Have you ever had a "breakfast taco"? This delicacy is unique to Austin and you won't find a fresher breakfast taco than at Tortilleria Rio Grande #2. Stand in line (there's always a line) and watch how the staff prepare their homemade tortillas right in front of your eyes!

A trip to Texas isn't complete without a few Kolaches. What's a Kolache you might ask? It's like a croissant with a sausage in it. But sometimes they are sweet and have no sausage but they still call them Kolaches... It's complicated.
These are my favorite in Austin. Unassuming place but they are good.

South Congress draws plenty of foot traffic to its vibrant stretch of hip boutiques, trendy lodging options and Austin-original eateries. Live music shows abound, including nightly sets at the legendary Continental Club. There’s also a picture-postcard vista of the Texas State Capitol. Taking flight every summer evening from beneath the Congress Avenue Bridge is the world’s largest urban bat colony.
