During Halloween weekend, we had some adventures.
Me, Jenny, Tammy, Brian, Richard, Susan, Peter, Michelle, Wilson P., Long, and Steven all went to:
Trudy’s
409 West 30th Street
Austin, TX
(512) 477-2935
www.trudys.com
We had to split up with seating so I sat with Peter, Susan, and Michelle.
It comes with free chips and two different salsa dips. We had already eaten halfway until I realized I had to take a picture. Whoops!
Us four ate at least four times this if not more. It was that good!
Beef Fajita Ala Mexicana [tender beef fajita meat marinated in a soy-ginger spice blend and sautéed with onions, cilantro, jalapenos, tomatoes and lime juice. Garnished with a small salad and sliced avocado. Served with Spanish rice, borracho beans and a choice of tortillas] | $12.50
I got a choice of corn tortillas. Omgosh … I about died. The meat was so juicy and succulent. I was very full. I wasn’t even halfway full. (Maybe it was the chips?) But I made sure to finish ALL the meat. Because it would be a waste if I didn’t.

After we ate, Wilson P., Michelle, Steven, and I were heading back to the apartment and stopped by
Amy’s Ice Creams
1012 West 6th Street
Austin, TX
(512) 480-0673

Irish Crème with a waffle cone and sprinkles | ~$5
I’ve never had ice cream with alcohol before so it was a good experience. I couldn’t taste the alcohol but Wilson P. and Michelle thinks it’s filled with it. Hmm …
This was what sparked my ice cream with sprinkles addiction with the last post I made. It was that good. Sadly Amy’s is the best ice cream place I’ve ever been.
if you go to trudy’s you’re supposed to order their migas!!! most amazing ones i’ve ever had in my life! their mexican martinis are also delish! especially with corzo.
my favvvvv from amy’s icecream is mexican vanilla+crushed graham crackers+fresh strawberries!
my friend ordered the migas! I wanted to but there’s so many good choices! haha next time I’ll try the mexican vanilla. 🙂
next time you go to austin, try torchy’s tacos, shrimp tacos from santa rita, brunch at moonshine cafe (around $20 but totally worth it! it is also andy roddick’s fav restaurant in austin), also this place that sells cones with stuff inside? on south congress. zomg those are all so goood!
oh z tejas is def my fav tex mex restaurant, their chile relleno is like orgasm in my mouth! and apparently there is one in SA?
omg the wine/pollo dish from serrano is also fabulous
I’ve had torchy’s!! Wrote a post about it too! hehe and had z’tejas at san an too … also a post. but yes I’ll try all those places if I ever get the chance!! 🙂
