  1. I'ma need to get down to Easy Tiger, too. I've heard the best things! I love these posts as it helps a girl way out in the sticks find the best spots to hit when she gets that way. Thanks!

  2. Kebabalicious sounds really good. I'll have to try this place out when I'm in Austin. Another great post.

  3. Just went to Easy Tiger for lunch takeaway from the bakery - perhaps the best pain au chocolat in the city tied with Baguette et Chocolat's way out west Austin - just like in France. The ham/butter is the real day - I almost cried to eat a real jambon-beurre sandwich. Only thing they did slightly different was no cornichon pickles and extra ham. They always skimp on ham in France so that was an Americanization I am in favor of.

    We need to Easy Tiger together - Greg is dying to try out the beer list. I am in love.

  4. Dana -- call me! Let's go!

    FYI, Dana & her family lived in Paris for what, almost 2 years, so she knows her food!
