Regions at a Glance
Houston & East Texas
Modern Art
Houston has several world-class museums. The Museum of Fine Arts Houston is certainly
not to be discounted, but the modern-leaning Menil Collection is one of a kind.
Foodie Favorites
The food scene in Houston is hot. You might dine on inspired organic creations at Haven,
French-Tex fusion at Philippe's or see what chef Monica Pope is up to at Sparrow Bar &
Cookshop.
Piney Woods
Leave the city to explore the Southern belle towns set among soaring pine forests up in the
northeast. Tyler is the rose capital of Texas, Nacogdoches the oldest (maybe), and Jefferson
boasts the most ghosts.
