"The Zilker pan-Asian-ish Texas smokehouse restaurant in the South Lamar neighborhood is a good crowd-pleasing destination — after all, it’s led by Uchi’s Tyson Cole and Franklin Barbecue’s Aaron Franklin. There’s brisket served with a chile gastrique (that’s restaurant speak for a sweet-and-sour sauce), smoked turkey breast with yuzu chutney, and rice bowls alongside nice frozens. Takeout orders can be placed online; there are Uber Eats deliveries; and there are indoor and outdoor dine-in areas." - Nadia Chaudhury
