Food Is Good

When my wife and I travel, we tend to base our experiences off of what food is available and what food we consume.

I don't think that's really right or wrong. But I do think it's rather unique.

When others look through our travel photos, they either laugh or remark how good of an idea it is that we take so many photos of  the food we eat. And as we think back over our travel, we tend to rate our trips based upon how good the food was.

So, with that in mind, a trip to Austin, Texas last year was really, really good.

My mouth waters just thinking about it. The top pic is from Juan in a Million in Austin. I wouldn't necessarily say it's the be breakfast taco I've ever had. But it's definitely the largest.

Then there's Kreuz's Market in Lockhart. Hands down, best barbeque brisket I have ever had. Wow. So good you don't even need any sauce. And that's a good thing because they don't serve it, anyway.

Then there's Lone Star Donuts in Round Rock. Yep, they make a donut that is that big. We didn't get it. But their regular-sized donut is out-of-this-world.

One could have a great trip to Austin just by eating their way through these places. And as you find with most great eateries, it's not just the food but also the experience, the charm of the place where you eat it that makes the experience what it is.
