From Texas wagyu pho to Asian-inspired cocktails, Bites & Basil is putting a modern spin on Vietnamese cuisine in Hutto.<\/p>\n

The background<\/p>\n

Married couple Tumy and Phen Diep opened Bites & Basil in early January, building on the success of Broth & Basil, which they launched in Pflugerville in 2019. The couple saw room for more Vietnamese food in Hutto and a chance to grow their menu.<\/p>\n

\u201cHutto is such a fast-growing city,\u201d Tumy Diep said.<\/p>\n

On the menu<\/p>\n

The restaurant\u2019s most popular dish is its pho wagyu, made with beef from Austin-based Ranger Cattle. Tumy Diep said Bites & Basil was the first Austin-area restaurant to serve it. Other options include pho beef rib, marinated pork chop and rice, and vermicelli bowls. A bigger kitchen and full bar also make room for bar food like chicken wings and bun sliders.<\/p>\n

Happy hour runs 3-6 p.m., and the restaurant closes Sundays so staff can spend the day with family.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Tumble 22 opens its Arboretum location Nov. 7, leading this week\u2019s dining news across the metro.\u00a0 Elsewhere, Sichuan…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":487656,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[11],"tags":[132,134,133,163714,163716,162276,13633,163715,162106,6240,47512],"class_list":["post-487655","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-austin","tag-austin","tag-austin-headlines","tag-austin-news","tag-bed-rock-breakfast-bar","tag-bites-basil","tag-chuanbei-house","tag-hutto","tag-kindred-social","tag-kobo","tag-round-rock","tag-tumble-22"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487655","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=487655"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/487655\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/487656"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=487655"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=487655"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=487655"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
