When CASA PLAYA’s Chef Sarah Thompson teamed up with RESTAURANT LE B’s Chef Angie Mar, it resulted in one of the most sensational meals I’ve enjoyed in recent memory.

Miss Behave’s MAVERICKS

My favorite places to stay, eat, shop, and watch a whole bunch of bats, in Downtown Austin’s Congress Avenue and Rainey Street Historic Districts. Giddy-up! 🤠
