Windsor Park & Mueller
Essentials
Texans love H-E-B with a cult-like following. Their fresh tortillas & Mexican pastries are to die for and I've found more varieties of salsa than I ever did in my hometown Kansas City. There's even a small beer & food hall in this Mueller H-E-B.

Specialty grocery store carrying H-E-B's gourmet brand. Fantastic bulk coffee & dry goods section, wine, beer & produce. I buy my coffee here (after sampling all the smells). You can catch live music on the patio almost daily during the summer, and enjoy beer/wine on-site.

Food scene
Opened by Arthur Franklin, the creator of Austin’s legendary Franklin’s BBQ, and Tyson Cole of sushi spot Uchi. Reasonably priced $10-20 plates, cheaper than their upscale namesakes. I always take departing friends/family on the way to the airport.

Open 24/7. I highly recommend customizing a taco with crispy duck & chorizo. Tyson's has a funky covered patio or take your creation to-go and watch one of Austin's beautiful sunsets on Mount Bonnell.

I’m a volunteer with Keep Austin Fed, a nonprofit of food rescue delivery drivers that gather surplus food from restaurants, grocery stores, etc and deliver it to area charities serving people in need. Upper Crust was our first regular donor.
They have great cinnamon rolls and have been a neighborhood favorite since 1984.
