Organic chicken. Free-range steak. Non-GMO tofu. At Honest Mary's, the owner only allows high-quality ingredients like these to enter his kitchen—as he calls them, "honest" ingredients. All of the food is free of antibiotics and hormones, devoid of refined sugar, and organic whenever possible. Much of it is also local, and the staff crafts everything from scratch on a daily basis. This is why Honest Mary's already has a loyal following, despite only opening at the end of last summer.

Come to Honest Mary's to build your own healthy bowl, starting with your chosen protein, like roasted chicken or line-caught ahi poke. Then select a base such as black rice or organic spinach and sides like Texas sweet potatoes and French green lentils. Next, load on the toppings, from local goat cheese to Asian slaw. As the final flourish, dress up your bowl with spicy peanut sauce or apple-cider vinaigrette.

If you're looking for an active way to do a date night or a different spot for happy hour, Topgolf might be the answer. It's basically like a sports bar/bowling alley/driving range, but with tons of unexpected frills. That's why your significant other will be impressed by your creativity when you plan a romantic night out here, and your crew of friends will thank you for the departure from your typical local haunts.

It works like this: come to Topgolf to reserve a driving bay for a certain period of time. Depending on how busy it is, you might be able to walk right up to your bay, or you may have to come back later. Either way, once you arrive at the bay, you'll see a climate-controlled space complete with a high-topped table, a lineup of golf clubs, and a screen that keeps score. Stretching out in front of you is a driving green speckled with targets of various sizes, all ringed with glowing lights in a color that correlates to their point value. Order beer, cocktails, and bar fare from your server and enjoy them as you compete for the most points at Topgolf.

Owners Rosie and Josh were willing to put in the hard work to make Sugarfina a success: they spent two years tasting candy from all over the world. This experience introduced them to a roster of unique sweets and transformed the pair into candy connoisseurs. And so, they were ready to open their own boutique candy shop for grown-ups, Sugarfina. This first shop eventually spawned others like Sugarfina Austin near you.

With Valentine's Day right around the corner, now is the perfect time to come and explore the sweet spread at Sugarfina Austin. Bring home a bag of non-alcoholic bourbon- or champagne-flavored gummy bears to show your significant other you care. Treat your sweetheart some peanut butter milkshake balls or s'mores bites. Create a "candy bento box" filled with that special someone's favorite confections. Or bring home some dark chocolate sea salt caramels, Give It A Shot tequila chocolate cordials, or Kona espresso beans coated with cocoa.
