Kristine Mills entertained revelers and patrons as they raised a glass to Pappas Bros. Brothers Chris and Harris Pappas celebrated a “Grand Award” from Wine Spectator Magazine. Fabulous bites included: lamp chops, cream of mushroom soup with truffle mousse, Texas brisket with foie gras, tuna tartar, carpaccio, and of course wine. Pappas joins a very elite group in receiving the Grand Award. The Pappas Bros wine collection, organized by Drew Hendricks, consists of 33,000 bottle and 3,000 wines. Pappas Bros. is Texas’ only Grand Award winner.
OMG and Pappas for seafood has great wine. But I sure do wish there was a nice California cabernet sauvignon offered at their Mexican food restaurant, Pappasitos. A cabernet from Argentino seems to be the only choice for a cabernet wine if you are dining on the southeast side of Houston. But, Pappas Bros. dining still remains to be one of the best, and you can’t beat the flan -it’s excellent.
