Dining Guide
Launderette

Dining alfresco when the weather is nice is a must at this chic East Austin brasserie. We quickly decided on cocktails before opting for spicy pimento cheese with salty house-made potato chips and an order of pierogi, which arrived as little butternut squash–filled pillows of dough drizzled with an Aleppo chile oil and served with tangy sauerkraut. Tender spirals of cavatelli pasta bathed in a smoky tomato sauce was a treat, as were the black-garlic barbecue ribs with added heat from sweet chile vinegar. We couldn’t dare leave without a selection from the dessert menu and found reward with the contrasting flavors of the Hibiscus Poached Pears and savory aged tomme-style cheese from Meridian purveyor Revelation Cheese.
