SAN ANTONIO – A year has passed and Flavor Favs has been all over town trying out some of San Antonio’s favorite restaurants. Over the past couple of years, San Antonio’s food scene has grown immensely. It's a trend that shows no signs of slowing down.
While the emerging culinary scene is great for the city, older and smaller mom-and-pop restaurants carry on much of the culture and tradition. Many of the places Flavor Favs profiled had a genuine feeling of being at home and eating with your family.
