All other forms of entertainment considered, going out to eat is the one ticket everybody buys, whether it's fast-food cheap seats, big-steak luxury boxes or the chicken-fried arena seating in-between. Let American-Statesman and austin360.com restaurant critic
Mike Sutter be your all-access guide to the Central Texas dining-out scene.
In more than two decades at the Statesman, Mike's been a copy editor, Sunday editor, Page 1 designer and, for the past 14 years, XL art director. But after more than 700 XL covers, nine XL Dining Guides, managing the hundreds of listings in our restaurant database and writing stories about doughnuts, Vietnam and the Incredible Hulk, he'll finally be able to put his nine years of fancy restaurant job experience (thank you, drive through) to good use. This means he can write about trailer tacos on South Lamar, $250 anniversary dinners at Hudson's, smoking a cigar with Michael Moriarty at Louie's 106, brewing his own Anderson's Coffee stout beer and freeloading at kids-eat-free nights all over town.

The Austin360 Dining Guide will hit the paper today (Nov. 6). Here’s a preview from the 25 Great Dishes section of the guide, gleaned from more than 175 places I’ve visited in my first year as the American-Statesman’s restaurant critic.
READ THE 4-STAR REVIEW OF THE CARILLON HERE.
There are almost too many players in this dish from Josh Watkins, chef of the Colosseum-sized University of Texas hotel restaurant: roasted parsnips, candied garlic, mesquite syrup made in-house, caramelized lemon and thick, perfectly mid-rare slices of steak with a subtle roasty bitterness from the coffee.
But instead of tearing the dish apart, that roster of superstar ingredients makes a solid team, with the gossamer garlic as a cheerleader.
