The ATX Asian Food Fest 5/29/2022 held at VUKA was fabulous! There was a great turn out. Parking…read morewas a little challenging. You could find a wonderful selection of food & drinks vendors, like Moi Vietnamese grill. Mom & Pops popsicles. Connor's creamery. Garbo's. Ding tea. Citrus refreshments. Weh? Asian fusion. Shoyu Sugar is Hawaiian grill and a favorite amongst visitors. Boba bites and tea, had their very first event and are in the process of opening their shop soon. A business to be continued, as I love their teas! Dash realty was there too with a bean bag toss, giving out balloons and candy. Cutco with their knives. Ten thousand villages had some beautiful fair trade goodies. All vendors had quite a long line. Moi's customers faced a long time in the burning Sun, but Asians love food! Weh? Sold out within 2 hours! The DJ's supplied great vibes inside the VUKA building, which is modern, spacious, air-conditioned, a great place for events. It hosted the space for a Limbo race, and crafting paper fans by 'open eyes beyond border' for the Lil' ones. The event would take place all day, and it is a hot day. A great event! The dragon dance was very much entertaining. People had their dollar bills ready! Oh, how we love to feed the dragon to get luck and prosperity! Yes, yes, Chinese dragons are believed to have control over water, rain, hurricanes and floods. They also represent power, strength and good luck. The Chinese believe that performing the dragon dance during festivals and celebrations drives away evil spirits and ushers in good luck and blessings for the community.

I LOVED this place!! Biscuits and gravy is one of my all time favorite breakfast/brunch dishes when…read moreI'm feeling indulgent. I'm vegan, so I can basically never order it out anywhere. I was thrilled when I saw this menu offers vegan options for any item!! I got the Donna and made it vegan, and it was so good. I could tell it was made fresh. The portion was also massive. This could easily be shared between two people and be filling for both. Highly recommend this place any time you're nearby and wanting a delicious hearty meal!

I'm not really a biscuit and gravy person, but I thought these tasted so good. I was happily…read moremunching away sitting by myself on the picnic table with the fan blowing my hair into my mouth. I got the Biscuits + Groovy, which is their basic biscuit dish. It was delicious and left me feeling full for $11. I like how they can make everything vegan or vegetarian upon request. They have a sign that says no water cups, which made me sad even though I had brought my own water anyways. Charging $1.50 for bottled water that probably cost a few cents in bulk seems steep, but I guess food trucks aren't expected to provide free water, so I will let it slide.

I might be biased by saying this but Sonoran Hotdogs from Tucson, Arizona are the BEST!!! Wow I am…read moreso happy I saw someone post about this food truck on instagram because I was able to go eat a Sonoran hotdog on a hot fresh bun with all the fixings. You can also get a chilli upon request which I highly recommend. The owner is so friendly and talkative. He is definitely passionate about Sonoran hotdogs and being a small business owner. There is parking available and he has such a cute patio set up with Arizona memorabilia. He has fans running and the music playing. I can't wait to come back for another Sonoran hotdog! Yee haw!

It was my first time trying Sonoran hot dogs so it was a lot to take in with the different flavors in every bite. It's very much a loaded hot dog and has all the yummy ingredients you'd want with the birria soup on the side to dip. Very tasty, the bacon wrapped hot dog was really good on its own, but put together, you have yourself a savory flavor bomb in your mouth. Their fries are also something to rave about. The sauce has a nice garlic flavor with some heat kick to it. Their agua fresca was very refreshing, they change the flavor on a weekly basis. I would like to return to try their burritos and tacos. This is a food truck but there is a covered outdoor seating area with several tables and chairs nearby.

It took about 8 minutes to get the food and there's a good amount of seating. The tacos are a good size and they came with toppings like lettuce, onion, and tomato.

Waitress was super friendly and very helpful to my wife in picking some new out to eat, she didn't end up caring for sopa de papas but still she was super nice and gave great service. The music was super fun and I enjoyed the playlist they had going, made the experience more enjoyable. Normally they are like a five star with their tacos so maybe tonight was just an off night

According to a close friend, Safran Austin located on Far West Boulevard, is especially known for being the first in Austin to feature a dedicated Nepalese menu I was not very hungry so I ordered the Chicken 65 (spicy deep-fried chicken with tomatoes, curry leaves, and ginger) ...a South Indian specialty. The chicken nuggets were doused in a flavorful curry seasoned and they were super moist and fresh tasting. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming. My server, Dipka, was kind and helpful. She offered me water to go as it was pretty hot outside...nice touxh. There are a plethora of vegetarian, vegan, and halal offerings. Looking forward to returning and exploring more menu items...

Austin Restaurant Week takes place from August 28th through September 13th. First stop...Rollin Smoke BBQ, located in the Chalmers building, which filled with a crowd of people. I ordered a pull pork sandwich, mac-n-cheese and banana pudding. The pulled pork sandwich was huge, which I shared with the hubs. Quite honestly, I was full after eating 1/4 of the sandwich, which had cabbage, pickles and of course the pork (not the typical stringy pork but chunks of pork bursting with smokey flavor). The mac-n-cheese was substantial with cheese filled shell pasta with a hint of a smokey flavor. So yummy...Well, I might have eaten "all" the banana pudding. This was not your typical banana pudding (dense and flavorful). I certainly understand why they run out of this dessert. Service was superb! Great dining experience...

I order a very nice lite afternoon snack, 1/2 lb of Prime Pork Belly Burnt Ends, 1 Pork Sparerib, and a side of Boozy Brussels. The Prime Pork Belly Burnt Ends which are tossed in bourbon sauce and smoked again for a tender meat candy-like finish which was quite to the contrary, not overbearingly sweet, just a hint. The first time that I went to Rollin' Smoke, I wanted to order the Pork Spareribs but they weren't available so that's when I was introduced to the Pork Belly Burnt ends so today, I ordered just 1 Pork Sparerib today which was good but not great, sadly. I thoroughly enjoyed the Boozy Brussel Sprouts which were smoked and flashed fried, a balsamic glaze with whiskey soaked raisins and parmesan. I am definitely returning to check out the Half Chicken Plate with 2 small sides that I eyeballed.
