units. There were very sexy buses. :wow:

1808, note the sealed windows.
