Featured Restaurant - "la V" in Austin, TX

I had a quick say in Austin, TX recently and figured I would share some of the highlights if you ever decided to take a trip there or if you are currently residing and want to check some other spots out. So one of the stand out restaurants was “la V”. It honestly reminded me of a few San Francisco restaurants that I frequent. First, I went during Sunday brunch. The food was great, but the service was wonderful. Seriously, I had the cutest waiter and most of the staff appeared to be very ice looking indeed. laV offers a rustic yet refined cuisine in a welcoming and beautiful setting. Dishes emphasize the ingredients of the season and are at once simple and soulful. The world class wine list provides a rich array of options to compliment the ever-changing menu.We ordered the following (which I would most definitely recommend):

 

Starter:

kouign-amann, apple thyme jam & cultured jam

cheese plate, seasonal selection with accoutrements

bibb salad, green goddess dressing, garden radishes, pickled spring onions

 

Main Entrees:

farm egg frittata, asparagus, melted leeks, ricotta, roasted mushrooms

buckwheat crepes, scrambled eggs, smoked trout, hollandaise

 

Drinks:

 

House-Made Bellini Prosecco, Fresh Peach Purée (perfect)

Breakfast Martini Vodka, Cointreau, Orange Marmalade (on the strong side for me)

 

 

 

They also had a wonderful Jazz Troupe that played a relaxing and familiar set. From what I understand, this may be on the pricier side for Austin, but well worth the experience.
