Little Ola's Biscuits

The Pivot: How 13 Restaurants Reinvented Themselves In 2020

"Austin “Austinites have long been familiar with Olamaie’s off-menu biscuits. One time I traded a friend three leftover biscuits for a really nice kayak paddle. So when Olamaie had to temporarily close their dining room, they pivoted to a biscuit-based takeout concept called Little Ola’s. And these are not just plain biscuits. Little Ola’s made a brand new menu of biscuit sandwiches, stuffed with things like country ham and cheese, or deep-fried chicken thighs. Now, my favorite element of the Olamaie experience - previously reserved for anniversaries, birthdays, and kayak paddle trades - can transform average weekends into great ones.” -Nicolai McCrary, Austin Staff Writer" - team infatuation
