— Spun Ice Cream, known for its nitrogen-cooled sweets, is opening a permanent shipping container shop in the Domain Northside, next door to Whole Foods Market. Starting today, its hours are from 12:30 to 10 p.m. every day. Its ice cream truck will be used for events and the such until it figures out a new location.

— Dan's Hamburgers' North Lamar location was robbed by two armed men at 11:30 p.m. on Monday evening. They took money, though the amount wasn't revealed.

Statesman writer Addie Broyles attempted to find out which Austin restaurants and markets purchased frozen tuna that was potentially contaminated with Hepatitis A, because the New Braunfels branch of global food service company Sysco was affected. She found that Sysco wouldn’t reveal which restaurants would have been affected, so Austinites are unsure if they ate the possibly tainted meat. She noted that Central Market was included in the recall list, which was used in the cafe in early May.

— Texas Book Festival announced its initial author lineup, which includes Top Chef judge Gail Simmons and former New York Times food writer Mark Bittman. Simmons will cook from her new cookbook Bringing It Home and Bittman will talk about his released cookbook How to Cook Everything Vegetarian. It takes place on Saturday and Sunday, November 4 to 5.

Marie Claire shared recipes for Perla’s boozy blue cocktail and Prohibition Creamery’s mezcal milkshake.
