President Obama in Austin, Nightcap’s Sweet Sunday Brunch, and More A.M. Intel

— Things like SXSW don't concern President Barack Obama, who is hosting a fundraiser at the Austin Music Hall on Friday, March 11 (the first day of the festival). His previous visits included trips out to Franklin Barbecue, Magnolia Cafe, and Stubb’s. He also attended events catered by Fresa’s Chicken al Carbon and John Mueller. Any guesses on which restaurant will cater this time?

— Uchiko executive chef Sterling Ridings sang the praises of Japanese paste yuzu kosho, calling the spicy citrus paste "alive almost."

— Boozy dessert bar Nightcap now offers Sunday brunch with Bloody Marys, blood orange margaritas, and dishes like pancakes, steak and eggs, and something called Cookie Cereal made with puffed rice and mint milk. It’s available from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Have you made plans for brunch tomorrow yet?? You might wanna just check us out!! 11am-3pm, every Sunday! pic.twitter.com/ngpEf4cVMo
