A Traveling Foodie’s Review
Come along on my adventures from where I eat to where I travel to. Don’t be afraid to try new places it’s a big world out there! Send me your suggestions on where I should visit.
Black Walnut Cafe
Today I had lunch with my mother in law at Black Walnut Café. I fell in love with this place as soon as I walked in. Since they have a counter you walk up to place your order at there’s a fantastic seating area right as you walk in so you don’t block the whole area...
Alicia’s Mexican Grille
Alicia’s Mexican Grille just opened up with in the past week or two. They currently have locations in Houston, Cypress and Spring, this is their 4th location to open. This place is larger then most of the Mexican restaurants in Katy. You walk in and there’s a warm...
The Dig Pub
I had read a lot of good reviews about The Dig Pub in Cedar Park, Texas so I was excited to give it a try. While the inside is not that big there’s a big game room area with a stage for bands and an outdoor seating area. We tried several of the local Austin brews...
Dee Dee’s Tacos & More
As we where heading back home we stopped at Dee Dee’s Tacos & More for lunch on the way out. We went inside to eat which if you have time do that otherwise you get served faster by calling it in or doing the drive through. I don’t know how many orders came after...
Torchy’s Tacos
We’ve been to the food truck for Torchy’s Tacos in Austin last year (click HERE to see more) and saw that they had one on the south side of Lake Travis so we thought we would stop in for a quick bite. The reviews on foursquare rave about a Trailer Park Taco and to be...
Stonehouse Wood Fire Grill – Food Truck
While we where driving around on the south side of Lake Travis we stopped at Stonehouse Wood Fire Grill’s food truck. I wanted to try the chicken kabob’s, but he said they where slammed today and he was out of them. Instead we ordered the Marinated Lamb Kabobs $9...
Bam’s Roadhouse Grill
When you are on the north side of Lake Travis you don’t have a lot of options on places to eat which is fine with me, but it is nice to have a few choices. We stopped at Bam’s Roadhouse Grill for dinner on our way in town. They have a nice open patio area where...
The Island On Lake Travis
We stayed this past weekend on Lake Travis on the Island of Lake Travis. It’s a resort style place where you can buy a condo or rent one when you go up there. We stayed in unit 3309. There’s several misleading things about the pictures on the site. For example the...
Kenzo Sushi
Tonight we met up with my mother in law for my husband’s birthday dinner at Kenzo Sushi Bistro. I haven’t been here since they opened a long time ago so I don’t have anything to really compare to last time. I really liked that you could enjoy the happy hour prices in...
Dim Sum King
Today we had a very special treat! D and I are always looking for new cuisines to try and it’s even better when you have a guide that will take you to the more authentic places. With us today was our neighbor and good friend Lin. He and his wife where kind enough to...
Day 9 – Savannah, GA
I’m a little sad we didn’t get to visit Firefly Plantation which didn’t open until 11am as well as Charleston Tea Plantation. They’ll be on my list to see next time I go back. We had to hurry this morning and jump in the car to drive 2 1/2 hours to Savannah, GA in...
Day 8 – Charleston, SC
This morning we headed into Charleston, SC downtown to take a 9:30am tour of Fort Sumter ($17 per adult), the spot where the first shots of the Civil War were fired. If I could do it again I would skip this and take the Naval and Maritime Tour at Patriot Point....
