Where To Eat When You’re Sick Of Tiny Plates - Austin - The Infatuation
"Ask anyone where they take visiting parents, or anyone who wants to enjoy local, seasonal dishes at prices that feel like they haven’t been raised since the local mini-chain’s inception almost 15 years ago, and Jack Allen’s Kitchen is usually one of the first answers. This is Texas-inspired food served at portion sizes that follow a few key tenets of Southern hospitality—especially generosity. Much like at the State Fair Of Texas, if you can think of it, you can probably get it fried here. That means chicken-fried strip steaks, pork chops, chicken breasts, and even beef ribs on occasion. And if you’d rather not take a few years off your lifespan, there’s a pretty big menu of non-fried foods, including healthy-ish salads and a really solid burger." - nicolai mccrary
