There is this place we go in San Antonio called Lulu’s Bakery and café. It’s a great small diner and I mean small. It’s a must hit place whenever we go. I’ve been to this place more than I could count throughout my childhood. It’s home to their 3lb cinnamon roll, diner burgers and their…

Spicy Beef and Brussel Sprout Slaw Sandwich
I don’t know what is up with me and slaw lately. I almost feel like I’m forcing it upon you guys! So I had a craving for banh mi, as usual, like clockwork. For the unfamiliar banh mi is a sandwich that has grilled meat like beef, pork, chicken or tofu and some pickled (depending…
White Cheddar Bacon Stout Burger w/ Fried Red Onion Petals on Pretzel Buns
I’m kinda at this weird seasonal limbo stage of not knowing what to do with myself . On one hand I’m soooo happy summers almost over but I’m also not trying to jump the gun on winter foods. Winter isn’t even in the horizon we gotta get through fall, y’all. So I find myself wanting…
Hatch Green Chile & Pepper Jack Burgers
Hatch chilies are HUGE here in Texas. They come from Hatch, New Mexico and are usually harvested August to Late September. Although the range of spice can vary due to climate, growing conditions, harvest, etc. They are typically on par with a Anaheim or poblano peppers. Not much heat, a huge flavor vessel though. Here…
Roast Beef Sandwiches
I love roasted beef it almost screams to me today is going to be a relaxing day. True one pot, one burner or stove cooking is the stuff from fairy tales. And if this all also takes place on a weekend then I could only imagine that’s the same feeling of hitting the lottery. Over…

I love carne picada tacos. Its quick, easy and delicious. Let me explain why carne picada is a little different than the more common fajita. Fajita means thin strips and carne picada means minced meat. Generally when you make fajitas its whole marinated meat. Often a tougher cut marinated in lime or other acids then…
Steak Sandwich w/ Homemade Jalapeno- Horseradish Mustard
Steak sandwiches have been my thing lately. Recently ive been feeling French country side style eating. That includes light thin sandwiches, salads, wine, meats and cheese but light is key. Which is huge change from texas eatin’. A texas style steak sandwich is piled high, has everything and its nothing short of the actual bone…
Hoisin and Lemongrass Steak Tacos
I have to say these are some of the best tacos I’ve had in a while! So I got this awesome cut of skirt steak but it was huge and a lot of it. I figured I wanted to try something different since I’d more than likely use half for traditional fajitas. I had some…
Garlic Flat Iron Steak
Today was one of those days I didn’t know what to make or more importantly I didn’t even know what I wanted. Its one of those days where I could be persuaded to eat anything and everything sounds good. On these type of days I feel more receiving for a culinary sign. Something or anything…
