If you ever find yourself in San Antonio and are looking for real mesquite smoked barbecue, there is one place that should be on the top of your list: Texas Pride BBQ. It’s arguably the best barbecue restaurant in San Antonio, TX. Don’t just take my word for it, they’ve won a bunch of awards and have even been featured on Guy Fieri’s Tripple-D!

If you’re looking for a fun way to feed the whole family, and bring along your pets, look no further than Food Truck Monday at Hollywood’s Arts Park at Young Circle. The Miami Food Truck schedule brings them every Monday night from 5:30 – 9:30 PM. An army of Miami’s famous food trucks descend on Hollywood to satisfy even the most discerning foodies’ cravings. There are usually 20-30 trucks in one location that offer everything from Italian staples to exotic Korean fusion delights. After visiting several times over the past few months we decided to share this great event and tell you about some of our favorite trucks!
