Our proposal location ❤️ Great place to have a picnic and enjoy the Houston skyline.

Our favorite park to run and relax! Trails, large fields, tennis courts, and dog friendly, too.

Where we go to kill time lol! Many new stores to window shop completely indoors with good food options nearby.

Great trendy shopping plaza with stores, restaurants, and desserts. Go shopping at Lulu, Sephora, CB2, have dinner at Tiger Noodle House, Sixty Vines, Torchy’s, or Rice Box, and finish with dessert at Sprinkles, Sweet Paris, or Van Leeuwen.

Our favorite board game cafe/coffee shop with a group of friends. We’ve even gone just the two of us lol 😂 So many games to choose from, but try Sabobatage, Spot It, Sequence, or Wavelength to start.

Another unique way to see the Houston skyline. Take a look at their showings and bring a blanket if it’s chilly!

Palace Social is a retro, nicer version of your neighborhood Dave & Buster's. It features bowling, arcade, and a nice dining area.

Fun place for a family or group outing. Super interactive games for everyone. Check out Katy Asiatown while you're in the area!

Everyone knows about Dun Huang Plaza, but they just recently opened a claw machine place there, and it is so fun, reminds us of Japan. Check it out after eating some good food in the plaza~

Okay, but have you really been to Houston if you didn’t go to a food hall? POST has so many great food options in a trendy venue with great rooftop skyline views. Other food hall options include Understory to check out the Houston tunnels, the Conservatory, and Bravery.

Easily our favorite boba place. Get the avocado pomelo cheese foam or the crème brûlée less sweet. For dessert, we also like MeetFresh, Happy Lemon, Yumcha, the Bep, Six Ping bakery, and Long Coffee.

Tasty sichuan food that has something for everyone, family style. Three locations in Houston, but we think this one is the prettiest. Try the cumin lamb, spicy crispy chicken, dry pot fish, and garlic bacon. You can't go wrong with anything.

The best Indian food, huge venue and still always packed. Himalaya is also very good, visited by Anthony Bourdain.

Super unique and customizable burgers in Galleria area.

Take us back to Vietnam with some trendy street food! Hem is a super popular, new restaurant that features classic Vietnamese street foods like razor clams, snail, salted egg oysters, and more.

We love this KBBQ place for the ambience and central location in Montrose, and their marinated short rib melts in your mouth! It is on the pricier side, so other good KBBQ options in Chinatown include Honey Pig for a la carte and Garosu or Handam for AYCE.

People may like Liuyishou, Shabu En, or Shabu Zone for hot pot, but we love XLK for the immersive vibe and quality meats. Not AYCE, but more quality food imo.

A local favorite sushi spot with a very generous happy hour from 3-6pm with BOGO appetizers. Be prepared to wait with a large group, but it is worth it! In Chinatown, Sushi Miyagi is another authentic mom-and-pop store (only open during lunch) and Iwa Ya also has good value.

Our go-to pho place in Chinatown. Authentic, flavorful pho that is always bustling with people. We also like Pho Saigon in Midtown, Pho Binh, Sapa, and (our secret favorite) Pho Quynh in 99 Ranch.

Our favorite dim sum place with the best egg yolk custard buns in Houston. Can’t miss! Next door, go to Linda's Tropical Fruit for some refreshing nuoc mia.

We also go to Crown Seafood and Fung's Kitchen for traditional pushcarts.

Yummy sushi handrolls in a bar setting. Cute and intimate for a fun date night. Hando and NoriNori are also very good.

Want something a little more fancy? Delicious small plates to share with the table -- think tapas but Japanese fusion. Lol no pictures bc the food was too good! Must tries: Wagyu skewers, foie gras, and the cocktails. They also have a new sister sushi restaurant, Katami. Always packed, get a reservation online if you can!

How about drinks and games? Flight Club is a fun place for a group to play darts while having some drinks and light snacks. Definitely get a reservation for a big group in the evening, as this place gets booked up.

There are lots of great bars in Midtown, but we like this one for the indoor/outdoor seating and the lights. If it’s not for you, you can hop over to nearby bars, like Dogwood, Unicorn Disco, or chill at Social Beer Garden.

Okay, just one shot... Night’s not over until we go to One Shot! Our favorite pocha karaoke bar with genuinely good Korean food. Come for soju and beer towers and stay for the rose tteokboki and spicy pork belly.
