"Set in a "seriously industrial" neighborhood in East Austin, this "hip" little bungalow serves an "all-out French" brasserie menu highlighting steak frites and duck confit."

"This Victorian brasserie could very well be a figment of the imagination. It's located in the furthest recesses of the eastside. Beyond bohemianism."

Make sure the soupe a l'oignon finds its way into your meal, because the broth's rich flavor is spiked with an uncharacteristic porto-sherry combination that leaves your spoon searching the bowl for one last drop.

"On a distinctly unromantic stretch of far East 5th Street, this intimate French brasserie is a romantic oasis, perfect for any first date or special occasion celebration."

"If, in your mind, Texas food = barbecue, the Salt Lick is the place for you."

It's BYOB, so make sure to bring a cooler of ice-cold Shiner Bocks (brewed in nearby Shiner, Texas).

"This smoky barbecue depot is about a 30-minute ride of town. On the way there you can admire classic Hill Country terrain."

Try to avoid overeating to save room for a hubcap-size portion of homemade peach cobbler.
