One of the nicest (probably THE nicest) restaurants I have ever been to. The food is decadent, and you WILL want to spend your whole paycheck (ask me how I know lol). The wine is strong and the ambiance is spectacular. The waiters are top tier, which...

I like to joke that I moved to Texas for the Mexican Food. That was almost the full truth when I stepped into La Fogata. I am huge on ambiance, and this beautiful restaurant is teeming with it. With beautiful architecture, a regular mariachi band, hu...

Again, it just feels so incredible to be surrounded by nature. This garden has been in existence for over 100 years, making it a true San Antonio staple. It is a stark contrast from the concrete buildings.

Escape rooms are sooo fun, especially when lots of work and thought is put into building the rooms. This escape room has been dubbed ’the Disney World of escape rooms’.

Pottery painting is one of my favorite things to do, especially because you're not the one making the pottery- just personalizing it! Color Me Mine has a huge array of clay products, ranging from kitchenware and trinket boxes, to “gardening vases“, i...
