Austin, Texas

You know you’re hearing the liberal beat in the heart of a conservative state when you consider that this city’s rallying cry is “Keep Austin Weird.” Equal parts college campus, state capital, high-tech boom town, and possibly the live music center of the universe, Austin dishes up all manner of world cuisine. But face it: you’re in the middle of Texas. Eat the barbecue (with sauce on the side if you know what’s good for you) or revel in a regional food fusion that makes expats as nostalgic about Austin’s Tex-Mex as a certain Frenchman was about madeleines. Walk it off with a stroll over Congress Avenue Bridge, where the country’s largest bat colony takes flight at dusk—or up Sixth Street, where the club scene rocks the night.

Minestrone Soup I

Reviewed on Sep. 4, 2008 by CINDY18LOU
Delish. Changes: added bell peppers, zucchini, and a tablespoon of dried basil; I also simmered about a pound of frozen chicken tenders, used that broth plus some water, and shredded the chicken for the soup; crushed tomatoes instead of stewed, red kidney beans, not cannelini, baby spinach instead of cabbage, and I skipped the potatoes.

Cherry Crunch

Reviewed on Sep. 2, 2008 by PrincessBee
I liked the ease of prep for this dish. Everyone cleared the pan. You can't expect something to taste totally "home made" when the main component comes out of a can (pie filling). I would like the crunch to have been a little better tho. Will make this if I'm ever in a complete dessert rush since I do have everything in the pantry.
