I love food. If you have been following me for awhile then you know that. Combine my love of food and exploring where I live and BAM we got a post about great places to eat in Austin!
You can see my other Austin Eats posts here.
This week I am sharing two more great places we have tried!
AJS & I love some good BBQ. We also have a friend down here who pretty much tries a new BBQ place weekly. This time I tried a place with a friend who was visiting so neither of them have actually eaten at La Barbecue yet! Yay +1 for me!
La Barbecue

We went during a weekday so luckily there wasn’t a crazy line but we did still wait about a good 15 minutes. I judge a BBQ place by their potato salad, it’s my thing. I don’t know why other than I love it. The meat here was hot, delicious and tangy. I loved their potato salad! So far of the BBQ places I have tried in Austin this is my favorite. According to the owner who commented on my Instagram photo (OMG I know right?) it is because they use fresh dill and homemade pickles and it is an elevated recipe of their grandma’s! Yes, please and thank you!
Perla’s Austin

This is another place I tried with my friend when she visited. Part of our Happy Hour mission took us all over to find good deals, yummy drinks and food. Perla’s has $.50 off oysters during their happy hour and I’ll take any discount I can get because you guys know that Oysters be expensive. We choose three different kinds and proceeded to inhale them. The grilled octopus was fantastic and not pictured because I ate it too fast is the pozole I had!
So there you have two new Austin places to try!! If you are ever in the area feel free to reach out and I can give you some recommendations for places to visit and foods to eat!!
