Visitors to Texas may think of Austin as the state's coolest spot, but this tale of a visit to an illegal, underground Cameroonian fish restaurant shows off some of Houston's charms. "I don't even remember if we were given the option of utensils, but it was easier to sort through the flaky white flesh and bone this way anyway. When it was all over and done, an entire roll of used paper towels littered the table and our distant Cameroonian acquaintance came by to collect our well-spent money." [Oxford American]
