austin: the food
Alright, it is time to come clean… I did not really go on a vacation to Austin, Texas..
I went to Austin for the (now annual) Bloomfield Tour de Food. That’s right. We were in Austin for all of 5 days and ate at no less than 20 different food establishments. We were in hog heaven (*note, that is the only Fayetteville, AR joke I will ever make associating myself with the city*).
My favorite restaurants (in no particular order)
1. Congress Street Cafe: We had the crab cake eggs Benedict and the carrot cake french toast
Thanks Brooke Ann Dove for the suggestion!* It was a smash! The little corn bread muffins served with the meal were just the icing on the cake!
2. Amy’s Ice Cream: Wow. Best Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream on earth. We went twice. That’s right. Sweet Indulgence!
Thanks Danielle Jeanne for this suggestion! It quite possibly made the whole trip!
