| About: | "No Texas restaurant is more passionately local than Chef Monica Pope's new venture, t'afia." Gourmet Magazine, January 2005 CHEF MONICA POPE * James Beard Award Nominee, Best Chef/Southwest, 2007 * The only Texas woman chef to be named a Top 10 Best New Chef by Food & Wine Magazine, 1996 "As a chef, I have spent the last 13 years cooking in one place - Houston, Texas. My cooking style has developed organically from certain fundamental truths: first, what grows together goes together, and, second, that food simply tastes better when you eat where your food lives. For over ten years, I have supported local farmers, ranchers and food producers, and also helped found the Midtown Farmers Market (held at t'afia every Saturday)- these producers' efforts form the heart and soul of t'afia." |

User Rating: 5 out of 5 starsInventive Fusions That Work!: This is a great restaurant with an Art Deco interior and atmosphere. The food is very creative and the fusions created by Chef Monica Pope really work! If you can't image how soba noodles, greens and pine nuts could ever go together, or if you've ever wondered what avocado sashimi taste like, I urge you to take a walk on the wild side and give it a try. You will be most certainly glad you did!
BTW - "t'afia" comes from the creole word "ratafia," which is a fortified wine made with seasonal produce. The word "t'afia is also used as a toast and has two meanings: "To your health" and "The deal is done".
