Ma po tofu
$, Chinese, Highland
"Damn—I don't want to give this one out. This place looks like a hole in the wall, just a shitty, rundown, American-style Chinese buffet joint. They have two menus: one for people that like sesame chicken (which I like, too), and then the regular Chinese menu. Make sure to ask for this one, because they've got some great stuff. I start with spicy beef tendon, then go for the eggplant with black bean sauce. Finally, I like to lick the plate off with ma po tofu and white rice, my go-to dish here."
The Noble Pig
$, Sandwiches, Deli / Bodega, Village At Anderson Mill
"I love The Noble Pig sandwich with spicy ham, pulled pork, provolone cheese, and bacon. Their slaw and daily soups are also a must!"
Sweet corn sorbet

"I love the textures in this sweet corn sorbet with polenta custard, caramel salt, and lemon. It's like crack!"

Ramen with chicken and seafood broth topped off with garlic shmaltz
$$, Japanese, Ramen, Noodles, Asian, North Austin Civic Association
"Ol' skool. Chicken broth takes 12 hours to make, low and slow. Chicken in flavor but It has seafood background notes. Topped off with garlic shmaltz. I always eat it with Yuzu bomb. Inspired by original ramen (shina soba) in such places like Yokohama and Hakodate(Hokkaido) @#ramentatsuya"
