‘Top Chef: Houston’ Recap: Episode 13 - Eater Houston

"The episode begins with a lesson from Carlotta Flores, the owner of El Charro Cafe, which is not only the country’s oldest Mexican restaurant, but it’s also home to the chimichanga and the most famous carne seca — thinly-sliced meat that is dried in the sun. In their last Quickfire competition of the season, chefs are required to make a meal using carne seca." - Brittany Britto Garley
