The best breakfast tacos in Texas, hands down! Go for the migas, stay for the Democrat. Try the taco of the month. They also have a full bar and are open late for those nighttime cravings!

This counter-service coffee-shop/food place is a real gem. They are dog friendly (even inside the restaurant!!!) and there is a full play area in the back for kids. The frozen coffee drinks and pancakes are must-trys!

One of the best Indian/Pakistani places in the city, located in Houston's Gandhi (Little India) district. This restaurant has been featured by Anthony Bourdain and many other magazines, but you can say you've been coming here since before it was cool. BYOB. (If the wait is too long, try English-pub inspired London Sizzler in the same shopping plaza!)

For authentic Chinese Szechuan cuisine outside of Chinatown, definitely make a stop here, in the city's hip Montrose neighborhood - it's an outpost of a popular Chinatown-based restaurant. (For lots of different types of Chinese foods, Chinese spa services, Vietnamese food/culture and shopping, ask us! William speaks Chinese and loves guiding people to the best places in Chinatown!)

Local grocery store is well within walking distance and has everything you need. If not, there are a CVS and a Walgreens right across the street.
