Austin Grille at Barton Creek Resort - Austin, TX

First, a little about Barton Creek.  It’s a resort hotel – nice big rooms, two golf courses, tennis, pools, etc.  They have a deal going on where the room, unlimited golf during your stay, and a gourmet breakfast can be had for $211/night.  It’s a steal.

I played a great round of golf, with rentals ($75 bucks), in what felt like 800 degree heat.  There was no one on the course – a full round in 3 hours.  Granted, it’s a tuesday, but that is still fantastic.

For lunch we dined in the Austin Grille room.  I had grilled fish taco’s.  They were delicious, albeit a fairly small portion.  My buddy Dan had a steak and cheese sandwich, which was juicy and delicious – and the opposite of small.

Later on that night I had a nice bottle of Rombauer merlot and a hunk of fantastic carrot cake – drizzled with butterscotch with nice fresh whip cream.  Good stuff.

The prices were very reasonable considering its a resort and all.
