Eldorado owner Joel Fried brings dearly departed dishes from legendary (but defunct) Austin restaurants back to life.
It's Halloween/Día de los Muertos, which means it's time to reflect on loved ones who have passed on and honor them while the veil between the worlds of the living and the dead is at its thinnest.
Many of us, especially those of us who've lived in Austin long enough to see iconic restaurants fall to the vagaries of economic downturns, development , retirements, and financial failures well before the pandemic, mourn the dining rooms of Austin past. In fact, about six months ago, I received the following email:"I love Austin in all its forms, but sometimes when I miss old Austin I REALLY miss that Mexican chicken salad from Castle Hill/Corazon.
I let that email marinate in my inbox for a little while, then approached my friend Joel Fried, owner of Eldorado Cafe and seasoned veteran of Austin's restaurant scene. The ask was this: Would you be willing to help me research, unearth, and possibly redevelop some recipes from bygone Austin restaurants? Luckily for us, he enthusiastically agreed.
Alas, the trail ran cold and we are unable to share it with you today. I am sorry that we have no tiny blue corn empanadas to place on the altar this year, but maybe next time we'll have better luck. Because, unfortunately, the nature of the restaurant industry is such that we could run this feature every year in perpetuity, never running out of beloved, bygone dishes to share and revere. Such is the nature of love and grief: You can't have one without the other.
