In this weekend\u2019s episode of \u201cEat Like a Local\u201d<\/a>, host Chris Shepherd heads to one of Houston\u2019s most dynamic dining destinations: the Heights. <\/p>\n

Chilosos Taco House | 701 E. 20th St.<\/p>\n

Chris\u2019 first stop is a breakfast\/lunch go-to: Chilosos Taco House<\/a>. Founded by Gloria Myers and now run by her children, the restaurant has built a loyal following thanks to its commitment to quality and tradition. <\/p>\n

The star of the show? Their tortillas. Freshly baked and impossibly fluffy, they\u2019re the foundation for a wide variety of tacos that keep regulars coming back. Chris\u2019s recommendation is of course to get the tacos, but his sleeper pick is the chilaquiles.<\/p>\n

At Camaraderie, acclaimed pastry chef Shawn Gawle is stepping beyond sweets and bringing his high-level technique to the savory side. The result is a neighborhood spot that feels approachable yet elevated. <\/p>\n
