#5: Meatloaf — 24 Diner
"High-quality comfort food" is what Executive Chef Andrew Curren serves at 24 Diner in Austin. His meatloaf is unlike any other — it's made with 30 ingredients and even contains Monterey Jack cheese. To make sure that no one has to fight over who gets the crispy ends, slices of meatloaf are seared in a cast-iron pan to develop a crust before going out to diners. Curren even dares to say that his meatloaf is better than his mom's.
