Will Travel for Food

Introduction

As we've just seen in the Restaurant Poll, there's a seemingly endless number of new dining choices in the Austin area alone. You could go out someplace new every week this summer and still not sample them all. However, the chances are you'll spend some time on the road during the summer months. The Chronicle food staff (Rebecca Chastenet de Géry, Pableaux Johnson, Mick Vann, Rachel Feit, Barbara Chisholm, Wes Marshall, and myself) have some great new restaurant suggestions for you to incorporate into your vacation plans. Whether it's a weekend getaway to the Alamo City, a fishing excursion to Rockport down on the coast, or a peachy drive through the Hill Country, restaurant-wise, we've got you covered.
