Gott’s Roadside

Now that summer is in full swing, I love spending my weekends wine tasting in Napa. My first stop before drinking commences is fueling up at Gott’s Roadside. The original is located off of the 29 in Saint Helena on the way to the wineries. However, they also have one in the heart of Napa, at the Ferry Building in San Francisco, and Palo Alto.IMG_2066

Frank

I first tried Frank, Austin’s famous sausage joint, at Austin City Limits. They had a limited menu so I ordered their only sausage item: grilled bratwurst sammie.   

 The bratwurst, topped with grilled onions and sauerkraut, was juicy and delicious. I loved the Frank bun, which is a sliced white bread bun, that they used to hold the sausage.  

 One night, I stopped by the brick and mortar store, as this was one of the few places open after 11 pm in downtown Austin. My friends and I shared the chili cheese waffle fries. The chili was hearty but the waffle fries left a lot to be desired.  

 From their specialty sausages, I ordered the Creole Gator. It is an alligator sausage topped with crawfish popcorn, crystal slaw, scallions, and Creole remoulade on a Frank bun. It was a hefty sausage but tasty. Left me in a food coma shortly afterwards.
