‼️‼️CAMERON COUNTY’S FIRST WINERY! 😍🍷🍇 Had the pleasure of visiting Bonita Flats Farm and Vineyard and tried their Immaculate Rosé—beautifully inspired by the Immaculate Conception Cathedral in Brownsville.

The story behind it is just as rich as the wine: it’s said that the first colonizers brought grapevines to the area, and this rosé is made from local vines believed to be descendants of those originals. A perfect sip of history and heritage.

We finally made the drive to Harlingen to try Pacific Island - Oriental Market and Filipino Cuisine after hearing so many good things and wow, it did not disappoint! 🇵🇭🔥

Everything we tried was absolutely delicious, but the ube steamed rice cakes were a solid 100/10! 🤯💜 We’re already planning our next visit.

The owners, a sweet Filipino couple, shared that they’ve been open for about 9 years. We wish them continued success and all the best! 🙏🏼😍
