Like actual downtown? An uber the frick out of there to a respectable part of town with establishments not overrunning with riff raff and ne’er-do-wells.

Go to Kirby Ice House…everything around The Village is…less than desirable.
Just go to the bars in the Heights off 19th and 20th. There’s a bunch all concentrated in a 2-3 block radius there.

8 Row Flint, EZ’s Liqour Lounge, Heights Bier Garten also located in the Heights.

Kirby Ice House either in River Oaks or Heights.
That Christmas which is also on Netflix is pretty good too.
Kroger and big box stores like Walmart and Target are pretty comparable in terms of quality of produce and meats…I shop at Kroger twice a year…when they deeply discount rib roasts.

In no world, if you live in Texas and have an HEB within a reasonable, convenient driving distance pick another grocery store. HEB’s produce, meat and seafood, bakery, deli, literally anything that doesn’t come prepackaged in a box are vastly superior there.

Hell I’d pick Joe V’s or Mi Tienda before I did my weekly grocery shopping at a Kroger.

And then of course, Central Market is the gold standard for walking into a grocery store, dropping 100 bones on three items and being completely ok with it.
Had a good meal at Delacroix when I was in town over thanksgiving.
I mean I get where you’re coming from in the sense that most aquaculture is terrible…but let’s not act like shrimp in the wild behave wildly differently in terms of diet.

They are bottom feeding scavengers.
Correct…Bakery Donut on 11th is a prime example…the owners a good people.
Shipleys bacon, egg and cheese kolaches are elite.

Everything else there is mid.
I’m of Mexican heritage and was running the skreets of New Orleans all last week…didn’t see ICE or BORTAC at the Roosevelt, R&O’s, or Delacroix (great fried fish collars btw), or the movie theater in Elmwood.

Maybe they’ll get me come Christmas time at the family dinner at Herbsaint.
I remember during COVID buying these from 44 Farms was such a great deal…6 hanger steaks and 6 pounds of ground beef for 100 bucks.

Chow fun
Dan Dan noodles
Red oil dumplings
Salt and pepper anything…eggplant, shrimp, chicken wings
Curry fried rice
Crab rangoon
They are Lancers from the 9th Bomb Squadron out of Dyess AFB.

Their call sign is “BAT”.
From 610 south or from Allen Parkway?

You’re doing it wrong if you’re driving up Kirby from the 610 south area.

If you’re coming from River Oaks…in no world does it take you 20 minutes.

I do it almost everyday…my kids go to ROE.
