What’s better than one steakhouse? Three — or at least that’s how many the generative Houston-based restaurateur Benjamin Berg now runs in Space City. The New York native officially opened two new restaurants this week, including the Sylvie, an all-day cafe housed in Downtown’s Texas Tower. Turner’s Cut, the new Autry Park steakhouse slated to be the most opulent restaurant in Berg’s roster, opened to the public on Friday, June 28, with rare cuts of meat, sultry live music, and a sophisticated yet comfortable design. “It doesn’t feel like a steakhouse. It’s more like dining in a home, almost,” he tells Eater Houston.

Nicholas Heavican makes one of the city’s best croissants: It’s caramel-colored and shaped like a gibbous moon with an unmistakable smell — butter. Since 2018, when Heavican opened Nick and Sons Bakery in Williamsburg, customers have waited for his pastries in lines that snake down the block. They were so popular that in 2021, he opened another location in Spring Lake, New Jersey.

Do you know anyone who has dual nature? Such two-faced zodiac signs are friendly but they gossip about others behind their backs. They can lie to you without batting an eyelid. However, detecting a two-faced person isn’t easy for everyone. They often compliment their friends when they achieve a goal or change their wardrobe. But they will make negative remarks about you to someone else. What other traits do two-faced people have?

The dumplings come covered with sauces melding flavors from the Mediterranean, Mexico, Korea, China’s Sichuan province, and more.

The first time my family walked into a Ponderosa Steakhouse was in the late 1960s. It was new and the experience was great. Like other new restaurants, if the management doesn't stay on top, the quality of service can decline. The location we went to did change through the years, but in the beginning, it was great.

Dianne de Guzman is a deputy editor at Eater SF writing about Bay Area restaurant and bar trends, upcoming openings, and pop-ups. Chef Fernay McPherson debuted the second iteration of her restaurant Minnie Bell’s Soul Movement in the Fillmore District this past April, but now the original Emeryville location of the business is set to close as of Sunday, July 28. Located inside the Public Market on Shellmound Street, the soul food restaurant has called the Emeryville food hall home since 2018, first starting as a pop-up and then upgrading to a permanent kiosk. In a press release, McPherson says she decided to close the location “to focus all her efforts on her new restaurant in San Francisco’s Fillmore district, where she is a third-generation resident.”

According to Shakey's website, this pizza parlor is only in California, North Carolina, and Washington state in the U.S. now. This was my family's go-to pizza joint when my father was stationed with the Air Force outside of Omaha, Nebraska. We liked it so much, that when we were transferred again, it was hopeful we'd find another one.

One of the first things you learn when you start studying wine is that some of the most famous wines in the world are named for regions, not the grapes they are made from. You also learn that these wines are often blends rather than made from a single variety. For example, wines like Chianti, Bordeaux, and Rioja are so named for the region they come from and can be made from a mix of different grape varieties.
