    What's your favorite Tex-Mex in the Uptown/Bellaire/Meyerland area?

     

    for casual after a bike ride with friends we go to Escalantes Meyerland Plaza since some of my friends live in that area...but for dinner with friends we go to the Escalantes in Highland Village ALOT... but really I am all over the board and go to everything from hole in the wall authentic to Pappasitos and Lupe's...I am not toooo picky when it comes to Tex Mex. I even frequent El Real and Chuys depending on who I am with. I have never cooked a day in my life so I go out to eat often.

    Was just hanging out on top of BLVD Place.. 5th floor garage. Don't know how this will work.

     

    The movie attendance might be slow during summer season. The sun is melting up there.  

     

    Haha tell me about it! my contact with the RCC said it will be seasonal and that is why they pushed the opening from this summer to October! Can't wait to go though...

  3. So cool! Super excited about this since I own a condo a block away!

    The Rooftop Cinema Club, based in London, will open a sky-high movie theaterin the Galleria area in early October.

    The unique open-air venue will offer sunset screenings of recent releases and cult classics, food, craft cocktails and cozy seating. The movies are shown on a giant rooftop screen with state-of-the-art HD projectors.

    It will be located on the rooftop of the BLVD Place at 1700 Post Oak, with views of Uptown and downtown Houston.

    “Uptown’s skyline and the BLVD Place location are a perfect fit for our film experience,” says Gerry Cottle Jr., Rooftop Cinema Club founder. “We’ve found that movie-goers don’t always want to sit quietly in a large dark room, but instead make it an experience they can share with friends and family.”

    Houston marks Rooftop Cinema Club’s fourth U.S. city to open following its international expansion from London, where it began in 2011. The first U.S. venue was opened in New York followed by two in Los Angeles and one in San Diego that opened in April 2018.

    Tickets for opening weekend go on sale Wed., Aug. 29 and start at $17 per person for a single deck-chair. Read more from KHOU here.

    Snooze: An AM Eatery, the rapidly expanding, Denver-based restaurant that serves brunch every day, has confirmed it will replace Arcodoro in the Centre at Post Oak shopping center at 5000 Westheimer Rd. Slated to open in early 2019, the Galleria location will be the Houston-area’s sixth Snooze, joining Montrose, Katy, Town & Country, The Heights, and one that’s still under construction in Webster. At 3,700 square feet, the Galleria location will be about average for a Snooze, but a 48-seat, dog-friendly patio will set the new location apart from its siblings."

     

    now i just need to go out and adopt a puppy :)

    Was there really a need to pave four lanes off of Memorial Drive into the Glades? It looks like an entrance to a newly built park in some far-flung master planned community. 

     

    are you speaking of the portion just east of the 2.8 mile jogging trail? if so, that is the new expansion to turn it into a 3 mile jogging trail and they will close up the old road and that is where a small pond/lake will be and more...
