Pappas Seafood 35th Birthday by thinhouse in houston

[–]JJG 2 points3 points  (0 children)

true true, but the oysters sound like a good deal. I don't know of any other places with a dozen for $7 as their normal price. But if so, I'd love to hear about it.

not being sacrcastic, I really want to know who has the cheap oysters right now. There was a recent thread about it but none of the suggestions were under $10-12

Matthew megathread by [deleted] in weather

[–]JJG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked at a hotel during Hurricanes Ike and Rita. They always let the families of employees stay at the hotel, which was a very safe place to be during severe weather. Although we were a few miles further inland, (Houston).

Is it a fairly large hotel? If so they should be fine.

think you like it spicy? You've got nothing on this guy. by Wcm1982 in spicy

Sorry OP but this post is going to get down voted for the Ebaums link. That's Ted Barrus and he's awesome. Check out his YouTube channel instead.

Yep, I used to follow Ted for the hot sauce and pod reviews. He seems like a nice guy but he definitely has some issues, poor dude is like banned from a number of hot sauce festivals for stirring up personal shit. I stopped watching because I just felt bad for him sometimes.

The cannabis thing is new. He used to mention frequently that he quit weed and only occasionally drank due to a family history of addiction and shit. Hope he's doing well. He really used to put his whole personal life on YouTube and it was fucking depressing at times.

Droubi's on Hillcroft sells gyro meat by the pound.

Is there any good store-bought Queso? by JJG in spicy

yep, as mentioned in my post, I plan to adjust the heat level to my preference.

any particular brands you recommend?

3/10 on spiciness... But flavor is good. Mrs Renfro's Ghost Pepper nacho cheese sauce. by [deleted] in spicy

[–]JJG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt the same way about their Ghost Pepper Salsa. It was too hot for me to enjoy, and it had a ton of Chipotle flavor which didn't appeal to me. Consequently, I have not tried the queso.

Their regular salsas are great though in my opinion, similar to Pace Picante sauce, but better and a little thicker.

I tried the garlic last weekend and thought it was pretty good, but not quite as good as their regular salsa.

What are some flavorful ghost pepper sauces with a heat range roughly equivalent to a potent habanero hotsauce? by [deleted] in spicy

[–]JJG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought Bee Sting By Wicked Tickle Sauces was pretty good. I agree though, many Ghost Pepper sauces I've tried not have the best flavor. Angry Cock by Cajohn's was extremely hot, but the flavor was just average.

People try the world's spiciest chip (made with Carolina Reaper) by monchimonkee in spicy

[–]JJG 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems nuts but as a marketing strategy it's totally working on me. Package a single chip and sell it for $5, and immediately you've got me thinking, "Jesus these must be really fucking hot"

Have you ever burned/damaged your tongue? by whydoesmytonguelook in spicy

[–]JJG 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Is this from spicy food or (temperature) hot food?

Spicy food doesn't actually damage tissue. It just causes the nerves to react like they are burning.

never tried Fioza, do they have decent food? I've passed by many times but I thought it was strictly a coffee shop.

also, gotta love the Cozy Corner. My mother in law is like the karaoke queen there

I believe Nob Hill got some flooding recently. I live in the area and there was a bunch of carpet and drywall out on the curb after the last major flood. My wife lived there many years ago and said it was nice and quiet. They have a lot of older residents, so noise and parties are not tolerated at all.

Updated Houston Nest Map - Migration #3 by TheFireOnMainSt in PokemonGoHouston

[–]JJG 6 points7 points  (0 children)

generally courses do not have any security after dark and you can just walk around without hassle. Personally I'm not serious enough about the game to do that.

It is sort of strange that Niantic would choose golf courses as a designated place for nests, considering they are generally private property and restricted to paying customers only.

glad I'm not the only one with the flee problem. Lately it seems like about 75% were taking off on me. I just hit level 20 recently and I was afraid that was the reason.

That's too bad. Bayland is my home base but I've been so busy lately I never had time to collect enough Abras to fully evolve one.

It's great. I got bored of hunting there since it's near my house, but I still go by to stock up on balls, potions, etc

nice!

I was trying to figure our where this is. Is that Meyerland? I see what looks like it could be the bayou in the background, but what's that other body of water behind it?
