The first thing anyone should do when in the arrive here is find the nearest Alamo Drafthouse and go see a movie. This place is the mecca of movie theatres. I first heard about it in 2001, and on my trip to Texas in 2006 it was the only thing that made it worth my visit.

What can I say about my hometown? Hmm, well to start off, Houston is probably 1 of the worst travel spots one could possibly imagine. Sure, NASA is nearby but to be honest, it is a waste of time and will only hurt your feet. There is not much to do in Houston besides eat. This factors into why we're one of the fattest cities in the whole entire galaxy. Yep, nothing here but humidity, heat, endless chains of restaurants, and streets littered with ugly ugly people and their children who are products of a public school system that tragically fails at producing intellectuals. And naturally, this is where my family decided to settle. I'm not bias, these opinions have been reiterated to me by friends and family that have come to visit only to never come visit again. We literally have nothing to do here. Don't even bother with going to the nearby beach in Galveston. God bless you if you have the guts to swim in the waves of waste known as The Gulf of Mexico. Seaweed and dead jellyfish line the beaches while a wind of sewage smell blows in spontaneously from all directions. Houston is definitely more of a working town than a tourist spot. The houses here are cheap and the weather is unpredictable. Our winters are hot and are summers are completely spent inside. Some pros about living in Houston are cheap housing and that our hordes of mosquitoes are malaria-less (although there was an uprising of the West Nile virus a couple years back). If you want to have that genuine "Texas" feel, don't go to Houston. Most of our population consists of wannabe entrepreneurs that couldn't make it in a legitimate big city and settled for "the bayou city." Oh yeah, I also find it funny that we boast the nickname, "the bayou city," as if it sounded any better than "city of the sewers." Anyways, I think you readers get the point. My advice about traveling to Houston is to travel to Dallas instead.

what a burger!!don't mess with texas!

Raw is one of the best places for sushi! And its always full of gorgeous people.

Possibly the best and the cheapest sushi bar in Houston, if not in the whole US, is located on the corner of Nance and William Street, close to UHD campus.

You must eat at Goode Company Barbecue on Kirby. It is the best in town. Get the pecan pie, too.

Houston have good fast food restaurants people who live in Houston really friendly

Downtown Houston pretty much shuts down at 6:00pm, by 8:00 it is almost impossible to find a restaurant open.

Houston is a big city
but i can handle it.

Vic and Anthony's the best steak house I have ever been in plus the extended wine list is something else, 1900 variants!
