They have hundreds around Austin and the food critics say lot of them are very good. I found on my one visit that the price for food was the same as or greater than the same thing in a sit down restaurant. They are pretty proud of their stuff.

Austin's already a great town for good food. I can only imagine what the pop up's are like!

I never heard of it. I do not know if they are around here. I like more established places.

On the one hand it does have that "fly by night" feel ; on the other I can see this speak-easy kinda vibe being part of the attraction.

LT John Chang - I like that "speak-easy" vibe to describe the phenomena. I would think a great chef would stay at one place to maximize the reputation of the food.

SGT (Join to see) - as the author points out, the food trucks was the last wave. Pop-up's are just continuing this temporary nature of our increasing mobile world.
In military terms this reminds me of det's (aka "detachments") vs. full-on deployments where you set up operations for longer than say a few weeks.
