| The Kitchen at the Dunlavy |
For months, my run (or stroll) in the Buffalo Bayou would take me past Lost Lake and a structure being built so beautifully into the surrounding landscape. The much awaited restaurant
The Kitchen at the Dunlavy is now open! For all the months of waiting and wondering, the new Houston restaurant did not disappoint. As you walk into the space, you feel as though you've stumbled into the home of a wood nymph. The floor to ceiling windows bring in light that dances off of the dozens of eclectic crystal chandeliers. It's nickname as "The Glass Treehouse" is well deserved. Along with the bright light, diners are on level with the tree foliage surrounding the structure. There is indoor and outdoor seating available. While I sat inside, the light and greenery made me forget that I was not in fact in the open air.

The Kitchen at the Dunlavy is the perfect place to grab a smoothie after a morning run, to enjoy a long conversation over a leisurely lunch, or to order a meal to take as a picnic in the Park! I'm sure you'll find me there with a sketchbook on many a morning. . . so stop by and say hello!

In the very recent past Led Flashlight technology has become more accessible to homes and businesses as the costs have dropped and construction has improved. The fact that this type of bulb uses so very little energy to produce light makes solar Led Flashlight a perfect fit. It is highly economically to burn Led Flashlight with electricity for huge savings on your electric bill.
