I posted in the '03 one. Pretty consistent with what I put here, except I put my Mom's biscuits instead of her rolls with the chicken fried steak dinner, and I added several other things. Nice to see heypartner posting in the '02 one. I remember the Alfred's Deli in the Village. Went many times, and it was my favorite in H-town. (I was lucky enough to have a garage apartment in the area for years... great location)
I don't think we ever ate at that one, was at the Stella Link one fairly often as a kid. Have you found any good deli in town? Have you tried Manny Hattan's? I was unimpressed when they opened, but maybe it's time to retry (esp. since Rob Balon mentioned 'the ultimate comfort food' http://www.diningoutwithrobbalon.com/review/manny/index.html )
Either going to Fadi's or the Cheesecake factory for their famous crispy chicken costelleta or the spicy cashew chicken dish...breakfast wise nothing beats a quick stop at Chik-fil-a for those chicken biscuits
I posted in one of those other threads, and all of those things are still my top comfort foods....but I've added one more dish to the top ranks: I really good bowl of Pho........with everything in it.
Oooh good point...I like vietnamese eggrolls (the ones you wrap in lettuce). Crave those ... anyone know of good Vietnamese in Austin?
