SXSW iPhone Apps

It’s only to be expected that SXSW has their own iPhone apps, afterall who can have an Interactive Conference with no app? I’m sure there are Blackberry or Android versions as well but as I’m only a seasoned iPhone owner I’m not quite familiar with those other app stores.

Well, today I decided to go to Tea & Sympathy which I had been craving for a few weeks now with my friend Kristy. It was her first time there, and I actually felt kind of bad because her food wasn’t heated up properly! But I think all in all she had a great...

Calexico Cart →

My Thoughts: So as a Mexican Food lover, former resident of San Diego, and (trying to be a) money saver, I must say, Calexico Cart is worth every cent. First off, I keep saying, “where is the good Mexican food in New York?” At this point, I’ve almost accepting there is no good Mexican food, or at least Cali-Mex. But, reading about Calexico Cart, I had to make the trip to go see...
