E2: Austin’s Best-Kept Secrets - 3 Hidden Gem Restaurants You Need to Try!

Welcome to this episode of our podcast, where we take you on a culinary adventure through Austin, Texas, and uncover three hidden gem restaurants that you won't want to miss.

Our first stop is Mediterranean Chef Cafe, located in the Brentwood neighborhood. This cozy spot is home to Grandma's Humus, which you can even find at your local HEB. Their menu features mouth-watering dishes like Tabuleh, Falafels, and my personal favorite, Nikki's Special, an open gyro over lettuce with lamb and beef. And don't forget to save room for the Baklava!

Next up, we're heading to Tommy Want Wingy, located at 121 Pickle Road. This spot is a favorite among locals and visitors alike, with tons of outdoor seating and a great location for kids. Their chicken lollipops are a must-try, with a special way of making the wings so every bite is full of meat. And if you're feeling adventurous, try the Holy Schnikes, but be warned, it's not for the faint of heart.

Last but not least, we're visiting T-Locs Sonoran Hot Dogs, located at 5000 Burnet Road. This spot is always bustling with a line of people eager to try their delicious Bacon-wrapped hot dog topped with pinto beans, sauteed onions, diced onions, diced tomatoes, and a variety of sauces. But the real star of the show is their Carne Asada burrito, which many locals claim is the best in Austin.

Whether you're in the mood for Mediterranean cuisine, mouth-watering wings, or a hearty burrito, these hidden gem restaurants have something for everyone. So be sure to share this episode with your friends and family and go out and try them for yourself!
