888

888 is one of my favorite places to eat at in Austin. It is located on 2400 E Oltorf, between Willow Creek and Pleasant Valley so it is not too far from campus and extremely close to Riverside. 888 has a huge variety of Asian dishes such as Lo Mein, Curry, Fried Rice, and the extremely popular Pho. Their menu is pretty huge so making a decision is kind of difficult. We had Fried Egg Rolls for an appetizer, which were great. I had the Thai Pineapple Fried Rice at the recommendation of the waiter. It was served in half a pineapple and was fantastic! My friend had the Sesame Chicken which was also very delicious. 888 even has some pretty weird desserts such as an Avocado Smoothie and a Durian (the really smelly fruit) Smoothie. So if you're feeling adventurous you should definitely give one a try. Overall 888 has a huge variety of very tasty choices and it is not too expensive, so this place is definitely worth checking out.
