Hello! I’m Lisa, and I’m often mentioned as one of Lyssa’s “companions” when she blogs. I’m now getting my own voice! I started counting down the days to the Daily Juice Café opening last spring, after a Daily Juicer on a party boat told me about the plans for a full restaurant. Daily Juice smoothies…

Dai Due & Hotel Saint Cecilia
Dai Due is this Supper Club type deal that has this crazy cult following. Their Dinners book up way in advance, and it’s basically just two people cooking a dinner where you don’t necessarily know what you’re getting at a location you don’t necessarily know before you book. They range from $45 and up. The…
Sagra … do you have _____? Oh, you do?
This was me at Sagra for lunch today. There’s been some buzz around the place recently for its Recession lunches, a menu of Under-$10 specials, so I decided to check it out (with my dad–hey, why spend even $10 when you don’t have to?!). In a cute little house on the corner of 17th &…
When I have time, I will …
Well lovely readers, I am at a loss. There doesn’t seem to be much going on this week to report–other than those networking things tomorrow, that I said were happening last week, but really are this week (oops). This is really a great thing, if you think about it. Time to relax, watch TiVO, cook…
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…
Le Garage
La la la every girl in Austin gets so hyped over Le Garage, but the one time I went, I wasn’t overly impressed. It’s this weekend at Palmer and it’s what it sounds like–over 60 Austin boutiques set up booths garage-sale-style and offer their wares at 50% or more discounts. More details: Le Garage Saturday:…
Blondes v Brunettes tonight!
6-8pm tonight at The Ranch, open bar for players & coaches (& anyone who commits to raise $250 for the event) Aren’t you glad I’m not this excited about every happy hour?!
Thursday Scion House Party
Frankly, I’m confused about this Scion House Party thing. I know they’re supposed to be the pulse of the U.S. underground dance movement, but this House Party is at Beauty Bar … oh, you mean House like the music? Gah, I’m such a music dummy. Is anyone else going to see Sublime cover band Badfish…

Networking 101
The Young Execs of Austin and Austin Recruiters Network Party Meet, mingle and network at Malaia. Despite the fact that I railed on Malaia on twitter this weekend for having a GLASS second floor, it IS pretty cool, so long as you’re wearing pants. Anyway, this party will have lots of meetin’-and-greetin’ and less dancing, so…
