"There are very few places in Central Austin that have less of a “Downtown” feel than Olamaie, a fancy, upscale Southern restaurant set in a picturesque old house, complete with creaky floorboards and a breezy back porch that’s probably been home to a rocking chair or two. Despite how it feels, it’s just a short walk from the Capitol in a pretty quiet neighborhood. Order their world-class biscuits and the daily punch, blackened dayboat fish, and one of the single best pork chops you’ll find in the city." - nicolai mccrary
