is there a nanog austin eats page somewhere?  i lost my old link to some
wiki we used to use.

and, a completely unverified recco from an austin friend (who thinks
chicken fried steak is the meat nearest heaven).

I spoke to my colleague who has lived in Austin more recently than I
have.

He recommends North By Northwest highly, in the Arboretum area.

When I was a Texan in exile, I would always, on returning, worship at
the shrine of Chicken Fried Steak. Threadgill's is a timeless classic
that specializes in it. Ken Threadgill was an Austin legend, who gave
Janis Joplin one of her first paying gigs. Bonus: Manager Eddie Wilson
was the Ranch Boss at the Armadillo World Headquarters, and has a shrine
of posters and pictures from the font of Austin weirdness.

He also recommends Urbanspoon as an online info source.
