The "Masterpieces of French Painting from the Metropolitan Museum of Art: 1900-1920"  is one of the most important exhibits we have had in Houston this year.  The Museum of Fine Arts Houston's permanent collection is fantastic and with the addition of this exhibit, it's the ideal moment to dedicate a day to this beautiful museum and peruse the works of famous painters like Cezanne, Seurat, Manet, and Monet (just to name a ...

Driving over to the small spiky metal structure, I was unsure of what to expect.  I have been to the Art Car Parade many times, an event that should not be missed while visiting Houston (this year it is on May 12), but I've never stopped at the museum.  The museum has always seemed so eye-catching but small that I would have never thought it would be able to contain the essence of ...

When visiting Houston, at first glance one may think that there is not a truly concentrated area with things to do but in reality that is not true at all.  If you are staying in downtown, you can hop on the Metrorail and take it down to the museum district to enjoy a variety of museums and activities.  Or when the Hotel Za Za opens, you can just step out ...

Fresh and ecclectic music plays in the background as you talk the night away with your buddies at their outdoor-patio. Helios is located in the Montrose district of Houston, which gives Helios a very diverse and open-minded crowd. Greet fellow patrons at the next table over and be prepared for a quick transition into a conversation. Oh and did I mention that they have a ballroom upstairs? That's right, you can tango and ...

Before anything else, I am a poet. I write and speak about "truth" however unattainable that concept is. So I speak about my truth, the truth that I know; and the best place to express those ideas, to me, are at the Project Row Houses in Third Ward (downtown). The neighborhood is infamous and can be labeled as the 'ghetto', but to me the place is rich with culture and ...

Me and my friends just love to chill and relax, we're not the types who go out to typical nightclubs. We like to looouuunnnnge. So we found a place called the Underground Lounge, which is located in the basement of one of Houston's oldest hotels, situated in downtown. We went in and immediattely felt the unique and vibrant atmosphere. This, we thought, was our ...

If you are looking for great food with reasonable prices and would also like to experience a unique culture, I recommend you check out Mi Luna's on University Boulevard near next to the Rice University campus.
