Hugo is the chef and owner of this restaurant. If you want authentic Mexican food and consider yourself a foodie, this is a must stop. Try their chilaquiles during brunch or really anything on the menu.

Sightseeing

This is the newest attraction in Houston! Just opened Sept 2020. Although it’s still a work I progress, check out this place for some beautiful landscapes. Also make sure to check out the lake and sand area at the Susan Garver Discovery Garden. Bring some good walking shoes and get ready to enjoy a nice walk. Check their website for tickets.

Great place to come for a walk! Great place for pictures. Walk through the garden and spiral up to get to the top of the mound. Enjoy the sound of the waterfall. You can also see herbs and vegetables growing in a section of the garden.

Ice cream

This is a great hangout for ice cream. Liquid Nitrogen instantly freezes the ice cream right in front of you! Also, try the bubble waffle.
