We can thank Barley Swine’s more casual sister restaurant for keeping Austin weird with a rotating cast of playful dishes like goat chili Frito pie and chicken-fried fish heads with burnt orange habanero hot sauce. However, veggies are equally important at this South Lamar favorite and they always star in a number of cocktails and dishes (like roasted beets, black bean mole, masa fried cheese curds, radish, and pepitas).
