Dinner: We got together with the Fearless Critic Austin editors, publishers, and panelists for a book release party, then headed over to have some food at East Side King in the back patio of The Liberty (1618 1/2 East 6th Street, Austin, TX‎ - (512) 600-4791‎). The food tonight was quite good - the pork buns were seared very well which made them much better than the last time we had them here. The Brussels Sprout salad was a bit off - the dressing was too mild and the sprouts were in between soft & tender and crunchy. The curry buns were a tad too greasy for my taste, but they had good texture and nice peanut and spicy flavor.
