I checked the menu and didn't see any milkshakes. They have paletas, which, though delicious, do not come near the loveliness of a milkshake.

I love Which Wich! Haven't had a shake, but they look good. Mighty Fine (up north, I do go north sometimes, lol) also has delicious shakes!

I'll have to go there. The which wich is 2 blocks from my work in downtown Austin so I spend many of my lunches there. It is on 3rd and Lavaca. Seems like they are going up all over the place. There is a new one on Brodie and 290 by Petsmart and another one in the Hill Country Galleria.

As soon as I got on my scoot the rain started coming down. Maybe tomorrow. I never thought I'd complain about any rain we got this summer but I was all ready to go.

I can give a hint if y'all need one. It's been there so long you drive by and don't even see it anymore. It's in North Central Austin.

I say wait for hints for awhile to see if someone else knows it. I probably don't know it because I am mainly in Downtown and SW Austin most of the time.

I'm betting Steve_in_Austin Knows it. Too bad he's out of the country this week. I'm holding off hints for now unless y'all want them.

I'm pretty sure my first thought was wrong, but for some reason I feel like it's on N. Lamar... Haven't had a chance to check it out, and with the ominous storm clouds building...

That's the Corner Shoppe Mall at the intersection of N. Lamar and Old Koenig Rd. Looks like a pretty interesting place, I'll have to add it to my list of "go tos".

Yes no hints on my part. I can't even get there yet. Well with my scoot anyways. My goal right now is to keep this thread busy so when I can ride it is still active.
I already know what my tag will be if I get it before someone else. |

I know where it is too but I had to turn my vespa into the shop today to have new front shocks installed. I hope to get it back Sat.. Maybe i'll know the new place by then and can nab it on my way home. Good job Khaiku on the one I posted! I thought that one might take longer.

I figured it wouldn't. You seem to get by the vespa dealer more than I do! Haven't been in there this week though. Last week once and probably 5 to 10 times the week before haha.

I had to pick up my license plate yesterday and figured I would combine the tag ride with that (so -- hint, hint, the new tag location is somewhere between the old one and the Vespa dealer).
