   EDITOR REVIEW:

NORTH AUSTIN.   Threadgill's is one of Austin's most famous restaurants for several reasons: the then-gas station was awarded the city's first post-Prohibition liquor license in the 1930s, and Janis Joplin got her start singing here in the 1960s. Threadgill's still features live music along with tasty homestyle food. Meatloaf, garlic cheese grits, and Creole cabbage win raves, but chicken-fried steak seals Threadgill's reputation as a downhome favorite. Locals swear by the daily blue-plate specials, too – and seconds are free!

There's no poultry like the chicken-fried at this favorite! (from Southern Living)
