This entry is part of a series, Austin Scene» When my wife and I moved back to the Republic after completing our “missionary work” (four years in purgatory proselytizing to the heathens in the wilderness of Michigan, up near Santa’s house somewhere), we lived for a short while way out northwest of the city.

I’ve had salsas of all kinds over the years, growing up in Texas. I always enjoy the roasted ones the best. Some people don’t try [...] Everybody’s having birthdays these days. It’s so fashionable that I hear some folks celebrate one every year! Imagine that. Matt’s Famous El Rancho just celebrated 56 years of serving great Mexican food here in Austin, for instance.
