In fact, no tour I've taken anywhere ever encapsulated so much is so little time. The story form of telling the deepest History of Texas - via San Antonio's, was rather unique and left even this History Teacher impressed. Thanks.

They offer stunning and unique handblown custom art pieces; lamps, bowls, vases, rings - you name it! They have two locations in SA, one on the Riverwalk and one on South Alamo. Amazing products and demonstrations of art being created LIVE! I would add to the list of shopping – Garcia Art Glass.

I also work in the Pearl complex and can say it has become quite the hotspot for the live/work/play environment. I have to add a couple places to eat; W.D. Deli on Broadway has an enormous selection of sandwiches and an outside patio, Chris Madrid's on Blanco Rd. has one of the the best burgers in the city, and Demo's greek food on St. Mary's has affordable greek cuisine - all perfect lunch spots! You also HAVE to visit the renovated Japanese Tea Gardens near Brackenridge Park, as well as the Botanical Gardens (with the Carriage House Cafe for lunch) on Funston.

Can't believe I was steered by my daughter to this incredibly wonderful site!!! I was born there and still don't know all the cool spots for sure - this is a much needed update in my repertoire, although la fonda on main IS my earliest childhood memory! Wow!

I too grew up in San Antonio and love when it gets featured like this. My husband and I moved back for one year for him to attend the Culinary Institute of America(CIA) in the FULL GOODs building and is one of the main reasons for the Pearl Brewery revival - Visit the Pearl Farmer's Market on Saturday's and you just might catch a world class chef doing a demo right next to the rest of the seller's!
