The Food Lab: Where Science Meets Sandwiches
Let's start with the obvious: The Food Lab. Now, don't let the name fool you. This isn't some sterile, white-coated experiment. It's a culinary playground! With options like Outer Crust (pizza, obviously), Velocity Grill (burgers, fries, the classic American comfort), and Galaxy Greens (for those health-conscious astronauts-in-training), there’s something for every taste bud.
Tip: Reread slowly for better memory.
But wait, there’s more! The Deep Space Deli offers up sandwiches that would make a rocket scientist drool. And if you’re looking for a quick bite, the Market has a variety of grab-and-go options. We're talking salads, sandwiches, hot entrees, and snacks. It's like a mini-space station of deliciousness.
Tip: Read actively — ask yourself questions as you go.
Beyond the Food Lab: Terrific Terrestrials
While The Food Lab is a must-visit, don’t limit yourself. The surrounding area offers a plethora of dining options. Craving some down-home comfort food? There are plenty of BBQ joints nearby. Feeling adventurous? Dive into the world of Tex-Mex cuisine. And if you're a coffee lover, you're in luck. Houston has a thriving coffee scene.
Tip: Focus on one point at a time.

Eating Like an Astronaut: A Brief Guide
Okay, so you've fueled up for your visit to Space Center Houston. But what about when you’re actually in space? Well, let's just say it’s not exactly a gourmet experience. Astronauts eat dehydrated food that's rehydrated with water. It’s basically space ramen, but with way less flavor. So, enjoy your delicious earthly food while you can!
How to...
- How to avoid the lunch rush at The Food Lab? Arrive early or late. The peak lunch hours can get crowded.
- How to satisfy your sweet tooth? Check out the dessert options at The Food Lab or grab a frozen treat from one of the nearby shops.
- How to experience Houston's diverse food scene? Venture beyond Space Center Houston and explore different neighborhoods.
- How to pack a picnic? Opt for easy-to-eat items like sandwiches, salads, and fruit.
- How to impress your space-obsessed friend? Take them to The Food Lab and order the "Astronaut Burger." (Okay, we made that up, but it would be cool, right?)
