  1. Supposedly the end result will be only one light between 183/360 (Capital of TX Hwy) and Bastrop after all the work is done. Only remaining light will be at Mopac/360. And sadly this is one of those projects that YGIFS would be able to post several paragraphs on.
  2. Is Herbert's still the place to go for Tex-Mex in San Marcos?
  3. if they're going to show the "Catch" they should show the onside kick recovery from the 72 playoffs
  4. Marble Falls DQ has steak fingers and tacos. Plus they made the national news with their sign about the eclipse. Also, the Bowie DQ has the best breakfast in Montague County.
  5. Anyone know what's up with the Deckhands in South Austin changing to Ocean Blue Oyster Bar? Menu looks almost identical to Deckhands still. Dan and Fran's breakup maybe?
  6. To this day I can't figure out how they managed to get a light there. It's an entrance into a gated subdivision (and therefore a private road). Someone had some $troke to get TxDOT approval for that.

    Mexican

    Not sure if this is the right place to put this, but went to Fonda tonight. We usually go there maybe once or twice a year. It's a freaking Austin treasure. My sister in law just moved back after living overseas for 12 years so it was a welcome back to Austin dinner. And it hit it out of the park. Wife and I are big mezcal fans and their choices are, well, so choice. And I can't go there without getting the mole, while wife and SIL got the ceviche and shrimp veracruzano. Parking sucks, and there's always a wait. But man that place is so good.
  8. Flights from Austin to Taos and Dallas to Taos starting back up this winter. https://www.kob.com/new-mexico/taos-airport-gets-8-2m-to-add-flights-to-texas-california/ Advanced Air will also be offering a few flights a week from Albuquerque to Angel Fire. https://advancedairlines.com/

    Burgers

    Another good option since you're in South Austin is Moreno BBQ. They have a couple of burgers on the menu in addition to BBQ, including a smash burger that is really good. Just noticed that they don't have beer/alcohol though.
  10. They moved last year to the new building constructed on the old Sullivan's lot.
  11. If you haven't been to the new location downtown, I highly recommend it. They did a great job with the build out and it's a fantastic setting. Ask for a table by the window if you make a reservation. And if you get there early enough, hit the bar for a drink or two before hand.
  12. Drowning (eating?) my sorrows after the game in Norman last night with a Storms' Special at the OG in Lampasas.
  13. In Norman for the Tennessee game. Little appetizer before kickoff. Best steak sandwich in the world.
  14. Been pouring on and off for the past 2 hours at Horseshoe Bay and more is coming. This water has to go somewhere.
  15. MLR Championship game on right now on Fox. New England v Seattle. Westlake's Ryan Reese is backup scrum half for Seattle.

    Dan's
  18. They're just following in the footsteps of 7-Eleven
  19. @BurntEyes where do you think they'll have the surf competition in '28? I'm not a surfer, but used to love watching Mavericks when it was still a thing.
  20. I champion it a lot, but honestly Billy's is your answer here. Billy's Philly is outstanding. Not sure about pitchers of beer, but they have a wide beer selection including lots of local options. Nevermind. Just saw you're in Houston and not Austin
  21. Jeffrey's and Barley Swine should be automatic. Even though Uchi is outstanding I have a hard time seeing a CenTex sushi oriented joint getting a start for the reasons outlined. and for fun they should give one to Billy's on Burnet since every redditor in Austin has just recently discovered it.

    Hard to find a great BLT in town, but Billy's BLT with. 512 IPA is pretty, pretty, pretty good.

    Well fuck. Missed that it was already addressed and can't edit or delete.

    Pizza

    That's the wrong Pinthouse Ygifs. Barshop Oles is redeveloping the Pinthouse Pizza at Brodie Oaks. Pinthouse Brewery is on Ben White down by the 35
