Thrillist Austin

The Playbook
Good Morning Vietnam: Elizabeth Street Cafe
1501 S 1st St; South Austin; 512.291.2881
Chioco Design (Lavaca Teppan, Galaxy Cafe, Star Bar) have completely revamped the old Bouldin Creek Coffeehouse into a haute-cozy haven for chef-prepared Vietnamese cuisine and French pastries. The culinary reins are held by the Perla's/Lambert's team, with standouts like the House Specialty banh mi (chicken liver mousse, pork pate, roasted pork), remarkably luxe phos (fillers include braised McAllen short rib, Dungeness crab), and pidgins like crepes with pork, shrimp, bean sprouts, herbs, and nuoc cham ("Nuoc-nuoc" "Who's there?" "Um, I'm a fish sauce").
And they open at 7a for breakfast featuring bonbons, eclairs, and macarons. Gander at their menu right here.

Ditch the Wallet: Q Card Case
Taking their first bite into Apple after sinking teeth into Sony and Nintendo's handheld systems, CM4 is an Austin mobile-device-case manufacturer who's implemented a handy three-card pocket onto the back of a minimalist rubber unit, making your wallet as obsolete as the phone this thing protects will be in like three weeks.
That's right, you won't have to carry a wallet. Make it happen at CM4.com.

Carry All: Porter Bags
1400 S Congress Ave; South Austin; 512.447.7600
This master-crafted Japanese bag brand started in '62, but has just now made its way to TX, stocking Service's shelves with a durable nylon/cotton series unevenly dyed to create a denim-like impression, and called the "Smoky" line, as your sacked-up clothes will be singing "You've Really Got a Hold on Me".
Wallets, overnight bags, messengers, they've got it all. See more pics at the Service blog.

Get Crowned: Jester King Opens The Taps
Sat, Jan 7th at Jester King Brewery: 13005 Fitzhugh Rd; West Austin; 512.537.5100
After winning a court battle to reclaim the proper definitions of "ale" and "beer" from the TABC, JK is continuing their booze activism with a rally this weekend in support of a movement to allow breweries to sell suds on site. The party also marks the release of their Das Wunderkind! Sour Saison, a wild yeast ale that's oak-barrel-aged with souring bacteria (so apparently Method Man also studied bacteriology at Harvard?).
Unfortunately there won't be any Wu-Tang-endorsed candy, but they will be tapping four draughts and two special casks. See more deets at JesterKingBrewery.com.
