On this episode of The Texas Bucket List, we appeal to our appetite and gustatory gusto with some of Texas’s more tantalizing varieties of libations and cuisine.
First, we whet our whistles on some wine from the oldest vineyard in Texas, the Val Verde Winery in Del Rio. These vines put down their first roots in 1883 and while they may not make the elixir of life, they’ve certainly aged well to bring you one award-winning beverage.
It’s certainly eat, drink, and be merry in San Angelo at Miss Hattie’s Restaurant and Cathouse Lounge! Our taste buds were yowling for the Miss Hattie Brothel Burger, featuring bacon, jalapenos, red peppers, and aioli mayo that will make you burn for another bite.
Next, we’re back in the vineyards as Mando Salas hearkens back to his hometown in his song “Del Rio.”
At the end of the day, nothing tastes better than home cooking – and in Sweetwater, you’ll get all the flavor of home-grown eats at Allen’s Family Style Meals. We finish off our taste-filled tour of Texas with all the fixin’s and some southern fried chicken, so crunchy and flavorful it just might beat your grandma’s recipe.
This Weekend on The Texas Bucket List – The State’s oldest wine, a bordello burger, and family style fried chicken!
