Well I am home from SXSW and since I didn't have my laptop with me like the thousand people who brought their Macbook Pro's with them, I am catching up on my blogging now. In fact I wanted to play punch buggy iPhone and Macbook Pro with Jen, but she thought we would be dead in a pool of our own blood by the end of the conference if we had indeed done that. Even I felt like I had a become a corporate sheep jeez.
Anyway I thought I would start out with a full report on the food I experienced in Austin... so basically this is a pro-Biscuit, and Biscuit advocating blog, so if you have differing Biscuit views than myself, I think it is time for you to pull the parachute and jettison out of this blog entry. I must say that I just loved breakfast in Austin, it became a ritual, driving downtown with Josh and Jen and getting a hearty breakfast. I had some Migas, which is a combo of eggs, cheese, tortillas, beans, and assorted other splendid country goodness. I went to the promised land of tex-mex breakfast... and it was good. I also sampled a variety of pancakes, particularly enjoying cornmeal. Then of course there are biscuits. I believe I should start a chain in New York called Chicken Biscuit, where all foods are put into a biscuit sandwich, for thousands if not millions to enjoy. crab cake on a biscuit, hamburger on a biscuit, and of course chicken on a biscuit. Indeed a delight for us all to enjoy.
Dinner was a more hit or miss proposition. We had a good sampling on Friday, with Ruby's and Mangia's. Ruby's being a top notch bbq place with all the fixins you can ask for, and Mangia's being a kind of pizzeria Uno's type joint. On Saturday we insisted on going to spaghetti warehouse. I had abused baby cow or veal as they call it. It was alright, but I must say we only really went because the name just sounded so bizarre. It seemed as though we were shopping at Ikea for lasagna. Monday night we went to a tex-mex place called Oasis up in the hills. The view was quite splendid, but the food was rather average. All in all some good eats in Austin
