Fat City is a concept from Austin, Texas’ beloved culinary classic, The Peached Tortilla, located at 6700 Burnet Rd. at the local favorite dog-friendly spot Yard Bar. Together, Fat City and Yard Bar are teaming up in the North Austin space to offer a nostalgic, fully outdoor, dog- and family-friendly neighborhood spot premiering in Summer 2021.
Fat City will feature a family-friendly menu of sliders, chicken tenders, crinkle fries and more, elevating nostalgic guilty pleasures to wholesome, scratch-made classics done right. The pop-up will occupy the kitchen behind Yard Bar. The straightforward, family-friendly menu features Fat Stacks – classic beef or fried chicken sliders available individually or in a Sack, which includes three sliders plus crinkle fries or tots. The menu also features hand-dipped chicken tenders brined overnight. For dessert, guests can enjoy soft serve available in both vanilla and chocolate as well as soft serve floats (the classic “Root Beer Float” and “Orange Dreamsicle”).
Silverstein’s team will also be renovating the Yard Bar patio area and refurbishing four of the original putt-putt holes on the property, to offer a space that is both family and dog-friendly. Yard Bar’s dog park and bar will remain open 12-10 p.m. daily. Park day passes and memberships are both available for visitors and can be purchased at the park or online at yardbar.com/play. Day passes are available for $9 per dog; monthly memberships start at $25 and annual memberships start at $249. Families, dogs and friends will be welcome!

New Orleans, LA - On October 22, 2024, I recently had an opportunity to attend the grand opening of Caesars New Orleans, marking the completion of a stunning $435 million transformation of the former Harrah’s New Orleans. It was an evening to remember, filled with excitement, luxury, and the vibrant spirit of New Orleans. The festivities began on Canal Street with an exhilarating ceremony led by Caesars Entertainment CEO Tom Reeg, President & COO Anthony Carano, and Caesars New Orleans General Manager Samir Mowad. The atmosphere was electric as they joined Caesar himself and an iconic New Orleans second-line band in a lively procession into the casino. It felt like the entire city had come out to celebrate, with Caesars New Orleans team members and Mayor LaToya Cantrell also joining the event to commemorate this historic occasion. Anthony Carano’s pride in introducing Caesars to New Orleans was palpable. “From local favorite Emeril Lagasse to our long-time partner, Chef Nobu, to the beautiful state-of-the-art Caesars Sportsbook, all-new rooms and gaming floor, and of course, our gorgeous new center bar, Octavia, Caesars New Orleans offers something for everyone. It’s a world-class resort in the heart of the Big Easy, and we can’t wait for our guests to experience it,” he said. The ceremony was a spectacle, kicking off with an iconic Mardi Gras float featuring Caesar and his court, and a dazzling firework show that lit up the New Orleans sky. The second-line band then led us revelers into the resort’s elegant center bar, Octavia, where we indulged in a “Taste of Caesars New Orleans.” Each bite from the six on-property restaurants was a delightful journey, capturing the essence of New Orleans’ rich culinary scene. Throughout the night, elemental entertainers, including the Saints Cheer Krewe, Mardi Gras Indians, Zulu Tramps, and showgirls, created an authentic and unforgettable Big Easy experience. Everywhere I turned, there was something new to marvel at, each performance more mesmerizing than the last. Samir Mowad, SVP and GM of Caesars New Orleans, highlighted the significance of the transformation, stating, “This year marks 25 years since we opened in New Orleans, and the completion of this project is the perfect way to usher in a new era with Caesars. Synonymous with the Caesars name, our new resort is pure elegance, and we’re excited to introduce a luxury brand like this to New Orleans. We are extremely grateful for the support of the community, our team members, and our guests as we come to the finish line of this tremendous transformation.” The hotel itself is impressive,…
