The Boiling Pot, Austin

Don’t wear your white shirts to this down-and-dirty seafood joint! Your waitress will robe you up with a plastic bib and hand you a wooden mallet, then set before you your task: a pan filled with spicy boiled shrimp, crab claws, Cajun sausage, corn on the cob, and potatoes, all spilled out on the “tablecloth” of white butcher paper.

Roll up your sleeves and get to work.
