We went out to a fancy place we’d never dare to take the kids. We had grown up food and beverages. We happened to arrive for dinner during happy hour so we were able to enjoy the happy hour specials (half off of the bar menu and all drinks) and our date night fell on a Wednesday which happened to be the day they offer oysters and champagne for half price. In fact the food we had was so delicious I just have to share our menu……

After dinner we explored 6th street for a bit and then made our way back to the hotel . We stopped for cocktails in our hotel and enjoyed Jalapeño and Cucumber Lemonades (vodka, jalapeño, cucumber water, lemon—it sounds odd but it was delicious).
During our stay in Austin we also enjoyed lunch at Which Which (delicious) and breakfast at the Magnolia Café (M: Queso Omelet and Gingerbread pancakes, L: Migas and Black Beans) also fantastic with a great Austin vibe!
