Houston’s 16 Most Iconic Restaurants | Eater Houston

"This iconic Oaxacan institution, which has been open in Houston since the early 1980s, is a local standby for its earthy, chile-spiked, and highly regional Mexican fare. For a classic take on pollo en mole negro Oaxaqueño, a chicken quarter is drenched in a thick, dark, rich Oaxacan-style black mole — the result of an eight- to 10-hour cooking process involving an extensive list of ingredients. The mole-swathed chicken gets sprinkled with toasted sesame seeds and is served with rice, refried black beans, and tortillas aplenty, making for a truly satisfying dining experience." - Marcy de Luna
