The whole red snapper served on a sizzling comal at Tampico is a Houston tradition, even making Robb Walsh's list of 100 Favorite Houston Dishes at the No. 3 spot. You can get your snapper topped with frog legs if you like. Wrote Walsh of the experience: "The fish comes to the table on a hot comal with the onions underneath and the shrimp and frog's legs over the top. The sides of the fish are slashed and seasoned, and the cooking process makes the skin crispy. Thanks to the cuts, the fish meat comes away in nice big chunks. They give you hot tortillas too, so you can wrap up some fish tacos and douse them with a little hot sauce." Don't miss the shrimp fried rice, either -- like Connie's, it's incongruous but delicious.
