by Ryan Radoslovich on After spending 3 days in Austin I regretfully admit that I never made it down to Driftwood to the Salt Lick restaurant. My husband and I decided if we were going to try it, it was gonna have to be at the airport or bust. To our surprise, it delivered above & beyond our expectations of "airport food". My husband ordered the sausage and brisket combo with slaw and beans and I had the brisket sandwich with potato salad. I did have a taste of the sausage which was very mild, soft and tasty. The bbq brisket was so flavorful and tender and the sauce was nice and tangy. The bread has sesame seeds on it and was nice and soft; perfect for any bbq. The potato salad reminded me of a German potato salad as it had a vinaigrette dressing as opposed to a mayo one which I thought was genius. My only disappointment was that they were out of the orange longhorn t-shirts that I wanted to buy before I left Austin. Luckily, I found that I could just buy them from the website. I will proudly sport my Salt Lick t-shirt anytime, anywhere now!
by Iain B. on We hit Spice Market for the first time this week. It was Restaurant Week, but we opted for the regular menu as my wife had already tried some of the dishes offered for the set menu. Instead of bread they serve poppadoms. * TIP * Instead of the spicy tomato chutney that accompanies them normally, ask for a side of the cilantro yogurt that comes with the samosas We both started off with the samosas. They were okay, kind of greasy and something about the ground meat inside just made them really average. We didn't much care of the Miso soup either. It came with a huge clump of dill on top, and it's flavour was over-powering. It smelled like a bonfire to me! For our man dishes we had the green vegetable curry and the pork vindaloo. I'm not a big green curry fan (I prefer panang/red curry base) and so I didn't really like that dish. But, the pork vindaloo I had was excellent. Nice, big chunks of pork and a really really spicy curry base. If you've ever been to England you'll know that a vindaloo is our hottest curry, so this was good. My only complaint was that it too came with a huge bushel of herbs on top and it just took away from the overall fragrance of the dish. I think the food is flavourful enough that it doesn't need big pile of weeds and overly-pungent herbs on top. Overall, if your looking for good indian food, I think there are better places in town. The atmosphere is good and the service is top-notch.
by Ambrose Thrams on While it's sad to say goodbye to the old charm of Bruno's, the new school Bruno's is really not bad. This loungey spot has a warm, welcoming vibe with lots of space to sit and chat with friends. The music was fun for dancing as the night went on although there was no real dancefloor downstairs, but we avoided the upstairs due to the odd decor (2 stripper poles with a Pussycat neon sign? What the?). My neat whiskeys always came as doubles, our large party had the server running to and from the bar, and she always returned with a smile. I didn't eat, but they offer standard American fare (served until 1am). Interesting mix of people, too. In this case it's best to not compare to the old incarnation of Bruno's and just enjoy.
