Salt & Straw
Ice Cream Shop
This place is famous for its long lines and creative ice cream flavors. Actually, one car drove by and exclaimed "it's not worth it!" at us and our fellow line-standees. Fortunately the line moves quickly, after 15 minutes we were able to decide that for ourselves. As expected by the name, the ice cream is very salt forward. Salt sensitivity varies by person, so it may not be for everyone. I found the almond brittle ganache and chocolate chip ice cream delicious. My boyfriend...not so much. Serving sizes are generous. The two of us had difficulty finishing two scoops.

Ultimately, I wasn't very impressed. There were some amazing dishes (hummus! Fried cauliflower!) but most dishes were pretty average, for a tasting menu.

Absolutely delicious - my friend described it as the most authentic Indian restaurant in Houston. Can't speak to authenticity but I can vouch for it's tastiness!

So happy I got to try this new matcha/hojicha based dessert shop here in Houston. The matcha soft serve is everything matcha ice cream should be. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Got the lunch combo: ramen, an appetizer, and tea for $14. The ramen broth and toppings were tasty, but the noodles were gummy and overcooked. The appetizers were both good.

Avanti Food and Beverage is a great hangout spot in Denver! They have a few food vendors and a lot of open space to chill. It's a little pricey because you are paying for the trendy atmosphere. I ❤️ arepas and you can't go wrong with fried plantains either!

Okay, the atmosphere is super cute. It's like eating at an Anthropologie. But their flavors of their Vietnamese/French fusion dishes aren't worth the ridiculously small servings and expensive prices!! The banh mi was $16 and the two tiny bao were $14 😑. I would only come back to splurge on a coffee and canele and enjoy the ambience.
