Stortini on the East Side

There was a time when you went east on Manor past IH35 to find either East Side Cafe with its tasty fresh food (and garden, show here) or to find some authentic family Tex-Mex. Manor is now home to Hoover's Home Cooking, some more fancy pants Tex-Mex ventures and Stortini, an Italian place. The decoration of the place is interesting. There are desert plants outside which might hint at a Tex-Mex past. The door handle was shaped like a giant horseshoe. Inside a geometric wallpaper, a bunch of small cheap chandeliers and old mirrored vanity trays and other mirrors on every wall somehow made the statement that now you were someplace else. I had lunch there Wednesday and I was quite impressed with it. Have to try dinner there soon.
