Fun times in Austin


On Saturday, we decided to take a short day trip to Austin--our state capital. It was such a charming city. The first place we visited was another Man vs. Food joint called Round Rock Donut.

It is the home of the Texas sized donut. These donuts were unbelievable and well worth the drive.

Afterwards, we decided to visit the famous pink granite state capital building. We were in awe of the intricate detail in the floors and in the woodwork.




Before we left, we went to a local favorite called Hut Burgers. I ordered the Fats Domino burger complete with cheese, onion, tomato, jalapeno and creole seasoning. It was fantastic. The onion rings were also a treat--they had cracked black pepper in the batter. YUM!


Here are a few pics of the kids biting into the Texas Donut!
