"A stall at the Understory food hall, the Filipino spot Flip ‘N Patties is the perfect spot for a pre-game power up. Cozy up to the counter at the colorful stall and bop along to some classic ‘90s hip-hop while you wait for your order. You can split the garlicky chicken pupu platter, tear into some seared pork belly bites, and if you’re feeling particularly famished, we recommend taking down a mammoth akaushi burger. Just make sure to do your jaw stretches, first. How to get there: Walk (16 minutes) or take a pedicab (seven minutes)" - chelsea thomas, gianni greene
"One of the stalls in the food hall Understory, Flip ‘N Patties specializes in Filipino-American street food. The brightly colored counter service spot typically blasts 90’s hip-hop, and there’ll usually be a few folks filling the high top chairs at the counter tearing into their lunch. There are a slew of options to choose from, like the chicken pupu platter, crispy pork belly bites, and seared spam served with a fried egg. But make sure to at least get one of their beefy akaushi burgers that can barely be contained in their pillowy buns. Sure, you might have to unhinge your jaw to get a bite, but that’s half of the fun. " - gianni greene, chelsea thomas

"Modeled after East Texas fish shacks, walking into the Flying Fish can be an undoubtedly fun sensory experience. The restaurant’s multicolored checkered floors, crocodile green and white-striped booths, chestnut-colored chairs, and wall decor spanning from framed bill bass to illuminated Shiner Beer signs illustrate its playful, relaxed environment. After taking in an oft-bustling atmosphere, a range of fried fish and seafood plates await. Their classic fried catfish and shrimp basket with fries are comprehensive and satisfying. Fish tacos, grilled rainbow trout, and a peppery red snapper Veracruz, known in-house as “El Tiburón,” (the shark) are favorites among regulars and visitors alike." - Kayla Stewart
