Hot Town Cool City--Houston tonight on PBS






Absense has certainly made this heart grow fonder, and many of the spots featured on this film will tell you why. Click this post title for the link to the show's website and more info on some of Houston's best loved places, many of which I spent more than my fair share of time at. It's almost exactly a year since we departed and I'd happily drive 900 miles back for one more afternoon of reading, writing, habanero pepper chicken salad and iced hazelnut in the courtyard at Brasil (the unmarked and unrivaled insider favorite cafe at Westheimer and Dunlavy where poet Mark Doty is interviewed on this program.) Shown above: Brasil, the art car parade, the Water Wall, Allen Parkway and the city.
