Update – Various Topics #2

This will be a quick post to provide an update on various topics… I think I’ve tweeted about these topics, but this post will provide a little bit more detail and I’ll update earlier posts related to each topic…

A bartender told us about Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka, so we immediately bought a bottle or two or three of this delicious adult beverage.  We found it at Twin Liquors #9 on Burnet Rd, and I have also seen it at SPEC’s (along with other brands of sweet tea vodkas) … Firefly Sweet Tea Vodka is a tasty drink simply mixed with water, ice ,and a lemon or lime slice, but we also look forward to mixing it with many different beverages/flavors…

When the restaurant Mars closed on South Congress, we heard that a causal seafood restaurant would open in its place – we were very excited at the possibility… Perla’s Seafood and Oyster Bar has opened in the Mars space, and we finally went for brunch, and then last night for just oysters and cold beer… Bottom line – we love this place – My reason for saying we love this place this early in the post is because we have heard there have been mixed reviews and I didn’t want you to wonder what we thought… At brunch we had a dozen oysters, a fried soft shell crab BLT sandwich, and a shrimp po’boy – everything was very tasty… Last night we had one dozen of one type of oyster, and then a second dozen of another type of oyster – both were delicious and the beer was cold and tasty… Did I say we love this place…

A couple of Saturdays ago we finally went to the Screaming Goat Tacos y Cerveza for lunch… We like this place a lot… Very cool Austin vib… We had guac and chips and tacos stuff with different meats – everything was great… go to the link and checkout the menu – they also have burgers and other tasty treats… and daily cold beer specials too…

That’s it for now… as always comments are welcome… and enjoy Austin, TX…
