Alright, it is time to come clean… I did not really go on a vacation to Austin, Texas..<\/div>\n

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*).<\/p>\n

My favorite restaurants (in no particular order)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
1. Congress Street Cafe: We had the crab cake eggs Benedict and the carrot cake french toast<\/div>\n
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!<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
2. Amy’s Ice Cream: Wow. Best Mexican Vanilla Ice Cream on earth. We went twice. That’s right. Sweet Indulgence!<\/div>\n
Thanks Danielle Jeanne for this suggestion! It quite possibly made the whole trip!<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
3. Boulden Creek Coffeehouse: Such a charming cafe. All of the food is organic, and they have a great selection of unique and healthy breakfast options. We had the blueberry cornbread cakes (with coffee for me, of course).<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
4. Hula Hut’s: A great atmosphere with some of the best tortillas I have ever eaten!\u00a0<\/div>\n
Thanks Kim! This was the first restaurant we tried and it definitely set the mood for TexMex!<\/b><\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
5. Hey Cupcake: So good. Especially if you make them whippersnappers (whipped cream down the center of the cake)! Pumpkin was my favorite, but WOW was the line long!<\/b>\n<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
6. Cafe Crepe: Downtown little eatery with fun French Decor. Delicious savory and sweet crepes (we had a nutella filled crepe)!<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
7. Joe’s Coffee: We grabbed some of the tastiest breakfast tacos on our way to a wedding. Absolutely spectacular food. The setting is outdoors, and the weather allowed for us to have a great time sitting on SoCo enjoying our food. Oh, and their Pumpkin Spice Latte could teach Starbucks a thing or too!<\/p>\n

8. Holy Cacoa: Best “Cake Shake” I have ever had! Seriously, this needs to be made at my house. Cake and ice cream blended together equals a happy Stacie! <\/p><\/div>\n

<\/div>\n
There were many other restaurants, but these are the ones that stick out the most. Now I am off to eat healthy and try to combat all of the delicious food that I have eaten over the past week.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Thanks for reading! I will post more about Austin tomorrow! -Stacie<\/div>\n
