Everybody is going to ask you if you went to this place to have BBQ. It's outside the city, but worth the trip.

Perla's is the same owners as Jeffreys and Josephine house, but it's in the only other neighborhood in Austin you really need to see. Get a drink at the San Jose Hotel afterwards. Great spot.

Live Music

One of the oldest and most authentic Austin spots. Live music every night. Doesn't matter who is playing. Great vibe.

Rent a boat on Lake Austin from Keat ... He's amazing.

We take a group of 8 to wakesurf with Keat every Friday. It's a 7min uber from the house. Pricing is sub $200 per hour, I don't know exact details because we buy in bulk. It's absolutely beautiful, his boat is a 2019 and is also beautiful, he's a great driver and a ton of fun. Call him and told him Helen and Adam sent you - Keat 512 - 786 - 2548 PS - We'd recommend getting the Prime NY Strip and Ribeyes from Fresh Plus and grilling afterwards.

If you want to work out, go to Titan Evolution and tell Kevin we sent you

If you like crossfit-type workouts and want to get absolutely crushed (but not hurt - this is not competitive in any way), go see Kevin at Titan Evolution M-F at either 7am or 6pm, or Saturday at 9am. Tell him Helen and Adam sent you. He won't charge you. You will not regret it. 315 Pressler St, Austin, TX 78703 Across the railroad tracks, in the warehouse.
