Anyone who has time to blog about SXSW as it&#8217;s happening shouldn&#8217;t be credited as a reliable source. <\/p>\n<p>Here&#8217;s some of the Food Frakker experiences I had while bumming around downtown, trying to experience as much culture as Texas ever allows in one place at one time.<\/p>\n<p>My single most favorite music venue during SXSW was the St. David&#8217;s Episcopal Church. Why? Because they had a bunch of church volunteers, each wearing matching tie-dye T-shirts with the church&#8217;s logo, selling food and beer in the fellowship hall. I liked their home-style salsa and chips.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.revolutionsf.com\/bb\/weblogs\/upload\/5\/6640863474bb0f4dd1f483.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s not a conference unless you eat in a hotel sports bar. This is from the Marriott&#8217;s Champions restaurant, the single most ornate Frito pie I&#8217;ve ever eaten.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.revolutionsf.com\/bb\/weblogs\/upload\/5\/2522679454bb0f4e740b02.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nBut the chili had beans in it, which is pretty audaciously incorrect considering that it&#8217;s served by a supposedly Texas-sports themed bar.<\/p>\n<p>The Hilton bar had a delicious calamari bowl. The greasy, tender rings of squid flesh came with two dipping sauces.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.revolutionsf.com\/bb\/weblogs\/upload\/5\/10393134664bb0f4f50e360.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><\/p>\n<p>And from a Hotel hospitality lounge, one of the least ornate versions of Frito pie. Soggy and greasy Frito chips that you scooped out of a steam tray.<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.revolutionsf.com\/bb\/weblogs\/upload\/5\/3740325464bb0f50101728.jpg\" border=\"0\" \/><br \/>\nWhich, when you think about it, is pretty true to the spirit of Frito pie.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It looks like I might have to hold open the Fabulous Taco Quiz a while longer.
