Alan takes his first blog

My coworkers and friends have told me that as much time as I spend talking about food, restaurants and coffee, I should start a blog. So here goes.

While I normally prefer the local coffee shop, today I went to Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf. They are celebrating their first year anniversary in Austin by offering $1 frozen drinks. I had the Original Mocha. It was incredible. I have not had the regular coffee but will have to give it a try.

For dinner tonight we ventured to The Daily Grill. I had the fish and chips. I have been looking for a good fish and chips in Austin and until today have not been too excited about what I have found. Tonight, the fish and chips were very good. The fish was fresh, crispy and hot. The fries were thin cut and crispy. They served it with the traditional malt vinegar. I have to say the price is high but they do serve a lot of food. It was worth the price to me.

My daughter had the kids chicken tenders and fries. I tasted it and it was very good. I always taste the her chicken tenders and this was one of the best. While mine was on the pricey side, her meal was a bargain. $5.95 for 6 tenders and a plate of great fries.

Doing my part to Keep Austin Weird,

Alan
