Dale Rice has had a passion for food since his mother let him stand on a kitchen chair to stir the cake batter and then lick the bowl at the tender age of 5. Restaurant critic and wine writer for the Austin American-Statesman, he has been writing about the local food scene for the last 12 years. He lives in South Austin with 1,500 cookbooks and a 100-year-old wagon wheel for a pot rack.

The Texas Department of Agriculture wants to sign up chefs and restaurant owners who buy local products and are willing to feature Texas items on their menus on Oct. 1. It’s part of the inaugural Go Texan Restaurant Round-Up and statewide dine-out day, sponsored by the state agency to highlight items grown or made in the Lone Star State. Launched earlier this year, the Go Texan restaurant program has enlisted more than 300 establishments, including the Perini Ranch Steakhouse in Buffalo Gap and the Driskill Grill in Austin.
