Sounds delish, right? So what is with the rating?! Price. I hate to say this but SoBro is way over priced. That calzone was intended to be split between Mike and I because everywhere else that you buy a calzone, they are typically enough to feed, like, seventeen people. Well, that calzone would have been just enough for me and it costs $10. I can get on board with the fresh ingredients and sauce and yahda yahda, but $10?! Their personal pan pizzas range from $17-18. #noway
The taste was on point and we were impressed with the service too. She felt bad for making us "wait" to get our check and boom, we got $3.00 off our bill. The people here are so nice!
lick - 5 out of 5 stars
So after leaving SoBro and still being a bit hungry, we decided to find some dessert. We walked one block down the street and ran into lick. lick was amazing. This Austin-based ice cream shoppe is known for their locally based ingredients and very unique flavors.

Pardon the photo - my iPhone 5 camera is broken -____-. That above is no justice to two of the weirdest but most delicious ice cream flavors I have ever had: Gorgonzola, Thyme, and Honey on the bottom and Dark Chocolate, Olive Oil, and Sea Salt on the top. I know, I know - sounds absolutely terrible. However, it was amazing. I can't even describe. Come visit me and you'll see.
Service - perfect. The guy let us try everything we wanted, made amazing recommendations, and even complimented Mike's shirt. Price - not bad at all $3 and change I think.
This, my friends, is just Thursday. There is much more to come! Stay tuned.
