Your A List: Best Ethnic Eatery (excluding …)

M5X00031_9.JPG
Now this is a novel A List category: Best Ethnic Eatery That’s not Chinese, Italian, Mexican, Thai or Vietnamese. The mere title says a lot.

The winner is Indian! And modern Indian at that. Clay Pit, nestled near the Capitol, served up 28 percent of the vote.

Fogo de Chao, the all-you-can-eat upscale Brazilian churrascaria across from the Austin Convention Center, came in second with 17 percent.

Aster’s Ethiopian and Buenos Aires nearly tied at just under 12 percent.

Sao Paulo’s landed nicely with 8 percent and Phoenicia sailed in with 7 percent.

Making 5 percent or less were Habana, Tino’s, Sarah’s Mediterranean Grill and El Greco.

Quite a global mix. Or at least a world away from when I arrived in 1984.
