Tiff's Tits

I am very cool because I am blogging right now.  All that aside.. Hello, this is Shannon and Miguel.  We are vegetarian foodies now living in Austin, Texas.  We started this blog to document our food encounters over the next couple of years with a goal of trying EVERY restaurant in Austin!  Our first review EVER is for Tiff's Treats on 18th Street and San Antonio.  We tried this gem for the first time yesterday although at first Miguel thought we were going to Tiff's Tits, hence the name.  This small establishment could be mistaken for someone's grandmother's house if it weren't for the little yard sign and picnic table out front.  Tiff's Treats is a cookie delivery service although if you opt to pick up you get to enjoy the smell of fresh baked treats and the complacent stare of a college kid.  We hate the service you get from places that hire only unseasoned workers, college kids or otherwise.  Thankfully after you pick up these delightful treats you enjoy nothing but bliss to the very last bite.  The best thing we have tried so far is the TiffWich, mmmm, a generous plop of "gourmet" Blue Bell ice cream between two warm cookies of deliciousness.  We make fun of people who try to pass off the Blue Bell Creamery as something special.  Last night Miguel got a peanut butter chocolate chip TiffWich and Shannon got half white chocolate almond and half butterscotch chip, we both thought our own was better.  The peanut butter chocolate chip was very rich and sweet while the half and half was a lighter, more crunchy sweetness.  It must be noted that all of this cost less than $5.  Of course since it is December, we have to have something sweet everyday so we went back again today.  We decided to stop by the store and get our own "gourmet" ice cream, neapolitan flavor, and a dozen cookies.  Half a dozen was the chocolate chip, recommended by the staff, and the other half was white chocolate almond.  Miguel agrees that the chocolate chip is the best cookie so far and we both agree that vanilla is the only way to go for a TiffWich!  While we will be back, we will still be on the look out for Austin's best cookie as the cookie's were not so stupendous that you have never tried anything like them.
