John invited us for a little get together at Black Star Co-op during our long Memorial Day weekend.
It’s a new place (probably the only place, actually) in the new development on Lamar and Airport Blvd.
It’s a place to go and kick back without much hassle. They have a lot of specialty micro-brews from locals and a fairly good selection of eats.
We got a few drinks, a few plates of food, and had a good time taking her easy…


Hello! My name is Chris and I'm an engineer and a photographer / contributor for Apartment Therapy. In high school my artistic side took a back seat as I pursued a career in math and science. Blogging, however, gives me the chance to bring that creative side front and center again. I'm a native Texan, living in Austin, and love all the things you'll find in a modern metropolis - technology, design, food, and the arts. I hope those interests come together here in pieces you enjoy reading. Thanks for stopping by.
