I am going to be in Austin the weekend of the 15th and was wondering what some good, nice (not formal but close) restaurants are. I know of Carmelo's and it's good food but I was wondering what some other options were.

Thanks!

Trudy's isnt super fancy but its cool as shit. Its a TexMex place with a really cool bar and its always packed because the food there is great.

Also there is a really neat Mexican restaraunt that moved into the Real World house. Everyone that goes there dresses nice (not suite and tie nice, but still dressed up) but the prices are really cheap.

Im trying to think of some upscale restaraunts that arent chain....

Is this for a date? There is this restaraunt that overlooks lake travis and has gorgeous views, but people kinda dress down for that and its outdoors which might not be a good idea for the winter.

There are a TON of really upscale restaraunts downtown. What type of food are you wanting and I'll pull up a list online and let you know what I have heard about a couple places.

Do they ignore parts of reality?

A psychotic world we live in. The madmen are in power. How long have we known this? Faced this? And--how many of us do know it? Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up. I suppose only a few are aware of all this. Isolated persons here and there. But the broad masses... what do they think? All these hundreds of thousands in this city, here. Do they imagine that they live in a sane world? Or do they guess, glimpse, the truth...?

Get a Mexican martini and prepare to be heavily intoxicated. The end.
