They say the way to a man’s heart is through his stomach. Great gift ideas for Dad – as seen on Great Day Houston! Keep checking back on Goodtaste.tv for more ideas, tips and treats for him as we get closer to Father’s Day… 🙂
Raw Bar in a Box
Give Dad his personal raw bar at home. Order online from Island Creek Oysters…includes about 50 oysters, clams, shrimp, jar of minionette, jar of hot sauce.
Cast Iron Oyster Griller
Saw this at Sur la Table – very cool! Dad can grill his Gulf oysters without worrying about any of the delicacies sliding through the grate.
Big Daddy of All Wines – Cabernet
If Dad’s a wine lover, a special bottle would be a welcome gift…especially if steaks are on the grill. H-E-B’s Cabs For Dad SALE is June 17 – 23. All Cabs on sale 10% in Houston – an extra 10% when you buy six or more! In San Antonio, the sale is on ‘select’ Cabs.
Heart Healthy Steak
There’s a restaurant in town, a steak house called Harwood Grill, that only sells Akaushi beef. The beef was engineered by the Japanese over 100+ years to be heart healthy. It’s fatty composition is loaded with oleic acid (like olive oil), and is lower in cholesterol than chicken or pork.
Harwood Grill also has a meat counter where you can buy the raw product to-go to cook at home!
The Ultimate Grill
The Green Egg – you’ve probably seen these, but big time grillers will tell you it’s their favorite grill EVER. Available at Ferguson Plumbing locations.

Josh is the fastest growing brand in the United States and the #1 selling Cabernet under $20 in the state of Texas. Wayne Donaldson makes the wine and uses his 30 years of winemaking experience to craft the wines.
