More Goodtaste This Weekend!
This weekend, we’re going to the heart of historic Hutto, Texas, to visit an adorable café that churns out over 30 kinds of pie. Then we head to Austin to pay a visit to a modern Thai restaurant, where you won’t want to skip the refreshing drinking vinegars or the sticky-sweet pork ribs with spicy red curry. Lastly, we visit a red sauce joint in Plano that has the cheesiest pizza and a Chicken Parmigiana that’s smothered in their famous marinara. You do not want to miss any of it!

Tanji’s Wine Finds: House Wine Rosé Bubbles
Effervescent and fruity House Wine Rosé Bubbles ($5 per can) has the power to cut through rich sauces while complementing lighter fare like salads and seafood, making this can a great choice for casual outdoor dining. Stoke your fire and dole out platefuls of Chunky Avocado Salad with Kimchi Vinaigrette—the dry acidity of this wine works especially well with the fatty, creamy avocado. Pick up a few cans now at your local
H-E-B!

Make This Now: Texan Cafe & Pie Shop’s Fried Green Tomatoes
Texan Cafe & Pie Shop specializes in pie, of course, but they also serve up delicious Southern fare so you can order yourself a full meal! If you’re averse to a little spice, skip the cayenne pepper used in the breading for these Fried Green Tomatoes or swap it for a milder spice blend, like herbs de Provence or even za’atar. Grab the recipe HERE.
