Culinary Capital: Signature Dishes from America's Premier Restaurant City

Jim Caldwell
0/5 ( ratings)
Houston is a town, like New Orleans, that appreciates tradition, and yet a cutting edge town, like Los Angeles, with room enough for creative young chefs to grow and experiment and excel and,on occasion, beg our forgiveness . . . a boisterous wonder of an eternal work in progress."—Author John R. DeMers Houston is this country's foremost restaurant city, leading the nation in number of restaurants and restaurant meals served per capita. There is found the signature multicultural mix of Deep Southern, Cajun, Creole, Mexican and Southwestern, to be sure—but do add Italian, Spanish, Greek and French; Middle Eastern; Chinese, Japanese, Vietnames and Thai; Indian; Australian . . . name it! And you will find it in Houston, the Port City, the Garden City, the Bayou City, our nation's fourth largest. This title showcases the heights and breadth of Houston's unique cuisine, its passionate embrace of the words "new" and "global" having powered the city's dramatic evolution from its humble origins, as home to only the simplest Texas and Gulf coast fare, to an astonishingly diverse Culinary Capital.
