1618 Asian Fusion

The 20 Best Brunch Spots In Austin - Austin - The Infatuation

"During the week, 1618 on East Riverside serves up excellent renditions of Vietnamese, Thai, Chinese, Singaporean, and Southeast Asian staples—it’s a restaurant that does a lot of things, and does them well. But once the weekend hits, it’s (almost) all about dim sum, with a small menu that focuses on the classics—like xiao long bao, har kaw, and sui mai—plus a few Vietnamese soups in case someone at your table needs a little hangover helper. There’s also a full bar where you can order plenty of cocktails, sake, and mimosas with about half a dozen varieties of juice." - nicolai mccrary, raphael brion, matthew jacobs
