A Texas Seafood Boil Restaurant With Lots of Crabs Is Opening in Austin

Texas-based seafood chain the Boiling Crab is opening a location in Austin this year. It’ll be found in the Linc at 6406 North I-35. There is no opening timeline yet, but its website notes that it’s “coming soon.”

At Boiling Crab, people are able to pick their choice(s) of seafood, such as Dungeness crab, blue crab, lobster, and clams; which are then steamed or boiled; and then they can add sauces and spice levels such as lemon-pepper. There are also fried seafood baskets such as catfish and oysters; chicken tenders; fries; chicken wings; gumbo; and much more. Diners are encouraged to wear a bib while they eat because of the mess. For drinks, there are sodas, teas, beers, margaritas, and micheladas,

This is the first Austin location of Boiling Crab, which was founded in 2004 by Sinh Nguyen and Dada Ngo in Seadrift, Texas.

Doughnut shop shutter?

Austin doughnut shop Lola’s Donuts seems to be closed now. Founder Olivia O’Neal (the also-founder and owner of Sugar Mama’s Bakeshop) had started the bakery in 2020, where she dished out brioche doughnuts, but it turns out she sold the business in the spring of 2022. Since then, the bakery seemed to have switched to wholesale and catering orders, but now it seems closed.

Food truck relocation

Austin food truck Jive Turkey moved from East Riverside into West Campus this month. It’s now found at sports bar Victory Lap at 504 West 24th Street as of February 11. University of Texas at Austin Longhorn player Deandre Moore and his mother, chef Taleea Moore opened the original truck in August 2023, serving turkey-based dishes like the burger, cornbread bowl, and deep-fried turkey tacos. Its hours will be from 4 p.m. to midnight Sunday through Wednesday and 2 p.m. to 2 a.m. Thursday through Saturday; it plans on opening earlier when there are morning sports games.

Tracking Austin food events

Mexican seafood restaurant Este’s sous chef Alejandra Kuri is taking over next-door spot Bar Toti for a Mexican Lebanese food pop-up. Items will include Arabic breads, grilled mushroom shish barak (dumplings), fish kibbeh atop tostadas, as well as cocktails and wines from bar manager Patrick Wasetis. It started on February 14 and runs through Sunday, February 18 at 2113 Manor Road in the evenings.

East Austin wine bar Lolo is celebrating its fourth anniversary with a week-long party. There will be dishes from Bad Larry Burger Club, Austin Oyster Co., and Nixta Taqueria individually each day from Thursday, February 15 through Sunday, February 18 at 1504 East Sixth Street.

Austin restaurant expands into Colorado

The Aspen location of Austin Thai restaurant Sway opened earlier this month. This is the first time it has expanded outside of Austin. It’s found at 308 East Hopkins Street, as of February 7.

All-time results of the Lone Star Showdown, the Texas-Texas A&M football rivalry

The Texas Longhorns and Texas A&M Aggies decided to bring things back in style.

With Texas joining the SEC in the 2024 season, that meant the Aggies and Longhorns would face off for the first time since 2011. After Texas A&M joined the SEC in 2012, the two schools did not continue their rivalry in nonconference play.

There doesn’t need to be anything extra on the line for this game to be of the utmost importance to both schools, but the renewal of the Lone Star Showdown is coming with some extra juice. With Georgia’s ticket to the 2024 SEC Championship game punched, the winner of the 2024 Lone Star Showdown will face Georgia in Atlanta for the conference title.

Ahead of the highly anticipated return of the Longhorns to Kyle Field to visit their hated rival, check out the all-time results of the Lone Star Showdown, dating all the way back to 1894.

Questions surround QB Quinn Ewers as Texas faces must-win game against A&M

Questions surround QB Quinn Ewers as Texas faces must-win game against A&M

AUSTIN, Texas (KTRK) — The Texas Longhorns clinched a 10-win season over the weekend, thanks to the win over Kentucky.

There’s a constant conversation about QB-1 and whether he has what it takes to lead the Longhorns to a National Championship.

The Houston Chronicle’s Kirk Bohls joined Eyewitness News to analyze Quinn Ewers’ performance under center and preview the Lonestar Showdown.

Bohls said despite an ankle injury Ewers received in the game against Kentucky, he expects Ewers will be healthy enough to start for the Longhorns against Texas A&M on Saturday.

Despite a shaky performance against Vanderbilt and the loss to Georgia, Bohls argued that Ewers doesn’t get the respect his talent deserves. He has led the Longhorns to back-to-back 10-win seasons and a playoff appearance last season. This season, he’s thrown for over 2,000 yards with 23 touchdowns and six interceptions. Bohls said he’s among the top five quarterbacks the Longhorns have had.

Texas sits at the top in The Houston Chronicle’s SEC Power Rankings, but the upcoming Lonestar Showdown is a must-win.

The SEC Championship is on the line for the Longhorns and the Aggies.

Bohls said it will come down to whether Texas’ offensive weapons can break through a tough Aggie defensive line. He also predicted that Arch Manning could get playing time if Ewers isn’t at the top of his game.

You can watch the Lonestar Showdown on ABC13 on Saturday night. Kickoff is set for 6:30 p.m.

Texas vs. Texas A&M football picks: What the oddsmakers say

A classic college football rivalry returns after more than a decade and with plenty on the line as Texas visits Texas A&M on Saturday night. Here’s what the oddsmakers are predicting for the game.

Texas improved to 6-1 in SEC play and stayed atop the conference standings after knocking off Kentucky, and needs to win this game in order to earn a place against Georgia in the SEC title bout.

Likewise for the Aggies, but they’re coming off a four-overtime loss against Auburn that dropped the team to 8-3 overall and 5-2 in conference games.

What do the wiseguys expect as the Longhorns and Aggies meet this weekend?

Let’s check in with the early predictions for Texas vs. Texas A&M in this Week 14 college football game, according to the oddsmakers.

Texas is a 6 point favorite against Texas A&M, according to the updated lines posted to FanDuel Sportsbook.

The book set the total at 48.5 points for the game.

And it lists the moneyline odds for Texas at -230 and for Texas A&M at +195 to win outright.

Texas: -6 (-110)
Texas A&M +6 (-110)

Over 48.5 points: -110
Under 48.5 points: -110

Texas is 6-5 against the spread (54.6%) overall this season …

Texas A&M is 3-8 (27.3%) ATS in ‘24 …

Texas is 2-2 against the spread in road games …

Texas A&M is 2-5 ATS at home …

Texas is 1-4 against the spread in its last 5 games …

A&M is 2-6 ATS in its last 8 home games …

Texas is 4-1 against the spread in its last 5 games played in Week 14 …

The total went over in 5 of Texas A&M’s last 6 games …

The total went under in 6 of Texas’ last 7 games and 7 of its last 9 road games …

A&M is 3-10 ATS in its last 13 games on a Saturday …

A plurality of bettors expect the Longhorns will take care of the Aggies on the road, according to the spread consensus picks for the game.

Texas is getting 63 percent of bets to win the game and cover the narrow point spread.

The other 37 percent of wagers project Texas A&M will either win outright in an upset or keep the game under a touchdown margin in a loss.

The game’s implied score suggests a narrow victory for the Longhorns over the Aggies.

When taking the point spread and total into consideration, it’s implied that Texas will defeat Texas A&M by a projected score of 28 to 22.

Our early pick: Texas A&M +6 … Strange things can happen at Kyle Field under the lights, especially as this intense rivalry game is resurrected, and with so much on the line, so asking for a greater than touchdown margin might be too much, and this is a game the Aggies can outright win.

When: Sat., Nov. 30
Where: College Station, Tex.

Time: 6:30 p.m. Central
TV: ABC network
