Whip In is one of a kind: an astounding wine and beer headquarters with eclectic, healthy New Indian/South Asian food, served casually at the bar and in the music garden, where some of Austin’s most exciting new acts can be seen. The menu changes daily, but always includes samosas and curries made with locally grown ingredients. – Kate Thornberry
