"You knew this list wouldn’t be complete without a barbecue recommendation. In a city where getting BBQ often means long waits and/or hit-and-miss menus, Micklethwait strikes the right balance between quality and feasibility. The meats and seasonings lean classic, but the sides are where things get fun. Coleslaw gets an upgrade in the form of lemon poppy slaw, and the citrus beet salad tastes like something you’d find at a restaurant with real chairs and tablecloths. (This one is an East Side trailer with picnic tables.) Grab a couple pounds of brisket, a few slices of turkey, and Tex-Czech sausages, then load up on sides. You can enjoy your meal before your friends standing in the Franklin Barbecue line down the street have even made it to the front door. " - nicolai mccrary, matthew jacobs

四姐 Special Noodle

Chinese restaurant · Austin

"四姐 Special Noodle is the newest addition to the group, with a unique cooking technique that has customers fascinated. In early 2022, the owner personally developed a special noodle dish that involves cooking the noodles and broth on high-temperature natural cobblestones in the pot. This causes the broth to immediately boil and creates a remarkable sight for customers to witness. The high-temperature cobblestones also ensure that the noodles and soup remain hot for a longer period of time, providing a more enjoyable dining experience."
