Austin, Texas
Hands down my favorite restaurant in Austin, Elizabeth Street Café is located in what was once an amazing but run down house served as Bouldin Creek Café. Bouldin has since moved to a shiny new location down the street and the building that once was is now a stunning Vietnamese Noodles & Banh Mi Restaurant. Order a Vietnamese Coffee and #49, you won't regret it.
Norwalk, Connecticut
Colony Grill, the bane of my diets existence and home of the hot oil pie. Evolving from what was once an actual Irish grill in Stamford, CT, Colony managed to reduce their menu to one single item, Pizza. You have the option to add any of their twelve toppings or you can go fancy like myself and make it a salad pie. Everything about this establishment will draw you in, from the over the top friendly staff, to the walls covered in memorabilia to commemorate those who have served in uniform. This crispy, paper thin pizza is available in four locations through out Connecticut: Stamford, Fairfield, Milford and Norwalk. If that won't suffice, you can now hire their pizza truck to come to you.
