Saledo Texas

Saledo Texas is a cute little town about 40 miles North of Austin. I happened to stop in on a Sunday on a drive home with a friend of mine. First thing to note is that Saledo closes down on Sunday's. Shops may be open, but most all of the restaurants are closed by the evening. This really didn't bother us that much, but it may be a problem for some. There did seem to be a lot of really great places to eat there. The shops were mostly antiques and chachkies, something akin to a small Canton.

We stayed at the Inn on the Creek. We really enjoyed it, quant and quiet.

Breakfast was nice and yummy.













We made friends with the resident kitty. Really he just wanted Salami.





The creek provided nice scenery.

Don't let this sports bar fool you, Cover 3 in Austin has some serious good eats. Surprised? I was. We stopped in at Cover 3 on a girls trip to Austin. My friend said she had always heard great things about the food. I was unsure, but I went. I was more than surprised to find not only beautifully modern decor, but stellar food as well. I've been to some five star restaurants with food less inviting. The best thing on the table was the half pan seared chicken my friend ordered. This was just comfort food elevated to great. The Tuna appetizer was amazing and the peanut butter cheese cake-- well, words are hard to describe it.

Do yourself a favor and stop in for a visit.

Magnolia Cafe in Austin has the typical laid back eclectic vibe you expect from this towns eateries. The menu is varied with a brunch type feel. You can get eggs or you could have fish tacos. If I had a recommendation it would be the chocolate chip pancakes-- they are to die!
