Celebrities visiting Houston restaurants is nothing new. Most dine, pay, and move on without a fuss, though we sometimes see Shaq and Arnold.
Well, former NFL star Chad Johnson (better known to some as Ochocinco, remember?) Brought the fanfare. He dined at Thirteen, the fine-dining restaurant of NBA star (and ex-rocket) James Harden on Saturday, and although his bill was $ 107.17, he left a tip of $ 1,300. The amount is a nod to Harden’s number he now wears for the Brooklyn Nets (insert vomit emoji), while Johnson also left a note on his receipt saying “James Harden is scared to play me in FIFA”.
Harden took note of the tip and took up Johnson’s challenge on Instagram. Football brings everyone together.
More rankings! A travel guide to restaurants and other lifestyle foods, GAYOT has been named America’s Best Burger Restaurants in honor of National Burger Day (that was Friday). The first choice was Becks Prime on Kirby Drive. Becks, which has been family-owned since 1985 and runs several stores in the Houston area and one in Dallas, is known for a variety of burgers that are grilled over mesquite coals (you’ve probably smelled the air around a Becks Prime and are got hungry).
