Weekend in Austin

Posted on May 20, 2014September 18, 2016 by Lanie Fioretti

Had a weekend away in Austin, and made it a bit of a restaurant tour!

We started the trip by having breakfast a Greenhouse Craft Food in Round Rock.  It’s just south of IKEA, and they have really good food.  We will definitely be going back.  I had breakfast tacos with their homemade chorizo, and Don had biscuits and gravy.

Then it was on to Austin to do a few errands, go to a couple more studios on the West Side Studio Tour, and lunch of course.  We went back to Epicerie.  Their menu changes regularly, and everything is still delicious!  I had a burger and fries, but there was also a gourmet grill cheese with tomato soup, porchetta sandwich, and caesar salad at the table.

Saturday night we made our way to Hopfields for a light supper.  I had an octopus salad with potatoes, caper berries, and peppers.  It was fabulous, but a nicoise salad was also at the table, and a definite runner up for fabulousness.

Sunday morning, we had brunch at Tyson’s Tacos on Airport Blvd.  It was a great morning to sit outside and have a good Mexican breakfast.  Got no pictures, you just have to try it!
