They’ve been around for a while, and honestly, we’ve been off our game. Ha.
Calbi (Short rib) Tacos are awesome. ($2 Each)
We also recommend the Three Wise Fries. ($6)

Fun atmosphere. Filled with awesome people dancing and awesome music. We went on a Friday night, when a band called The Brew was playing. They were amazing. I wish I could salsa.
The wait is a little long if they’re crowded, but you get to sit at the bar, listen to good music, and dance. S’all good.
This place is a bit on the pricer end, so come prepared.
Oh, and it’s a cozy place. Good place to take the ladies, fellas.
Portabla
Delicious sandwiches and yummy flat bread pizzas all in a cute little cafe.

Sometimes the most surprisingly best meals are ones you get to adventure alone and fully emmerse yourself in the flavors and ambiance a venue offers. M Two is the newest rebirth of what was once Saba Blue Water Cafe on 4th st — and I’d highly recommend it to anyone who inquires; Just be prepared to pay for good eats and ambiance. Definitely a happy hour watering hole, but I can see them dimming the lights, throwing in some lounge music, and being able to get close with a missus on swank couches alit from umbrella lights.
The Seared Scallops were AMAZING, and the peruvian chile added just a flavor of spice without the burn.

Located in Houston on Bellaire just east of Beltway 8, Banana Leaf is one of the best Malay places I’ve been to eat in a long time! They boast a kitchen of ONLY malaysian chefs and all of their items made in house. Price wise, dishes are relatively around the $10 range, and I spent about $20 on myself (hey, I’m a fatty that’s happy. Lemme alone)
Enoteca Vespaio!
Located on 1610 S. Congress
Austin, TX 78704
(512) 441-7672
Craving some good Italian food? This place is located right next door to its sister Vespaio. We haven’t tried Vespaio, but we will soon. Enoteca is a less fancy, less expensive version. However, that being said, this place isn’t cheap. We spent $40 for two people.
Jo’s!
Jo’s is a fun quaint place to hang out and catch some pretty good food. There are two locations one in 2nd district and the other in SoCo district. The two Jo’s are very different in atmosphere but the food quality is the same. On a nice pretty day I love to sit outside and enjoy my food especially their homemade cheesecake.

24 Diner pt deux
So good, it deserves a 2ndary mention! (To read the 1st one, go here: http://gimmenomnom.com/2010/04/12/24-diner/)
New to the scene of late night druken eats comes 24 Diner! Located on the north west corner of lamar and 6th st in Austin, the diner is home to some of the tastiest treats I’ve had (alcohol induced or otherwise). Their meatloaf is better than my last meatloaf favorite (Hoover’s) and their chicken and waffles (though not brined like Luck Js) w chocolate syrup is definitely worth a try!
Taste North Austin at the Domain!
On May 16th, Jocelyn and I decided to randomly go to the Domain. Turns out, there was a huge taste testing of all the restaurants in the Domain. They sold 10 tickets for $20. What a deal! We went around to every booth and tried everything. We even saw cooking lessons and ate those free samples. Yummm.
$20 for 10 tickets. Worth itttttt
Here is what we had and if we liked it.
