My husband and I have visited Austin several times this year. Here’s why we’ll be going back:
Tortillas – It seems that a lot of restaurants in Austin make their own tortillas. They bring them to your table within minutes of making them. Add a little pat of butter and spoonful of salsa and instant heaven! I could eat them every day.
El Chile Café’ y Cantina – I love Mexican food and insisted that we eat it at least 2 times each day. This was one of our favorites. The jalepeno infused margaritas are exceptional.
Flaco’s Tacos – We had breakfast here numerous times during our visits. I just can’t get enough of their tortillas, refried beans and breakfast tacos. I wish they delivered to Boulder.
Juan in a Million – Ha, love the name and the food!
Cisco’s Restaurant – Bars on the windows, plastic booths, cafeteria type plastic plates…. Another “hole in the wall” winner!
Coffee and Treats – We loved Walton’s Fancy and Staple. It’s a bakery, coffee shop, and sandwich counter, as well as a florist and gift shop. Love their espresso and Golden Egg pastry (this is a nutmeg cake rolled in cinnamon/sugar).
Boot Store – There is something about cowboy boots that I love. Allen’s Boots on Congress is awesome. The smell of leather hits you as soon as you walk in the door. I dare you to go in and not try on at least 3 pair!
FRIENDS – We have dear friends that we have re-connected with and look forward to seeing them again!
