Austin Favorites

It's always overwhelming moving to (or visiting) a new place because I want to try every restaurant and bar as soon as I arrive. For me, of course, the design of the space has a huge influence on my opinion of it and when there's great food, it just makes it a million times better. There are several places in Austin that have a great vibe and feel, but there's one design firm in the area that seems to do a beautiful job, they have just the right combination of Austin personality and architectural detail, Michael Hsu Architects. Here are just a few...La Condesa, Icenhauers and Uchi.
