Houston Coffee Shop Series No. 10

Happy November everyone! I am sooo happy we've been having some chilly days these past few weeks. It's been nice pulling out my sweaters and boots and not completely sweating while drinking hot coffee - haha!

This past month was so much fun! There were tons of new restaurants that we got to visit including Shun, Shell Shack, The Roastery, Slurp Ramen Factory, and Postino WineCafe, and we also got to visit some veteran restaurants that have been on the map for quite some time like Sammy's Wild Game Grill, Tacos a Go Go, and Armadillo Palace.

We're looking forward to another great month of exploring new restaurants for y'all. As always, please continue to send us recommendations! We take note of almost all the recommendations we receive and try our best to up the ones that excite our tastebuds.

Alright, I am pretty excited to share the three coffeeshops I visited this past month, one of which is brand-spanking-new! So here we go!
