🍔 Two Valley restaurants just earned global recognition for world-class burgers.

Congratulations to Le Rêve in Brownsville and sstash in Mission for being recognized among the best burger destinations in the world by World’s 101 Best Burger Places.

For two RGV restaurants to make the list is a powerful reminder that this region has been building a food culture rooted in creativity – paradoxically also in tradition –, craft, discipline, and local pride.

The list goes far beyond naming a “good burger”; it looks at the full experience, from product quality and consistency to patty, bun, fries, service, cleanliness, atmosphere, hospitality, and the overall integrity of the concept.

Congratulations to both teams on this incredible achievement. The RGV is officially part of the global burger conversation. ¡Puro 956!

“I truly believe Brownsville has the talent, the stories, and the potential and sometimes people just need the right space to step into it.” —Mónica Rivers, CEO & Founder of Studio X - Video Production & Branding Agency

From podcast recordings like “Brownsville The Podcast” hosted by CEO & Founder Mónica Rivers and Alonzo De La Torre, PR & MCO for Studio X, to full video production, Studio X is where conversations are captured, stories are shared, and content is created with purpose. It’s a space designed not just for creating, but for showing up and being heard.

Before we close out our feature with Studio X, we asked MĂłnica what she loves about being located in Brownsville:

“This city gave me opportunities I never imagined, it gave me the space to build, to grow, and to become the entrepreneur and leader I am today. I’ve built my businesses here and I’ve raised my son here. And along the way, I’ve received support, trust, and a community that allowed me to keep evolving. That’s why Studio X means more to me than just a business. It’s my way of giving back of creating a space where others in this city can feel seen, supported, and empowered to share their voice and build something of their own.”

A space where creators can step in and bring their ideas to life 🎬 Welcome to Studio X - Video Production & Branding Agency 🎙️

From professional podcast setups to full-scale video production, Studio X is a place that has everything you need to start making content for your brand. To learn more about this Downtown Brownsville spot, we asked CEO & Founder MĂłnica Rivers about the inspiration behind Studio X:

Q: What inspired you to open Studio X?
A: After nearly three decades as an entrepreneur, I’ve experienced the highs, the setbacks, the pressure, and the constant need to evolve. And one thing became very clear to me over the years. A lot of people have something valuable to say.... but they struggle to express it in a way that truly connects. I’ve been there and I know what it feels like to build something meaningful and still feel unseen or unheard at times.
And through my work in leadership over the past 11 years, I’ve also learned that people don’t just need tools, they need guidance, clarity, and a space where they feel supported. I created Studio X from that place.

Q: What makes Studio X unique?
A: What makes Studio X unique is that we combine production, branding, and mentorship in one place. We don’t just focus on how things look, we focus on how people show up. Our clients are not treated like transactions. They’re part of a space where their ideas are taken seriously, where they’re guided, and where they’re challenged to communicate at a higher level. With my background as an entrepreneur and over a decade in leadership development, I bring an optional layer of coaching and perspective that normally studios don’t offer. That’s what allows us to go beyond content and help people build confidence, clarity, and real presence in their message.

Studio X is a full-scale video and podcast studio built for creators, entrepreneurs, and brands ready to bring their ideas to life. In addition to studio production, Studio X operates at the intersection of content and branding to help you shape, refine, and bring your ideas to life.

And at the helm of it all, meet CEO & Founder Mónica Rivers—the visionary behind the space and the driving force behind Studio X:

“I wanted to build more than a production studio agency. I wanted to build a space where people don’t just create content, but where they feel heard, understood, and confident in how they show up. Because every voice matters but knowing how to use it, and having the right environment to grow into it, makes all the difference.”
