I love your website and learn a lot of information about Taiwan and Japan which is our next trip in October.
I was in Spore last year so thank you for posting some notes about your country, I missed that place.

I am a Filipino American who lives in Houston, Texas and who have lived here for 20 plus years.
Anyhow thank you for visiting Tejas, please next time visit Houston, Austin and San Antonio!

Happy Travelling!

Chris

[…] chicken quesadillas gave a sense of déjà vu of my trip to Texas almost two years ago. I so miss the colourful Tex-Mex food and it was a nice surprise to be able to […]

Oh, I checked them all out and even recognized many of the places you took photos of. The cool looking building with the mideval castle look is the courthouse in downtown dallas and I have passed it many times. It almost looks like if the Judge rules against you there they might take you to the dungeon downstairs.
I am glad I was able to live through your pics vicariously and get a quick glimpse of my old stomping grounds

As for obesity, we certainly have plenty of “big uns” here. I am blessed with a high metabolism and can eat the big portions and still keep my slender build

Hey Don, I’m with you that tex-mex food is among the best in the world. Thanks for the recommendations! I do wish to make a trip to Dallas again some day. It holds special meaning for me, being the first and only city I’ve visited in the US.

I hope you would check out my posts on the remaining of the trip. There are many more colourful photographs of the food.

And now I really do miss the place!

Was doing a search for authentic Tex Mex cuisine in the Buffalo,NY area and came across your site and it made me a bit homesick. I was born and raised in the Dallas Ft Worth area and spent my whole life there until recently moving to Buffalo and now I can’t find anything that resembles the mexican food I have been eating my whole life. I am glad you had a good experience in my home town and that you got to taste some of the best food in the world IMO. Good luck to you and I hope you get to visit Dallas again.If you do, I would suggest you try Luna De Nocha in North Dallas and Uncle Julio’s too. Next time you are there also try some BBQ ribs at Spring Creek

Thanks, wY, for the snippet of info! It was really refreshing to see those signboards because we don’t have any of those around here, while I keep spotting them on American TV or movies!

Hey Cobalt Paladin, what a unique nick you have! Wow I sure am glad to hear from a fellow Heroes fan! There aren’t too many in Singapore. Our little island is mostly obsessed with another little island.

Hiro is adorable! I don’t really have a favourite hero yet, although I do like the cheerleader. And Mohinder is one beautiful man!

Isn’t America the most obese nation in the world? They should really consider reducing their food portions! I finished half the food I ordered most of the time when I was there. The cold weather somehow made us feel hungry so we ate quite a bit. I haven’t weighed myself since I returned but I’m pretty sure I gained some. Argh!

about the diner’s signboard, i think they have someone to climb up and change it daily.

in paris hilton’s the simple life , she and nicole were working in a diner and they had to change the words on the signboard in the morning.

Yeah! I totally dig Hiro’s power. I think Heroes is the best new series coming out of America. I hope its popularity can sustain so that we’ll have many seasons of Heroes!

Erm… did you put on weight? The American portions are really gigantic. I put on like 3kg while I was there for just 2 weeks!

FinAir’s attendants are even older than my dad LOL!

And their butts are huge so when I was sitting at the aisle seat, their bottoms swinged into my face a couple of times when they served the food.

Damn!

haha i don’t actually have a problem with old flight attendants (i’m not a guy anyway so i don’t care whether or not they are attractive). but it does seem that the older they are, the more crappy the service gets. i think asian airlines are a safe bet though.

an american friend was telling me that american airline companies are stuck with ugly, old stewardess because of union regulations. some european airlines have such regulations too, not to discriminate old and ugly people. hehehe~

the trip looks fun though~
