Thanks ever so much, Bob. The links you've provided are ever so
helpful, and I've saved them for future reference when/if needed.
Christie's on Westheimer near the Galleria would be very close to the
"West 610 Loop" isn't it? Alas, I don't believe Spouse and I'll get
that close "in town" since we'll go the "outside" from N. Houston
towards FM 1960 and Katy or more ? We just might get close to Bellaire
& Hwy 6, but that's a 'big if'. I used to live in Houston (a few
decades & lifetimes ago), and I remember one of my favorite places was a
greek restaurant/oyster bar (?), "Papa....." something or another, off
of the SW Freeway not far from Bellaire or Bissonnet (sp?) or Fondren,
but I forget the details. I imagine it's gone the wayside?

I have printed the information you've given to take on our journey, just
in case. Thanks again for the recommendations
