Fashion Now at the Domain

Simon Fashion Now Presented by Caress Skin Wear Collection With Fashion Shows Friday night and throughout the day Saturday, Simon Fashion Now at the Domain is the closest we’ve got to the Fashion Weeks that have just finished hitting NYC, London, Paris, and Milan. The event at the Domain takes advantage of the Domain’s outdoor…

Restaurant Week

Restaurant Week=Trying new restaurants on the cheap! Sunday-Wed for two weekends in March, you can try some of Austin’s finest restaurants with prix-fixe menus … start making reservations now! There are links for ones that have online reservations, or call the others to make reservations stat–I’ve waited and been totally denied because many restaurants will…

More free cupcakes! UPDATE: not free

We know I’m not a huge Hey! Cupcake fan–not that I hate them, I just don’t think they’re the best–but we also know that I AM a huge FREE cupcake fan. So how could I let you miss out on the Hey! Cupcake North Grander Opening (since it’s been open for a bit now) party…

Hey! Cupcake 2nd Location on Burnet Rd.

While I don’t personally care for Hey! Cupcake’s cupcakes (I MUCH prefer Sugarmama’s), in the interest of keeping up with the cupcake trend I feel obliged to point this out. Hey, Cupcake! opened a second location on Saturday, and this location is in an actual store rather than a silver Airstream on South Congress. But…

Free Beer Fests Saturday + a workout

TONS of stuff going on this Saturday. So much that I can’t even remember what to blog about. Well, to be honest, there are the only a few things I might be doing anyway (and don’t be fooled, I won’t be doing ALL of these): Saturday morning: Try Crossfit Women’s Workout Crossfit is all the…

Tiff’s Treats North Opening

The north location of campus-fave Tiff’s Treats doesn’t officially open until Saturday (and on Saturday, a dozen cookies are just $2, with proceeds going to Make-A-Wish and random prizes dropped in cookie boxes, so every purchase is a chance to win!), but rsvp to events@cookiedelivery.com and you’re in to the preview, where you get free…

Tiff’s Treats to Open a North Location

Tiff’s Treats is a local legend among college students, famous for their deliveries of hot, fresh cookies. I had a friend whose date sent her a box a few hours before their date one time …. precious. Anyway, I’ve only had them once and thought they were good enough, but not just to-die-for like everyone…

Austin Wine Festival

I went to the inaugural Austin Wine Festival last year at Republic Square Park and it was incredibly well-run for being in its first year. This year, it moves to The Domain, which bums me out, because the downtown location was a neat touch. BUT being at The Domain affords them other opportunities, like setting…

Review: El Chile North (you know, the free ‘ritas)

I was thoroughly impressed by El Chile North–I haven’t been to the East Austin one, but the food was superb. They serve chips and salsa in little bowls, which one of my companions deemed “classier than a big one.” I thought it just looked like more work for our server, but whatever. The salsa is…
