Discada is a Northern Mexican cooking style where a bunch of meats & veggies get cooked together on a giant metal plow disc over fire. Think cowboy-wok energy 🤠

It started as a backyard tradition: friends cooking together for family hangouts🔥

That same crew eventually turned the ritual into a tiny East Austin food truck 🚚 in 2018, keeping it simple and sacred 🙏

Fast-forward & now they’re posted up at Chalmers, still cooking the exact same way, just feeding way more people

And the flex? They only make one taco 🌮

That’s it. No menu panic. No fifteen proteins.

Just discada; a juicy, crispy, layered mix of beef, pork, bacon, sausage, chorizo, onions, peppers, and spices all cooked together on that giant disc until it’s stupid flavorful 😝

It comes chopped fine, stacked into a small tortilla, topped with onion, cilantro, and pineapple, and it hits every salty-savory-charred note at once 🌮🌮🌮

Order three, five, or eight and call it a night 🌙

Austin Food & Drink Class of 2025… wow, what a year. ⚡️

This was the year of forever waitlists, accidentally iconic brunches, & 1am Whataburger runs.

Red Ash had us refreshing Resy like it was Ticketmaster. Paperboy stayed living on our Instagram stories. Shangri-La kept hosting half the city without even trying. KG BBQ had people lining up.

Also… pour one out for the legends we lost. Asther’s, Jim Jim’s, Sunny’s, Koriente. Gone but forever in the group chat.

Swipe through the superlatives, relive the chaos, and tell me who deserved a trophy that didn’t get one.

Need a restaurant rec, date night plan, or where to take your visiting friend who “doesn’t like chains”? You know where to find me. 💋

Lil’ Easy starts with Stephen Shallcross — a Baton Rouge guy who brought his roots to Austin✨

📍He first opened Sawyer & Co 🥞, a diner nearby, back in 2014.

📍Then came De Nada in 2021, which turned into a full-on roaring success 🔥

📍Lil’ Easy is the next chapter. It lives inside an old Shell station 🚗 on East Cesar Chavez. The building feels scrappy in the best way. Real character. Real history.

The goal was simple. Make a place where frozen drinks just make sense🍹. Where you can tear into crawfish🦞. Crush grilled oysters🦪. Cheer for LSU or the Saints if that’s ur kind of thing 💜💛💜💛💜💛
