10 oz. NY strip, medium rare done to perfection. Yup, Texas knows steaks, so when in Austin seek out good steak houses. Our first night in Austin (Saturday), we ventured out for dinner at a Louis 106 or something like that. On 6th street of course. Pricey, but very good. After dinner we went out in search of some good live music. At first we went up the street in the wrong direction and so we were becoming quite disenchanted to see more and more office buildings and no bars. 311 was some kind of restaurant and not the blues bar we had visited some 10+ years ago. And with some freak cold front in town, it was not a good night to be walking about with a light jacket and wimpy shoes.
Lucky for us, 6th street is still 6th street, and once we got on the right side, we found what we were looking for. That evening 311 Club seemed rather empty but Nuno's had a good sounding blues band so we hung out there for a couple of hours. Very good band it turned out to be, made playing the music look really easy. I never did catch their name. Hopefully we'll get to go up and down 6th street again before we leave.
