Austin Food Trailer Explosion

Can I get some sushi with my taco? Until a few years ago, Austin's culinary tradition seemed to be limited to breakfast tacos and BBQ. From these humble beginnings, however, has come an bizarre explosion of food trailers. From kebabs to banh mi, there's something for everyone in the Austin food trailer scene. Take a stroll around South Austin, and you'll find crispy chicken cones from one of Austin's finest restaurants next to shiny cupcake stands. Food writers from coast to coast are talking about the trend. Austin's best trailer purveyors have even battled Bobby Flay. On the weirder side, someone's discovered there's always money in the banana stand. Ane some like the food so much, they've made off with the entire trailer.

FXcuisine: spectacular recipes and memorable food experiences. This blog is a feast for the eyes. It has been linked before and mentioned recently, but deserves its own post. You can browse FXcuisine by tag or popularity. Don't miss the "next page" link at the bottom of posts. A couple of my favorites: Ramadan kebabs in Istanbul, fondue at a dungeon chalet.

Argentina On Two Steaks A Day

You will be tempted to just peck at it or even skip it altogether, rationalizing that you need to save yourself for the much larger steak later that night. But this is a false economy, like refusing to drink water in the early parts of a marathon.

Weird Food from Around the World

"Deep-fried chicken livers, crusty and delicious as any chicken liver ever, anywhere. Utterly wonderful, served with peppered cream gravy on the side."
Michael Stern - co-author (along with his wife) of numerous pop-culture classics - pontificates on the subtle joys of roadside diners, collaborative cuisine and comfort food. If all the talk of chicken-fried steak makes you want to hit the road, use his site to hunt down some choice noshing stops. Or just whip up some down-home grub yourself. Personally, I like a big ole pot of ravioli with a ketchup and butter sauce. Mmmm....
