About Texas Cuisine

If you are not from Central Texas and you are planning to move here, there are certain things you should plan on doing.  Touring the Alamo, visiting the Dallas area, seeing the infamous grassy knoll, and without a doubt, experiencing some of that big Texas food the state is so famous for are just a few “must do” items. Now, sometimes things don’t go as planned and you may not have the time to make it to San Antonio for the Alamo and maybe you’ll think twice about reliving one of the darkest chapters in American history, but indulging in some Texas cuisine is definitely something you need to make time to do.

As the old saying goes, “everything is bigger in Texas.”  That could not be truer when talking about the portion sizes you will receive at almost any eating establishment in Bryan College Station.  Let’s start with some good ole’ Texas grade steaks.  It is commonly known that there are more places in Texas where you will find yourself asking for a doggy bag to finish the rest later, than probably anywhere in the country.  Large sirloins, big strip steaks and T-bones the size of porterhouses is one reason why Texas is king when it comes to beef.

Now, you can’t say you've truly experienced Brazos Valley cuisine unless you've enjoyed some authentic Mexican food and/or Tex-Mex. Stop in almost any city in Texas and you will find an abundance of real Mexican food restaurants to choose from. I am not talking about places that call themselves a Mexican Restaurant because they serve margaritas, but actual, true down to the last ingredient Mexican restaurants. Then you have the grandfather of cuisine fusion, Tex-Mex. Again, you will not find a shortage of businesses to please your taste buds in this area either.  The style of blending traditional Texas inspired foods with authentic Mexican food has created one of the most desired foods in Texas.

With all the great food to try, it is very easy to pack on the pounds if you’re not careful. So, enjoy yourself, just not too much, remember… you have all that unpacking to do.
