Greetings from South Austin! I've been doing my best to try to support South Austin restaurants, with a few exceptions. Here's a look at what I've been making and getting for take out in the past two months. Caution: may make you hungry! 😂
 |
Homemade: pasta in light cream sauce with asparagus, bacon, pine nuts and parm.
|
 |
Homemade: coconut cream tarte
|
 |
Bouldin Creek Cafe veggie burger
|
 |
| Homemade: chili (with beans!) and skillet cornbread |
 |
| Vespaio canneloni, arancini, beet salad. These were fabulous and I got about three meals out of this. |
 |
A dear friend sent me this Bokksu box of Japanese snacks! So much fun!
|
 |
Homemade: air fryer churros! Easy and yummy!
(Though not as good as the nearby Churro food trailer!) |
 |
| Habana pollo salteado, empanada, tres leches |
 |
| La Patisserie morning bun, croissant, almond macaroon |
 |
| La Patisserie chocolate hazelnut cake |
 |
| Homemade: pasta with corn pesto |
 |
| Bao'd Up BBQ chicken bao |
 |
Slab BBQ pork ribs
|
 |
| Tarka's lamb biryani and chicken korma. I can't not get the korma! |
 |
| Homemade: raw beet salad, with fennel, red onion and haloumi |
 |
| Beet issues 😀 |
 |
| Soup Peddler: grilled cheese + salad |
 |
| Sugar Mama's carrot cupcake and bourbon pecan bar |
 |
| El Dorado beef enchiladas with calabazas (squash). This was a fabulous evening, being socially distant with friends in north central Austin. Food and friends were excellent! |
 |
A friend and I both ordered carry out from Fat Dragon, coordinated our pick up times, and sat in the parking lot with our cars dovetailed together so we could eat and talk. Delicious lamb cilantro dumplings and below, dry fried green beans.
|
 |
| Artipasta: bolognese + lemon cream sauces for another evening of social distance with a friend. |
 |
| Thai Fresh pad thai, tom yum soup, veggies |
 |
| Elizabeth Street Cafe banh cuon and pesty cat. |
 |
| Oh my. This Queen Beak (fried chicken biscuit) from Bird Bird Biscuit is one of the finer things I have eaten lately! This is the naked version, as I got my chipotle aioli and hot honey on the side, and as I was eating (and photographing) this from my car, the pics with the sauces on them aren't super. This was messy. But worth every bite. |
 |
| Dolce Neve gelato |
 |
| Homemade: pao de queijo (Brazilian cheese balls) |
 |
| Loro: bavette, corn fritters, won ton chips + dips. The bavette is quite good, but somehow I can't get these lightly seasoned won ton chips with peanut sambal out of my mind. |
 |
| I've heard the buzz about La Tunita 512, and had to go check it out. The consume with birria is delicious! Should have gotten the torta special to dip in the consume -- next time! |
Hungry? Yeah, me too. Time for my next meal! And I should add (and had mentioned in my May post), I've been doing intermittent fasting, so eating all these lovelies, and I am down 20 pounds total!
What's on your menu?
