McAdoo’s Crawfish Chili Relleno.
It’s finally starting to feel GOOD outside! We’ve been spending most of this glorious time of year on the road with our production team visiting all kinds of fantastic restaurants. You can catch our delicious adventures every week on our TV show, Goodtaste with Tanji.
EL MACHITO
Carnivores, you’ll love our visit to the over-the-top El Machito in the Alamo City. This little hot spot sizzles with its giant, custom-made grill surrounded by a colorful Mexican altar. Their poblano chorizo sausage is a memory I’ll cherish for a long time—delish!
Star Chef Johnny Hernandez has restaurants in San Antonio, Las Vegas and London, yet wanted a unique place to showcase grilled meats – the authentic way – cooked over wood and open flame. El Machito hits all the marks!
We’ll share how to make one of the restaurant’s most popular marinades this weekend!
MCADOO’S
Meet the brunch spot everyone in Texas is talking about! Have it made at McAdoo’s, a beautiful restaurant in New Braunfels that’s housed in a 100-year old federal post office building. Now, instead of mail delivery, their specialty is delicious Texas Cajun style cuisine. This cool venue also features a raw seafood bar and quaint New Orleans style patio, complete with live music on the weekends. 🙂
Who could forget about their towering Bloody Mary bar…so elaborate! Over 30 different condiments to make yours just the way you like it.
Check out the beautiful Tilapia Florentine [above], a gorgeous creation with sautéed snow crab fingers, spinach and Roma tomatoes in a silky parmesan cream.
JAX GRILL
If you’re planning to catch a few games this weekend, Jax Grill is a laid back hangout to do just that. The food at Jax Grill isn’t only fun, it’s fantastic! That’d be Houston American food that’s made to order with prices so friendly you’ll feel right at home! Steaks, seafood, salads–and a long list of daily specials keep this neighborhood place hopping.
If you’re really up for an adventure, you’ll want to dive in to the Jax Sack, a dark chocolate sack filled with luscious treats like yellow cake, fresh berries and homemade whipped cream.
