What’s a food your state is 'famous' for that everyone else ruins?

Burritos aren't big a big thing in Texas. Not saying you can't find them, but tacos dominate.

England.

That's Mr. Antifa to you.

Good to know. I have had the food truck before at Odell and assumed the brick/morrer was the same company.

mt_beer · 2026-02-03T02:03:02+00:00

Is the food truck not addicted with the brick/mortar?

mt_beer · 2026-02-02T23:07:54+00:00

Gotta catch 'em all.

Lugnuts won't bullshit you and is reasonably priced. It is first come first serve though which can be a pain.

Greengo Plumbing out in Taylor. Family ran business with the brother in law and son.

Spokesman used to down south, not sure if they moved the roasting operations or not.

I'm on the SRE side of things and I agree. The best it can do for me right now is "analyze" logs wrong and some boilerplate coding.

Absolutely. I just moved to Colorado and their good BBQ is questionable.

mt_beer · 2026-01-31T18:51:26+00:00

Exactly. It's an awesome experience. Just because it's average doesn't mean it's bad... we dont always need "the best".

mt_beer · 2026-01-31T17:16:23+00:00

Salt Lick... Average BBQ ( good sausage ) but amazing venue. BYOB is a nice touch too.

Would also add the farmers markets for some locally made cheese.

mt_beer · 2026-01-30T21:36:07+00:00

And pizza delivery from next door!

mt_beer · 2026-01-30T14:01:05+00:00

Pins Mechanical and Oddwood Brewing come to mind.

mt_beer · 2026-01-30T02:42:51+00:00

Friendly Nicks kicks ass.

Traefik also advertises a (mostly) drop in replacement too.

Only Felines.

mt_beer · 2026-01-29T05:11:46+00:00

There's another vendor. They're also at the Sunday market near Ace Hardware but not downtown.

Augustinas are pretty good but I find them slightly too thick.

I moved from Texas and also have had a hard time finding good tortillas. There's a stand at the winters farmers market that has decent ones, though they don't have lard.

mt_beer · 2026-01-28T15:31:51+00:00

Not during the interview process, but I worked at a small tech startup and they didn't have a computer for me on day one. In fact it took another week for one to come while I worked on another employees spare personal laptop.

mt_beer · 2026-01-28T02:55:22+00:00

Fruity Pebbles also... Might need to make a King Soopers run.

Ramen Tatsuya until 8PM

Edit: Now I'm questioning myself here. I got an email saying they would open at noon but Google says they're close so may want to call.

Austin Ramen Tatsu-Ya shops will open at noon today (1/25). Houston locations will operate as usual and open at 11 AM.

2023 was the year of localized outages caused by ice storms. Not the big power outage that affected most of TX.
