"This is how this East 6th dive bar feels about SXSW: They play Apocalypse Now on repeat the entire time. They’ve seen the horrors, and they know not to get out of the boat. The Grackle has cheap drinks, one of Austin’s best whiskey selections, and a big covered patio out front—so it’s a good place to take a break from the SXSW frenzy. Just maybe tuck your badge in your shirt or something. " - raphael brion, nicolai mccrary

四姐 Special Noodle

Chinese restaurant · Austin

"四姐 Special Noodle is the newest addition to the group, with a unique cooking technique that has customers fascinated. In early 2022, the owner personally developed a special noodle dish that involves cooking the noodles and broth on high-temperature natural cobblestones in the pot. This causes the broth to immediately boil and creates a remarkable sight for customers to witness. The high-temperature cobblestones also ensure that the noodles and soup remain hot for a longer period of time, providing a more enjoyable dining experience."
