Fat Sal’s Grand Opening Set for December 6th
Just spoke to Sal himself and Fat Sal’s grand opening has been set for Saturday, December 6th. Fat Sal’s, of course is the Austin extension (on Guadalupe up the driveway from the Thai Noodle House) of three popular LA sandwich joints begun by several former Jersey and NYC pals, one of whom happens to be […]
Sunday Brunch at Cedro
I was initially a bit skeptical about how a classic Italian restaurant would handle a mid-day Sunday brunch. That changed quickly after my first brunch at Cedro in Lakeline Mall (across from the Alamo Drafthouse). The Eggs Benedict were a study in flavor and texture. Very nice hollandaise, as well. The Breakfast Pizza was a […]

The Driskill was buzzing last Thursday night as the Wine & Food Foundation of Texas staged their 12th annual fundraiser Big Reds and Bubbles.

A particular favorite was from Angelo Sassetti Pertimali: a 2008 Brunello di Montalcino […]

The rest, […]
This Place in Buda???
If you have not yet done so, next time you’re in Buda, head to 214 Main St. and check out Nonna Gina’s Pizza and Pasta. Chef Reno and his crew have really stepped up here. The food is quite good. Start with the Friendship Bread, a flat-bread pie made to be dipped in olive oil, […]
Dining Out with Rob Balon adds laV to the Top 20
While I’m positive the outstanding laV on East 7th would have made it to our Top 20 anyway, the unfortunate closing of Paggi House created an opening and laV was the perfect choice. This is a très elegant French restaurant with a 7,000 bottle wine list, world class sommelier, and a staff and ownership totally […]
