    i certainly believe there are great local restaurants, particularly in the BBQ genre.
    Chuck you are absolutely right. We do have some great local spots though. If you ever take a trip to Houston for business or otherwise please let me know.

    He is referring to restaurants on the level of French Laundry etc.

    No problems, I like Rudy's because they have decent prices and decent BBQ, I agree there is better in Tejas, but in my locale, thats good.

    Catalon (Houston) looks pretty good - definitely different

    Greens & Beans (Houston) underground dinner should also excite: early september HERITAGE dinner feeding curiosity

    There are quite a few high end restaurants in Austin.

    I believe the Driskill has been number one for the last few years. Then there is Aquarelle, Eddie V's, Jeffrey's, and a handful of others.

    Don't bother with Dallas or Houston.
