From the Gutt: The tagline here says it all: "Honest talk about food and wine." And honest talk it is. Take this excerpt from a recent post: "It is important to dispel the snotty attitude a lot of winos have. It's also important to dispel the notion that writing about wine needs to be condescending. No jargon. No attitude." I love it.
Great Food Houston: If you enjoy reading our own Ruthie Johnson's work here at Eating Our Words, you'll enjoy her personal food blog too, with its highly casual, spunky and personable approach to dining out in Houston.
The Grub Junkie: While it isn't updated too terribly often, The Grub Junkie is simply too great of a blog name to ignore. Also, where else are you going to read about a foodie's admission that they need to go on a food detox...and then read along as they actually do it?
Guns and Tacos: The infamous Jay Rascoe is known for many things: getting Chingo Bling to accompany him to taco trucks, Twitter-stalking Chamillionaire, organizing popular taco truck crawls and...guns. Think of Jay as a young Robb Walsh, with more emphasis on ammunition and less on cow heads.
H-Town Chow Down: Albert Nurick can be a controversial blogger, inciting plenty of back-and-forth on Twitter and his comments sections, but that's part of the reason we enjoy reading his posts. Another part of it is the fact that he's one of the rare food bloggers to routinely cover The Woodlands, his home turf.
Homesick Texan: Lisa Fain is not technically a Houston food blogger. That is, she no longer resides in Houston. But the transplanted New Yorker writes primarily about the food in her home state and hometown, all the better to educate the world about our culinary wealth.
Houston Foodie: J.C. Reid (Chris to his friends) was once an Eating Our Words contributor and now writes for 29-95, but that doesn't stop him from updating his personal food blog and going after meaty stories like KHOU's recent "hatchet job" on food trucks.
Houston Uncorked: Although you may think this is just another wine blog, Houston Uncorked also reviews restaurants. Mandee is currently pregnant and therefore not updating very frequently, but I hope she'll return to her wine writing once she's free to drink wine again.
Houston Wok: Although it's only been around for a little over a year, Houston Wok is one of my favorite food blogs to feature in our weekly blog roundup. That's because David is a devoted blogger who always shares easy yet exotic recipes with plenty of background on the dishes and ingredients. Never a dull read.
Hummingbird Tongues: Rachael blogs primarily about cooking and baking adventures in her kitchen, with posts written almost like freeform poetry. The undulating prose is captivating to read, as much as her beautifully shot photos are captivating to behold.
