I'm down in Houston doing a 10-day IR out of Ellington. Anyone know any airport restaurants within 50-100 miles of KEFD?
DWH has a place and I think Brenham, 11R, to the west does as well.
Brenham's on-field restaurant is the best I've found in Texas.
We tried Brenham today -- and when we tuned the AWOS, there was an announcement that the restaurant was closed for maintenance until the day after Christmas. "Houston, we'll be low approach at Brenham and then diverting to Hooks." Lunch at Hooks was excellent -- highly recommended. Just remember to follow the signs to Gill FBO and study your taxi chart before you go and have it out when you land -- it's a bit confusing there.

Yes -- they came out and parked us among a pack of King Airs.The north end used to have a pretty welcoming transient ramp up near the restaurant. Is it still there?
Much earlier -- about 11:45 CST, on the RNAV 34 approach.was 2:15-2:30ish?
Um, I think you're talking about the same place I mentioned two replies up... :wink2:In addition to all those fine places mentioned, Brazoria County has a very nice on- field restaurant that is actually pretty spiffy.
