Austin Chef's Table is a delightful treasure of a book. The author tells you about over 50 of the best restaurants in the city, and has fun commentary and pictures about them, as well as one or more recipes from each! Having lived in or near Austin for decades, I was surprised at how many places I really have to make a point of going to now. And I am delighted to find many of my old favorites as well. Austin is not just about BBQ and Tex-Mex. There are certainly more high end food trailers in Austin than probably anywhere. There are amazing Vietnamese and Korean restaurants, as well as dining that features local, sustainable produce, with an emphasis on health, such as the macrobiotic oasis of Casa de Luz.-Naomi Manggot
