@timmah2723 3 года назад

I was born in Houston, moved to Austin for college, and now live in Dallas. Houston has by FAR the best food scene of the three, partly because of the fact that it’s a big port city. It has probably the best Vietnamese in the country and also has unbelievable Chinese, Japanese, Indian, middle eastern, Greek, Cajun, and (obviously) Mexican. If you want BBQ, Austin is where you go. Austin has a bunch of other really good restaurants, but it’s just not big enough compared to the other two cities to compare overall. Dallas has an amazing Thai scene-no idea why. It doesn’t have much that stands out to me in general other than that, but I’d say it has better food than Austin overall (besides BBQ) just because of the difference in size and diversity.
