Did you mean It's Italian Cucina on Lamar?

Overrated Austin restaurants?
I thought Loro was terrible. You pay the same price for brisket as you would at Franklin, but you receive about 2 oz of meat. The sous vide chicken was literally mushy. The Mexican style corn in a cup was delicious, but I think it was $7! Just fucking ridiculous pricing. Aviary is across the street and is a million times better.

Jalen Green looks legit

Bars
Tigress is my favorite cocktail bar in town. Great prices relative to Austin, and super nice employees and owner too. You can definitely strike up a friendly conversation there if that is your MO.

Seafood Market
There is a seafood purveyor at the Barton Creek Mall Farmer's Market on Saturdays that is top notch. Everything is super fresh and delicious.

What Podcasts Are You Listening to?
Gary Clark Jr. is on the latest WTF. Good stuff about growing up in Austin and hanging out with some local greats.

My all-time favorite Longhorn to watch. Him and PJ Tucker.

Texas recruiting notes 2019
Cool. I agree with you. I just wish you hadn't said that Brown was the first APB we've had in a long while when Ingram is on our roster now.

Ingram was better than Brown in High School at both running and receiving. I like Brown, but I think you and other are being dismissive of of Ingram.

He reminds me of the Oklahoma state qb, both the good and bad.

Warren looks fantastic, but he needs to learn to not leave his feet. He's going to get juked and pump-faked a lot in college if he doesn't.

Greek
I think you mean Arpeggio. Unfortunately, most of the good Mediterranean food is up north. Sarah's Mediterranean and Mediterranean Chef Cafe (makes Grandma's Hummus) are my favorites. Kebabalicious is also great for gyro/shwarma. Down south does have Jerusalem Pita (a food truck with the best baklava I've ever had) and Phoenicia Cafe though.

Fried Chicken
Gus' is the best I've had here. Definitely feel like we don't have very good fried chicken in Austin. The fact that Lucy's makes any money just blows my mind. It's not even mediocre, just plain bland.

Holy Roller: Meatloaf sandwich is phenomenal. El Primo: best torta I've had in town. Love their asada. Fricano's Deli: Paul's spicy reuben is fantastic. I also love to get the Ainsworth, it's always been good no matter what they choose.

Texas Basketball Recruiting Notes: Shaka Edition
Timme and Baker both look weak and terrible on defense. Hope they improve in college. Timme definitely looks more skilled offensively at this point, at least from that game's highlights.
