1. Intero Restaurant
Holly
Because two spectacular concepts are packed into one former East Austin motorcycle shop. Chocolatier Krystal Craig sells her wares at a chocolate counter, which doubles as a host stand for her husband Ian Thurwachter’s modern Italian restaurant, Intero. In Austin’s crowded Italian restaurant scene, Intero is a stand-out that focuses on seasonal ingredients from Central Texas (the menu changes daily) and nose-to-tail cooking. Spring is the perfect time to try the house-made pasta and large-format family-style dishes.
