Tonight's your perfect chance to help out one of our own: local uninsured musician Chris Neale faces staggering medical bills after undergoing an emergency operation to remove a ten-pound tumor from his stomach back in October. To help offset some of this financial burden, friend of Austinist Marisa Wall has organized a stellar fundraiser taking place at Moxie and the Compound this evening, with support from a bevy of local businesses....

Brunch: the perfect weekend meal. You sleep in, roll out, and eat the best kinds of foods at a different and superior hour than the rest of the week. Anything that involves the illicit acts of consuming loads of carbohydrates and drinking firewater before noon while not at a sporting event has our votes. There are a number of places that one can find such a wondrous meal, ranging from holy-fuck-that's-expensive to the hey-sure-bring-your-dog. We've......

After reading an article in Good Magazine about a 250-pound guy who, worried about his cholesterol and blood pressure, decided to try out veganism for a month, we thought it was worth a shot as well. After consulting with our doctors ("Protein!"), we started our little experiment on August 1st. Now that the month is almost over, it's time to reflect on what Austin resources have helped make this a relatively easy venture.It should......

Austinist wondered, "What are the top spots these days to get your wine on?" Certainly one can order a lovely glass of wine most anywhere - but, for the distinguished Austin wino who wants to polish off a beautiful bottle or sample a creative wine flight in a sassy setting, we suggest the following: Vin Bistro Vin Bistro knows how to treat a guest. By far, this is the most excellent service we have enjoyed......

Local artist Stephen Reidmiller took his camera to The Drag to compile The Type Project. The letters and numbers above were made using light trails from The Villas on Guadalupe, Kerbey Lane, Toy Joy, Spider House and I Luv Video. We recommend it for your desktop background!......

We all know about the plethora of great happy hour appetizer values in Austin, but another great deal often goes overlooked. If you are one of the many Austinists with children, you can reap the rewards of free kids' dining at many area eateries. Unfortunately, Uchi and Driskill Grill don't seem to be on board, but then again, when are you taking your kids there? ...

Two years ago LB Deyo and Buzz Moran first gathered the faithful for a unique festival of intellect and revelry called The Dionysium. Tonight, we're all invited to celebrate that event, with "another scintillating monthly installment of cerebral stimulation, cultural enlightenment and ill-advised drunkenness." Here's the line-up for the June Dionysium: Owen Egerton of the Sinus Show will read his short story "Waffle," while someone else sits in the front row and makes jokes over......

Yet another trip to Taverna has us convinced that Robert Montez is a front-of-the-house genius. Chef Andrea Volpi treated us to a deliriously intoxicating risotto made from mushrooms sent to him by his mother, Giovanna, who lives in Milan. As in Milan, Italy, y'all. Seriously, we’re not worthy. Bust down the doors at Central Market and hoard as much double-sweet corn from Florida as you can. It’s so sweet, we wanted to tell you......

Attention, SXSWers: we'll cut through the fat — below the Expand-o-Tron lies a huge repository of restaurants that Austinist staffers love and endorse, all of which are near downtown. One of the greatest things about Austin is that you can find amazing food in any part of town. With that said, this list is not intended to be comprehensive. We limited the scope, geographically, from the river in the south, to about 38th St.......

Scoop Jackson was kind enough to point this out to us: for those of you residing in House District 48, today's your chance to vote for Todd Baxter's replacement in the Texas House. Baxter resigned last Fall, leaving his seat open to four contenders: Republican Ben Bentzin, Libertarian Ben Easton and Democrats Donna Howard and Kathy Rider. A run-off election will be held later if no one candidate receives a strong majority; the winner......

Last week, we posted a guide to help the poor, socially inept boys of Austin snag a hipster girl. This week, we've got some advice for the ladies. After the jump, we dissect the psyche of the four major types of male Austin hipster. The information is free, but we're not paying for the therapy sessions you're going to need after you date one of these guys.......

If you are like us, you want to barf up a few ginger bread pancakes the next time someone mentions Kerbey Lane. Magnolia, again! There must be more breakfast options than these. There is, lovelies, there is. Elsi's--now located at 6601 Burnet Road, next to the El Paso Import Co. (where we'll be buying all our furniture once we win the Texas Lotto). We know you love Mexican. Do you also love Mexican for......
