As is our habit, my wife and I were watching the Daily Show<\/a> last night. The guest was Sandra Bullock<\/a>. She was there to plug Miss Congeniality 2 (feh), but her conversation with Jon Stewart turned to Austin. They both gushed about our fair city and the topic turned to local eateries.<\/p>\n

Bullock plugged Salt Lick<\/a> which they both agreed was great. If you ask me, Cooper’s<\/a> is hands down the best BBQ around and well worth the extra half-hour drive.<\/p>\n

Stewart asked her about an old burger place that everyone recommends in town. She thought for a moment and suggested Sandy’s<\/a> which I thought was a cool plug, but probably not the one he was trying to remember. I’m guessing he was talking about Hut’s<\/a>, but then thought it could be Dirty’s<\/a>, Top Notch, or Hillbert’s. For burger joint atmosphere, I think any of those that I mentioned are worthy. However, I still think the Amarillo burger at Casino El Camino<\/a> is the best burger in town. Period.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
