Tasty treats

Lots of goodies at the Avenue B Grocery!

Fantastic sandwiches and a great selection of root beer!

The Avenue B Grocery has been operating since 1909. Ross Mason is the tenth owner. It's an Austin treasure and the sandwiches really are special. I love the Queen B with jalapenos. http://www.avenuebgrocery.com/

Art...and groceries

Our Great Streets program (which is really great sidewalks and pleases me enormously for the most part) has transformed East Third near the new Whitley Apartments. The tile thing is, apparently, art? In the background you see a new Royal Blue Grocery, the fourth one. There will also be a Royal Blue at the Skyhouse on Rainey Street soon.
