Dishalicious > Eating Good
Here I present to you a smackdown of home delivery food services. Disclaimer: I have tried both Dishalicious and Eating Good only once each. Dishalicious is a division of Spoon & Co. Catering, and Eating Good is the home-run operation of Melissa Good (ha). Dishalicious Ordering: online. Super easy. Delivery: to my house, in a…
Hayashi … can you call something in Cedar Park a hotspot?
Plop this baby in the middle of 4th, 5th, or 6th and you’d have THE happening place in Austin (similar to upcoming LaCondesa/Malverde set?), but unfortunately, this Cedar Park strip-mall restaurant is in, well, Cedar Park. So the girls and I trekked up to Cedar Park for a Year of the Ox Chinese New Year…
The Perfect Four Seasons Brunch
After blogging about brunch at the Four Seasons in Houston, I had to make getting to ours in Austin a priority. So this Sunday, I brunched with a good friend at TRIO, the lakeside restaurant at the Four Seasons. It was a stunningly beautiful day, and we sat by a giant floor-to-ceiling window with a…
Snow Pea Bento Box
I had a lovely day in my Brykerwoods neighborhood! I woke up and took a nice little jaunt with the pup to the Starbucks inside the Randall’s, where I bought a Venti Soymilk Sugar Free Cinnamon Dolce Latte (yes, I’m a pain) to enjoy while I worked on some articles. A few hours later, I…
Four Seasons brunch
I went to brunch in Houston at Quattro, the Four Seasons’ restaurant. If the Austin Four Seasons brunch at Trio is anything like its sibling, I need to get there stat. I’ve heard it’s good, but seriously, if it’s this good, it’s high time we put it on the list of things to do. Quattro’s…
A Mama Fu’s Surprise
I have to preface talking about my experience at Mama Fu’s last night by letting you in on my bias: the other day, my parents and I drove by a Mama Fu’s and my parents started talking about how they had just gone last week and loved it. I looked at them puzzled and said,…
Cookie Lounge – Hello Candied Serrano Pepper
Candied serrano peppers. Sure, the dough is good, the customizing thing is good, the choices are good … yeah, Cookie Lounge is good. But the candied serrano peppers make the place great. They make your cookie fantastic. I had the gluten-free dough, which is made with amaranth–an ancient grain that’s so super good for you.…
Enoteca Vespaio
Crispy and doughy are generally opposites, but somehow the crust on my pizza at Enoteca Vespaio managed to be both, with a sprinkling of crunchy salt on top. It was amazing. In fact, the whole pizza was absurdly delicious, in a decadent, can’t-eat-it-every-day way. I mean, I could eat Mangia every day and die happy…
Review: Primizie
My dinner at Primizie was wonderful. I can’t give all the credit to the restaurant, however, because the company was fantastic–three women catching up, laughing and joking all night. So the company made everything a little better. That said, here’s a breakdown of the meal: extremely patient waiter. He must have come back four times…
