Weird. I would have thought that vegetarian would rank top. My sister says there are MANY MANY MANY strict vegetarians in America. She also says there are alot of obese people in America. That sort of puzzles me.

Both ends of the spectrum. The US is becoming a country of extremes, with less and less middle ground.

Guero's has moved up to the top spot on my chart, mostly for ambiance, it's in the middle of the near to town South Congress scene. The most "Austiny" part of town.
