Sure, you could go to a Starbucks. But just up the hill from 6th Street, check out this hidden treasure inside one of the best venues for SXSW Music, St. David's Episcopal Church.
Austin is a city with a lot of opinions about its food scene, but the one almost unanimous opinion is that the best food trucks in town are the East Side King trucks owned by Chefs Paul Qui and Motoyasu "Moto" Utsunomiya.
After an amazing meal, Paul discussed his upcoming plans for not one, but two different brick and mortar restaurants in Austin as well as plans for his East Side King food trailers.
Whenever I brought up the staff meal, I found that chefs were very eager to talk about it, so I decided to make a short film series that explores the staff meals (often called Family Meal) at different restaurants around the country.
Whether you're a visitor, new Austinite or long-time resident, here are some things you shouldn't miss this summer if you want to keep cool, keep entertained and keep yourself happily fed and watered.
