"Award-winning chef Emmanuel Chavez offers Mexican cuisine with an emphasis on the breadth of maize at one of Houston’s few tasting menu restaurants. Make your reservation at the discreet Spring Branch spot Wednesday through Saturday, and prepare yourself for perfect bites of quesadilla, ceviche, and Chavez’s signature plantain tortilla served over a tempura sweet potato and a silky mole. The restaurant fee is BYOB, so if imbibing, don’t forget your own bottle, which comes with a $25 corkage fee. Otherwise, Tatemo offers a selection of non-alcoholic drinks, including Topo Chico, canned tepache, and Mexican Coke." - Kayla Stewart
