Pro tip: Pair it with a Maracuya Mule – a potent ginger, passionfruit, and LALO tequila cocktail.

FOOD ACCESS RESOURCES FROM SFC We have to admit it’s getter better, but we’ve still got a ways to go in dealing with this pandemic. The Sustainable Food Center has put together a thorough compilation of food access resources for Central Texans, ranging from farmers’ markets to CSAs to delivery options and everything in between, so you can ensure that healthy food stays on your table. And if you’re able to contribute they’re accepting online donations, which support farmers and low-income families facing food insecurity. Get all the details on their website.

MASON’S FAMOUS LOBSTER ROLLS: OPENING DOWNTOWN Mind you, we’re mighty partial to Garbo’s lobster biz ’round these here parts, especially since they’ve got their long-anticipated brunch menu going … but if the Mason’s people are going to open their first Texas franchise in Downtown’s Second Street District, well, reckon we’ll at least give the newcomers a try, right? It is the neighborly thing to do, after all, and those giant seabugs don’t care who serves up their succulent meat all fresh and tasty on a good soft roll …

THE MUSEUM OF ICE CREAM Oh! You’ll eat so much ice cream! You’ll learn so much about ice cream! You’ll Instagram your favorite phone into cute little pieces! Oh! We told you about this back in July, so you could snag some tickets early, and here it is now. Note: The Austin version of this international phenomenon, located in the heart of The Domain, features 12 reimagined and never-before-seen installations dedicated to the celebration and experience of enjoying the cold and creamy confection that makes the whole world smile.

EBERLY’S CREME BRÛLÉE FOR GIRLS EMPOWERMENT NETWORK Eberly is honoring the nonprofit Girls Empowerment Network by donating $1 to the organization with every creme brûlée sold. This is a good thing from the get-go, we believe, and who doesn’t occasionally want a dessert like this? But, come to find out that pastry chef Sarah Seghi has created a Peach Leaf Creme Brûlée with Rum Soaked Pound Cake, Lemon Creme Fraiche, and Preserved Cherry Jam, and we’re considering buying maybe a dozen of them every single day. Note: We’re told that this Eberly/GEN partnership is ongoing, so we may be in trouble.

TIKI TATSU-YA: RESPLENDENT OPENING Long time coming, but now here at last and – believe it – even better than we may have hoped. The drinks, the food? Sure. Ooooh, that menu. We expect the best from whatever Tatsu Aikawa sets his attentions to, and that’s most likely what we’ll find here again and again and again. But, also – the venue itself? Like some immersive outcropping of a tiki-worshipping, 1950s-era exotic Islander dreamscape, as conjured by the wizards of Blue Genie and a whole phalanx of local imagineers? Suggestion: Escape the same old doldrums of mundanity and step into this better, more fantastic world when you want to get your drink and noms on.

Mon., Oct. 4,

Tiki Tatsu-Ya,
