Congrats to Boat People SOS-Houston for the 7th Annual Banh Mi Cookoff Fundraiser. Great banh mi sandwich samples provided by Blood Bros BBQ, AtCha on Bellaire Blvd, Kau Ba in Montrose area, Saigon Hustle in the Garden Oaks community, The Pho Fix, Vina Deli in Spring, Kim Son Restaurant, Wokker HTX and Xin Chao Restaurant (a modern Vietnamese restaurant by Christine Ha & Tony J Nguyen). I remember it used to elbow to elbow during the 2nd hour of Banh Mi Cookoff event at Chapman & Kirby previously. This year is a lot more room to roam around. Much better and comfortable. Me and my foodie friend went around to sample every banh mi one time. Then, went back to try those we want to vote on. After some sweet teas, we were stuffed. Another great improvement was the ticketing process. Signed up on CauseVox and paying $40 with no upfront fees. I received the eTicket via email. I bought 2 tickets, my friend got her email, too. Traffic from Chinatown was usual busy around this area and I parked at an empty lot across the street for $20 plus tax. Overall, it was a great event. We vowed to come back next year.

Popfancy Dessert Bar: You're here for K-Pop, the desserts are the bonus…read more Let's be honest about what this is. You're paying for the K-Pop Demon Hunter pop-up aesthetic, the upbeat vibes, the fast service, the themed menu. The desserts? Solid. The Pinky Up Parfait hits. One scoop of cappuccino ice cream comes generous and tasty. Nothing disappoints. But nothing revolutionizes dessert either. This is good execution in service of a limited time experience, not destination-level pastry work. And that's fine. That's exactly what a pop-up should be. The real draw is that everything works together. Vibe, music, service, and desserts that don't let the side down. It feels fun, not gimmicky. That's harder to pull off than you'd think. Bottom line. Pop-ups don't stick around. If the K-Pop theme is your thing and you want solid desserts in a fun environment, go now. If you're just looking for great desserts, permanent spots do it better.

I'm surprised I have not reviewed this place because we have been here multiple times and each time…read morewe've liked it. This is not a place you go to just have lunch or something.This place is an experience. Some adults might find joy in here (like I do), but my children definitely did, and that's worth it. They came here with the same excitement that they had for disneyland so I'm really happy about that. We all liked the harry potter experience and some different anime type experiences as well that my children liked. The foods and drinks are on theme and although it's not cheap, it's definitely not as much as Disneyland. We came on the weekends, but during lunchtime, and I can see how they might be really busy during the dinner rush. Sometimes you might need a timed entry to go in, but thankfully, we have not since we've been going. I will say that it's quite small and gets cramped really fast. I just think the experience of it all is a really cool and I'm happy we have fun places like this around us in Houston.

Long line if you come late. It started at 10am, got here at 10:30am and had to wait an hour in line…read morebut not like I'm not used to camping!! XD it was a bit hard due to the sun and not a cloud in the sky!! I recommend to bring an umbrella and come an hour before event is officially starting. Some items were already sold out during the day. Popular item hello kitty bow!! If you have kids bring water and snacks or leave the kids and have them choose what they want beforehand or have them waiting at Barnes and nobles XD the food truck itself has a cute splash design of hello kitty famous characters!! Great for pictures if you are just dropping by! The cheapest item is $4 next items are $13 and $16. The non food items start at $15-$ PS: I saw this gorgeous outfit worn by a very lovely lady~ I asked for her photo and to not be disrespectful hid her face. If she sees this post id like to keep in touch via Twitter if she has one~ msg me!

I've been on a mission to check out the farmer's market scene in Houston and Blue Field Market is…read moreone of the first I've checked out. Located in EaDo, we found parking on the street. What's cool about Blue Field is that it's not your typical farmer's market. It's held at night every Saturday from 6-10 PM rather than your usual morning/afternoon. And they offer a lot more than vendors: games including cornhole, an outdoor bar serving beer/wine with a couple TVs, food trucks, and live music. Creates a nice experience. The downside is that there aren't a lot of vendors. Out of the few that were there, only a few were offering food. No produce at all. It's a small farmer's market so I would've liked a greater selection.

The Whoo Deli is a gem on Rice University's campus as far as dining is concerned. Yes, the whoo is…read morefor the Rice Owls. If you ask, I'm sure their energetic staff will even do an owl call for you - let me know how that works out. Let's get down to business though. It's a small café located next to Hanzsen College Commons ... the only indication a business exists there is a yard sign out front. It's a walk up and order type venue. The staff is really friendly and will work with you to make the perfect sandwich or tell you the specials of the day. My personal favorite is the Margherita Sandwhich (vegetarian) and soooo good. I've had my fair share of veggie sandwiches but this ... this is spectacular. THANKFULLY it's also a constant on the menu. You get a large sandwich and a soup or side. My favorite side is the house chips. Baked Lays, there's no room for you in here. You can check out their daily specials via the website (and they actually keep it updated). If you're a meat lover, they've got you covered. The Peach Gobbler sandwich is quite heavenly. All of their breads are fresh and have a way of just melting in your mouth. Expect to pay around $6.50 - $7.50, not including drink. Very reasonably priced given the quality. If you're more of a pizza guy, have no fear. They serve pizza by the slice for $1.25. In the med center and can't afford to park let alone eat? Then come over here for this option. Quite tasty as well. Overall thumbs up for this place. If you're on campus or even in the med center, I recommend you stop by and give it a chance. P.S. this isn't a student dining hall, it's geared towards visitors and staff.

It's always great to see meaningful representation of Asian culture being recognized and celebrated. The staff were friendly and helpful throughout our visit.
