Why this matters in Alamo Heights News
The feature of La Frite Belgian Bistro and Candy's Old Fashion Burgers on Texas Eats NOW brings attention to the diverse dining scene in San Antonio, particularly in the Southtown and downtown areas. La Frite's 17-year presence in Southtown has established it as a staple of European bistro culture, while Candy's has become a downtown institution with its old-fashioned burgers. The fact that both restaurants have been able to maintain a loyal customer base and thrive in their respective locations speaks to the strong support for local businesses in Alamo Heights and the surrounding areas. The emphasis on using fresh, local ingredients, such as the Prince Edward Island mussels at La Frite and the never-frozen local beef patties at Candy's, also highlights the importance of sourcing from local suppliers and contributing to the local economy. This commitment to quality and community is likely to resonate with residents of Alamo Heights who value unique dining experiences and supporting local establishments.
