The Texas Foodie Spring 2020 | Page 31

Wells, Texas 1968. And rightly so, with the best burgers around. And if you love a great food challenge, they have one that’ll certainly put your best competition eating skills to the test. It’s called, The Meat Monster. It’s a mile-high burger stacked with 4 beef patties, chicken, ham, bologna, bacon and cheese. Eat the whole thing along with the fries in 20 minutes and it’s free!   Bistro by day and seasonal patio with live music by night, the Brazos Market & Bistro has been crafting amazing eats since 2010. With ever-changing off-menu specials like Gouda Grits and Mahi Banh Mi Spring Rolls or Avocado Quail Burgers with Wagyu Patty and a Fried Egg, the Bistro is a treat for all your senses. Follow them on Facebook to see what’s on the daily special or enjoy a menu mainstay like the Grow Up Grilled Cheese.  Looking for a breakfast that puts ordinary biscuits and gravy to shame? Let me introduce you to the Twisted Biscuit. Topped with sausage gravy, hash browns, a cooked-to-order egg and cheese, this Happy Days Diner favorite will have you doing the Be Bop Alula. While you wait for your meal to arrive, take in some local history in this ’50s style diner. Don’t forget to try some ice cream before you go. A little thirsty after all that yum? Stop by the Famous Water Company, a.k.a. Crazy Water, for a Crazy Soda made with the waters that made us famous. Or head over to Coffee & Cocktails @ 76067 for a handcrafted cocktail like the Old Baker or the Grand Lady Lemonade.
