Buster’s BBQ: Delicious Smoked BBQ in West Austin

July 31, 2013 12:55 pm

Craving barbecue near Lakeway, Texas? Try Buster’s BBQ. Here, the meats are smoked daily on a custom pit fired with pecan wood. This no frills BBQ joint offers individual platters, sandwiches, a few specialty dishes, and family sized combos. Customer favorites are the turkey and tender ribs. The sauce is a vinegary Kansas City style ‘cue, but if you’re looking for some Texas heat try the H bomb sandwich, a pork shoulder stuffed with garlic and jalapenos. Buster's offers over a dozen traditional sides, but the green beans and baked beans are recommended. If you’re feeding the family – large or small – they can accommodate large orders and offer several combos to feed anywhere between two and 18 people. Take it home and host a party at Sendera Barton Creek!

Fore: Trendy American Comfort Food in Austin

July 24, 2013 11:19 am

Fore in Lakeway offers modern American comfort food in a trendy yet casual ambiance. This new addition to the West Austin scene is only about two years old. The owners transformed a formerly smoky and dingy bar into a fresh and modern full service restaurant. The menu has a variety of small plates and appetizers perfect for sharing with a group of friends for a girls night out. The bacon wrapped jalapeno shrimp with an apricot glaze, Hawaiian inspired tuna poke nachos with Pacific fusion flavors, and crispy blue cheese fries are customer favorites. Salads and burgers are popular entrees, but the menu has plenty of substantial main dishes from pasta to steaks. Fore's bar and lounge is known as one of the top happy hour spots in the West Austin area with inventive cocktails and martinis like the cucumber basil martini. The decor is modern chic, but if you find the metal chairs a little uncomfortable just ask the host for a pillow.
