 Open-air craft market |
Guadalupe Street at West 23rd Austin, TX 78705 United States +1 512 397 1468 http://www.austinartistsmarket... |
This Renaissance Market is one of the highlights of the area known as the Drag, located just across the street from the UT campus. It is open year-round and features the handiwork of some great local artisans. There is no set schedule for vendors as far as participation or time slots—a general rule of thumb is that weekends and around the holidays are the most bountiful. Street performers like mimes and jugglers are often around during these heavy traffic times and add to the lively atmosphere. Selections may include handmade jewelry, purses, tie-dyed T-shirts, paintings, prisms, toys, leather goods and more. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Out of the several locations in Austin, this Half Price Books is understandably the most artsy and intellectual, given its location just off The Drag and a stone's throw from the University of Texas. A bargain-hunter and book-lover's paradise, the store is arranged into sub-shops, each devoted to a category of books. This isn't the place to find the most up-to-the-minute best-seller or the latest entry in Oprah's Book Club, but it is the spot for an out-of-print, hardbound copy of "The Catcher in the Rye", at half off the cover price. CDs, cassettes and other forms of music, even a huge collection of LPs, can be found in another room. Sit on the floor with a book or search the racks of albums for the one that got warped in high school. Loitering is encouraged. The staff is uniformly well-read and helpful, and they will search the store computer for a specific title upon request. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Lammes Candies has a colorful history. Austin's oldest candy company, Lammes(with the 'lamb' logo, so that people pronounce the name right!) is known for its pecans, chewy caramel delights, Choc'Adillos and Kisses. Over five generations, Lammes Candies has been wagered, lost and won back and hit hard during World War-II. This forced the then ice cream store to diversify into candies, creating today's much sought after "Texas Chewie Pecan Praline." With a dedicated staff that doesn't mind bending over backwards to accommodate all your chocolate cravings, there's no other place one would rather go to get a daily fix of the love-chemical!

Cheap living |
603 Barton Springs Road Austin, TX 78704-1144 United States +1 512 478 6322 |
Sandy's is one of those all American cafes but this one has been around for nearly twenty years and its neon custard cone has been its trademark. So, if you want a bit of classic Americana, drive through and pick up a meal or sit at one of the picnic tables. The menu consists of mouthwatering junk food, such as Cheese burgers, which can be built on by asking for double meat, double cheese or double bun! Everything is affordable here, within a couple of bucks, the price you pay for greasy but enticing food! Review © 2007, Wcities |

>From a conservative three-button single-breasted wool to a contemporary four-button, double-breasted gabardine, this men's suit shop will give you the look you're aiming for—without the big prices. Nevertheless, although no suit is over $210, the line of labels read like a Milan phone book: Bendetti, Damiani, Salcone and Georgio Brutini.

Tex-Mex condiment specialty shop |
618 East Sixth St Austin, TX 78701 United States +1 512 499 0766 http://www.tearsofjoysauces.com |
This little shop in the heart of downtown Austin is an ideal place to find souvenirs of your Texas (culinary) adventure. Beware, however: the hot sauces and salsas you will find here are probably hotter than what you have found in restaurants. Among the hundreds of salsas, Firewater is the most popular and Dave's Insanity Special Reserve is the hottest. The spice rubs, barbecue sauces and marinades here are world-class, shipped to discerning palates around the country. Bottles (usually around 5 ounces) run from $1 to $20. Another specialty here are the chicken, veggie and black bean O'Shucks tamales ($6.25/dozen or $.75 each), which you can eat there, take-out or have shipped anywhere. Review © 2007, Wcities |

Men who dress to impress love this high-end clothing store, where you can find Canali slacks and Bruno Magli boots (as well as Hickey Freeman and Cole Haan).

 For kids of all ages |
2900 Guadalupe Austin, TX 78705 United States +1 512 320 0090 http://www.toyjoy.com/ |
A toy store open at midnight? This is not your typical predigested corporate toy outlet with Star Wars figures and Monopoly. Rather, Toy Joy is a wonderland for unconventional "children" of all ages. Though the inventory includes some popular kid's items like Beanie Babies and Pokemon collectibles, they specialize in the unusual. Similarly, most customers have long outgrown adolescence but not the trappings. This boutique of the bizarre is filled to capacity with selections like sumo wrestler alarm clocks, cube-shaped bubble wands, over sized lava lamps and creative sound makers. A great place to shop for a gift (for yourself?) or to pass an afternoon. Review © 2007, Wcities |
