If you're a Dr Pepper fan, get to Texicalli. Danny Young makes regular pilgrimages to Dublin to get real Dr Pepper -- made the old way with Imperial pure cane sugar. Try the DP milk shake; it's greater than the sum of its parts. A balanced meal is important, so have that shake with an old-fashioned cheeseburger or chicken fried steak. On your next visit, try the waffle fries with queso or anything from the wide-ranging and imaginative menu -- it's all good. Going to Texicalli is not just a trip to Travis Heights -- it's a trip to Old South Austin.
Pros: Host with the most, Real Dr Pepper, Jukebox plays 45s
