91 Days To Go!

Things to Do

Where to eat

Sourduck Market

Longtime favorite for coffee, lunch, and dinner. Bam loves the Kouign-Amann. He'll want to hear about your order if you go, so please text him if you do. If they've fallen off, no need.

Nixta Taqueria

Michelin star tacos and tostadas attached to award-winning Mexican-American bakery Comadre Panadería. If you've never had Michelada, this is your moment. If you've already had a few, chill.

Flo's Wine Bar

The wine bar of your dreams. Sip your tried and true or taste something brand new. The wine selection is Bob Kur approved. Some of the best pizza, salad, and ice cream available on site.

Spread & Co

Cute neighborhood spot for coffee, brunch, or European lunch if you're feelin' it. Carla's favorite is the Cherrywood breakfast, the Mortadella sandwich, and the trinkets at check out.

Where to go

Barton Springs

Natural limestone-fed urban oasis. The most TX thing to do while you're here. A truly magical place to swim, take sun, and people watch. And somehow Bam still finds a way not to come.

South Congress

The stores you love, the stores you hate, and some local treasures for you to discover. La Brea, Melrose, SoHo, and Central Texas all in one. At the very least the air conditioning is good.

East 12th Street

This street has everything you could need for a 'lil morning or afternoon stroll if you're Carla. Casual restaurants, vintage shops, $70 candles, Franklin BBQ, and Birdie's. You know the vibes.

East Cesar Chavez

The soon-to-be renamed neighborhood has Dua Lipa's favorite brisket, La Barbecue, mat pilates, a ton of Waymo's, NYT darling Canje, and the wickedly talented De Nada Cantina.
