My Ideal Eating Day in Houston | Bon Appétit

"Houston’s a taco city, and those at La Guadalupana on Dunlavy are no joke. It’s a cozy little family-run joint that shares a slip of a strip mall with a convenience store and a laundromat. The mole poblano boasts a complexity of flavors that deserves its own essay, but the charro-bean-laced tacos al carbon are incredible as well, and smoky. The owner and head chef, Trancito Diaz, will be sure to stop by everyone’s table for a quick what’s-up. The coffee’s so strong that it’d wake the dead, brewed with just the barest hint of cinnamon." - ByBryan Washington
