San Antonio Cooks

Favorite Recipes from Local Chefs and Restaurants

“San Antonio’s dining scene has risen beyond spicy stews and corn tortillas. Here, you’ll find Moroccan, French, Chinese, Japanese, Caribbean, Korean, New Orleanian, and classic Continental cuisines. Even within those labels, you’ll find creative inventions from the minds of chefs who love to eat. And isn’t that the goal of life? To enjoy what we do and share that pleasure with others? Let’s dig in.” —Introduction
