Visiting Houston in a couple weeks, looking for some advice

Hey everyone,

I'm a displaced Torontonian (living in Seattle) that will be in town for the Jays' 3 game series in Houston from April 17-19, and I will be in town April 15-20, staying near Toyota Center. I have a bucket list to see the Jays play in every single MLB ballpark, and you guys are stop #4 – too bad I don't have a Springer jersey to wear.

What would you guys say are some musts to do as a first timer in Houston, in and around the city? Unfortunately, I will be without a car, but I'm willing to spring for the occasional Uber. Also, some advice on food would be great – I know TX has a pretty big TexMex and BBQ scene, but I also like pizza, Vietnamese, Mexican food. I love me some ridiculous cocktail, barcade, and divey-type bars as well.

Also, looking for some game day advice – what time to the doors at MMP open and what would you guys say are the big go-to spots when it comes to pre-gaming and grabbing pregame drinks? Not to mention good spots where I can grab some snacks or some to-go food and bring it into the park! Also, if you guys know where visiting teams tend to stay that'd be great. I got to meet a couple Blue Jays players when I was in Pittsburgh back last year outside the hotel.
