25 Best Things to Do in Houston (Texas
"This splendid six acre dining and entertainment complex was made even more amazing by the amalgamated redevelopment of two of Houston’s landmarks, the Central Waterworks Building and Fire Station No.1. Now with plenty of room to house its 500,000 gallon aquatic wonderland with 200 species of exotic global residents, it is a great attraction for all the family, and especially the kiddies as they can enjoy the fun aquarium’s rides, from Frog Hopper to Shark Voyage and Aquatic Carousel. There are plenty of treats for the adults too as the venue includes shopping, an upscale bar, full-service restaurant, a fully equipped ballroom and geographic and aquatic exhibits."

"Come to Peli Peli for inspired South African food served in a relaxed and fun environment that you’ll keep visiting over and over again. Patrons swear by the bobotie, a spicy meat and egg dish much like shepherd’s pie, but with stronger flavors. The seafood selection is also amazing – they peel and prepare prawns right at the table."
