Question

Daniel Day-Louis-Dreyfus · Answer

Launderette: If my professor asked, I’d say “Austin” by Ellsworth Kelly at the Blanton Museum of Art. But my most fun, delicious and honest answer is the birthday cake ice cream sandwiches at Launderette. I drew and framed a picture of them for my kitchen. Launderette’s whole menu is good, but this dessert is why we go. The 🍪 outsides are raw dough (sans flour and eggs, I assume…though they’re so good I don’t care). An order gets you two tiny sandwiches — each is larger than a piece of sushi, smaller than a Klondike bar. You’ll want 10.

Odd Duck 🦆: A favorite dinner spot for anniversaries. Reservations recommended, but we’ve often been lucky enough to get walk up bar seats where you can watch all the culinary magic happen. Locally sourced, good food. Great for sharing. Always excellent.

Vic & Al’s 🐊: Favorite Happy Hour in Austin. Get the gumbo, red beans & rice, boudin balls, beignets, and a purple drink (gin + lemon + grape soda.)
