Just two weeks ago I was in Texas with the Foodspotting team tearing the meat off the bones on this plate and drowning them in barbecue sauce at the famous Salt Lick… Afterward, my coworker Chris and I hopped on a party bus outfitted with a karaoke machine, Christmas lights and feather boas back to Austin. Meanwhile, champion eater Kobayashi napped in the back of the bus on an elevated platform that looked like a canopy bed. It was one of the weirder experiences I’ve had in my life. Earlier this month, the Foodspotting team reunited in Austin, Texas for our third annual SXSW Street Food Fest which drew 5,000 attendees despite the rainy weather! Check out the recap and pics from our food truck extravaganza. Photo of meat platter from The Salt Lick BBQ by Chris Connolly. Follow him on Tumblr.

early morning in austin with chris connolly I spent a lot of time with my BFF and Foodspotting designer Chris Connolly at SXSW this last week, dragging him to places like the Whole Foods flagship and taking pictures in and around Austin. I took the top photo while waiting for our food at South Congress Cafe; he ordered migas and I got chipotle shrimp quesadilla and cheddar broccoli soup. We were sleepy from waking up at 7:30am (three hours after getting in after a late night) to drive to Hamilton Pool, 45 minutes outside Austin, hoping to photograph it during “golden hour” before daylight got too harsh and bright. Sadly, the pool was closed due to hazardous rain conditions, but he did get an awesome shot of me in the middle of the road. (And we returned the next day to find the pool open, where he took this photo.) Chris is a great designer, photographer and a good friend who I got to know while traveling together in Ireland last November. Don’t miss him on Instagram and follow him on Tumblr.
