Trumpeted for live music, Hippie Hollow, and a laissez-fare state of mind, Austin may be the black (or rather \u201cblue\u201d) sheep of the Lone Star State, but with a truly independent spirit it\u2019s also, unquestionably, got soul. The city\u2019s growing foodist culture follows suit with a neighborly vibe and dedication to sustainability and fresh-from-the-farm foods. Cheesemongers with a taste for pungent goat\u2019s milk cheeses can rejoice: Texas is the nation\u2019s largest producer of sheep and goat products thanks to the rocky Hill Country terrain. While you will, of course, find international cheese flavors throughout the Austin dining scene, local restaurateurs look out for their own, often dishing such area favorites as Pure Luck<\/a>, Veldhuizen<\/a>, and CKC Farms. Austin may not yet register on the map of foodie capitals, but this cool, central Texas oasis boasts something that the New Yorks of the world do not\u2014that much-touted, smooth-like-honey, Southern hospitality.<\/p>\n

Markets<\/h2>\n

Central Market<\/h3>\n

This homegrown supermarket is hailed for its commitment to local, organic goods and a hefty offering of microbrew beers, wines, and artisan cheese. There are nearly 800 cheeses from which to choose\u2014including most of the American Cheese Society\u2019s 2008 award-winners\u2014and up to 4,000 varietals of wine, with a few bottles open to taste. The store also has one of the city\u2019s best bread bakeries; the caraway-crusted Black Russian Rye is a beauty.<\/p>\n

Farm to Market Grocery<\/h3>\n

Tucked behind one of those flat storefront facades ubiquitous to the sets of old-school Western flicks, Farm to Market Grocery is a quaint neighborhood stockpile of sustainable and health-conscious product catering to South Congress hipsters and tourists. True to its name, the market shelves such local goods as Wateroak Farm\u2019s whole goat-milk ricotta, Pure Luck organic ch\u00e8vre, and Real Ale Beers from the Texas Hill Country.<\/p>\n

Upper Crust Bakery<\/h3>\n

A family affair since 1991, the Upper Crust consistently wins local readers polls for the best European-style bakery in Bat City. Early birds can wake to a whiff of savory Brie en brioche, while lunch brings a classic offering of soups, salads, and sandwiches in a rustic setting. The wide array of cheese-friendly breads is most notable. Shop for ricotta herb loafs, challah, and French and Honfleur baguettes.<\/p>\n

Whole Foods Market<\/h3>\n

Everything\u2019s bigger in Texas: hair, trucks, and especially Whole Foods, whose 80,000-square-foot flagship is a foodie\u2019s Disneyland, with sundry in-store eateries ranging from a vegan bar to barbecue and a cheese department with around 700 international varieties. Second only to Central Market in terms of sheer size, Whole Foods scores points for its team of savvy cheesemongers. Picnickers will appreciate pre-prepared plates laden with two or three hearty wedges, a scoop of membrillo<\/em>, and a bamboo knife ($10). Nearly a hundred antipasti are also available to go.<\/p>\n

Cissi\u2019s Market, known since 2007 for such gourmet groceries as chocolate chipotle Fritos and jars of CKC Farm\u2019s seasoned feta, is raising a glass to its all-new, grown-up wine bar. Floor to ceiling windows cast a southern light on a wall of small-production wines that pair well with lunch and happy hour fare. Nibble on Fourme d\u2019Ambert, Baby Bell\u00e9toile, and the espresso-rubbed cheddar Barely Buzzed, all served with Marcona almonds, Castelvetrano olives, and figs. A sunny sidewalk table and hand-cut gaufrettes<\/em>\u2014crisp waffle chips sprinkled with shaved Gruy\u00e8re Surchoix\u2014make for an appetizing afternoon.<\/p>\n

Hotel Saint Cecilia<\/h3>\n

Named for the patron saint of music and poetry, Hotel Saint Cecilia also has a serious foodie soul. Translation: its in-room minibars are insane. Two gracious portions of artisan cheese hold court with supremely genteel company\u2014think caviar, duck rillettes, and grass-fed bison jerky. That\u2019s not to mention the other posh snacks including olives, croccantini<\/em>, and Perla dark chocolate that\u2019s divine with a spicy Rioja. In a last coat of polish, the bar is equipped with all the appropriate trappings, from a mini cheese board and planer to mother-of-pearl caviar spoons. Guests who can bear to leave their private crash pads\u2014all impossibly stylish with a hodgepodge of revamped antiques and iconic modern designs\u2014will find a sleek patent-leather sofa awaiting them in the urbane hotel lounge. The kitchen turns out such decadent charcuterie and cheese plates as a goaty trio from CKC Farms, served with ripe, local tomatoes. Of course, everything tastes better with a helping of classic rock by the pool.<\/p>\n

Taste Select Wines<\/h3>\n

Enomatic fountains at Taste Select Wines<\/p><\/div>\n

Opened in Spring 2008, Taste Select Wines is the only Austin bar and retailer to offer wine on \u201ctap\u201d via an Enomatic fountain that self-dispenses one-and-a-half ounce pours. There\u2019s also magic in the kitchen, where chef Bill McGrory, a veteran of Tom Colicchio\u2019s Craft, specializes in house-cured charcuterie. The meats, of course, pair beautifully with a plate of two or four cheeses ($8-$16), each with a unique accompaniment. Look for Roaring 40\u2019s Blue coupled with candied walnut butter or Seal Bay Triple Cream with black plum syrup.<\/p>\n

Vino Vino<\/h3>\n

In the crop of wine bar-slash-retail shops burgeoning about town, Vino Vino is a richer varietal, with a selection of mostly Old World wines that positively ooze charisma. While bottles are available to purchase on the run, chef Esteban Escobar\u2019s intriguing cheese plates tempt us to stay a while. Grab a seat at a long farm table beneath the lofty framework ceiling and note how a bright salad of local grapefruit, mint, and fennel coaxes the earthiness from a creamy Garrotxa ($6). Meanwhile, a slightly smoky Idiaz\u00e1bal is accented with black pepper, red grapes, and basil ($7).<\/p>\n

Home of the Chuy Gooey<\/p><\/div>\n

We\u2019d be hard-pressed to find a funkier Austin vibe than at Chuy\u2019s, where velvet Elvises and 1950s auto paraphernalia are as vibrant as the Tex-Mex cuisine. At happy hour, a festive crowd descends for margaritas and the fully loaded nacho bar. Other cheesy diet-busters include the rich Chuy Gooey, layered with queso, guacamole, refried beans, ground sirloin, sour cream, pico de gallo, and more. Plan for a post-queso siesta.<\/p>\n

Enoteca Vespaio<\/h3>\n

One of the restaurant industry\u2019s favorite neighborhood haunts, Enoteca is always a sure bet. Sister to Vespaio, the more formal decade-old ristorante<\/em> next door, Enoteca dishes authentic antipasti, wood-fired pizza, and panini in a laid-back, bar-style setting. The $12 formaggio<\/em> plate changes daily and features four to five cheeses reflecting a range of milks and texture. Accoutrements include seasonal fruit, candied walnuts, and clover honey.<\/p>\n

Kerbey Lane Caf\u00e9<\/h3>\n

Housed in a quaint cottage on a diminutive street of the same name, the original Kerbey Lane is a homespun landmark that draws local students for cheap, 24-7 comfort food and UT alums for piping-hot plates of house-baked nostalgia. Since opening in 1980, the diner has supposedly served enough of its signature pancakes to warm an 830-mile stretch between Austin and El Paso. But ask any local about the best dip in town and the dense Kerbey Queso, poured over a scoop of guacamole, always makes the list.<\/p>\n

The shaded outside of Paggi’s House<\/p><\/div>\n

Built in 1945, this red brick carriage house is enjoying its umpteenth incarnation. Lavish outdoor spaces, including a wraparound porch dotted with pillowy settees, are comfortable and casual. The interior, meanwhile, echoes of bygone Southern elegance at its finest. Tufted black-leather armchairs beneath a Murano glass chandelier make an ideal perch for savoring the restaurant\u2019s cultured delights, including a plate of five cheeses served with kumquats and micro greens ($18) and a pine nut\u2013crusted rack of lamb stacked atop fluffy Lone Star goat cheese mashers ($37).<\/p>\n

Inside the South Austin Trailer Park & Eatery, this four-wheeled taqueria has developed a gluttonous cult following, those hooked on blessedly fresh Tex-Mex made from mostly local ingredients\u2014think hormone-free chicken and eggs. Is the green chili queso\u2014a wicked slop of queso fresco, guacamole, cilantro, and fiery diablo sauce\u2014a miracle or a sin? It\u2019s best you find out for yourself.<\/p>\n
