Lists of the best
This an attempt to recommend the best restaurants in the Houston area in a number of categories. These lists might be a top ten, but sometimes there might be more or fewer places to recommend for a theme. These should be fun, as most 'best of' lists are and, hopefully, even useful, unlike most of them. A terrific amount of eating and drinking has been involved in their creation; some perspective: the author has been the local editor for Zagat since 2007 and the first edition of his Houston Dining on the Cheap guidebook was published in 2002.
Not much progress has been made with this; only four lists partially completed (the ones in red) but stay tuned.
