GO TEXAN Restaurant Round-Up
As if October wasn’t full enough of reasons to eat out–it’s Texas wine month, features two $35 Restaurant Weeks–the Texas Department of Agriculture is sponsoring a Go Texan Restaurant Round-Up tomorrow (Wednesday) to raise awareness of Texas foods while also donating proceeds to food banks across the state. Participating restaurants are offering Texas food and…
ACL … I can’t handle it
I just can’t handle ACL. I went all out last year–open to close, all three days, media tent, afterparties and aftershows–and I think I just burned myself right out. Instead, I will be walking myself to tailgating and the UT game. Trying to drive or cab anywhere south of Enfield this weekend is going to…
Starlite, Star Bright …
Mmmm, Starlite. A dear friend and I dined at the venerable 4th & Colorado spot, a place I’d been wanting to try since a coworker in the industry (yep, I was a bartender at one time) said it was one of his favorite places to eat–when he was in the mood to spend lots of…
I’m Off To Ecuador!
Tomorrow morning bright and early I’m headed to the airport to fly to Ecuador! I’m meeting my brother, who is already down there, for 8 days of adventures with volcanoes, hiking, and surfing. I can’t wait! Of course, I won’t be blogging because I have limited access to the internet. I’ve posted a few entries…

They expect every restaurant to be packed every night during ARW, so make some reservations stat! (Walk-ins are accepted, but reservations are strongly recommended) Austin Restaurant Week…
Huge Weekend
I’m exhausting just thinking about this weekend, and it hasn’t even started yet! Apparently Austin does Labor Day big. The highlight: Sunday night’s Nike Human Race. 6:30pm, a million people across the world will be running a 10K. In Austin, our course is a tough one–lots of hills–but pretty, through downtown, campus, the capitol area.…
Update to Restaurant Week
The other restaurant week, not the one that just ended. So confusing, I know, we had no restaurant week and now we have two?! For the “official” Austin Restaurant Week, over 50 restaurants will provide $25 and $35 three-course prix fixe menus to diners for eight nights. A list of participating restaurants will be released…
Restaurant Week = $25 three-course meals!
Restaurant week … all the other cities have them, and I earlier this year I wrote about rumors of an Austin Restaurant Week in October. Well, KGSR has apparently beaten Rare magazine to the punch, as the radio station that brings us free live music events Blues on the Green, Unplugged at the Grove, and…
Rumor Mill: Austin Restaurant Week
They do it in a bunch of other cities, and I think RARE magazine is endeavoring to bring it to Austin. It’s a week where tons of restaurants offer 3-course meals for only $25 or $35. It gives people the opportunity to try restaurants they wouldn’t normally try at affordable price points. Pretty exciting! The…
