A Few Local Hotspots

Brett is back in Austin visiting for the upcoming holiday....so, today, we met Laura, Ava, and Aunt Beth for lunch at a local favorite, Top Notch. The owner recently passed away, and the restaurant closed for a short time because it was feared that the secret recipe went with him....but a short time afterwards, it was announced that Top Notch would reopen. Thank goodness for all...I hadn't ever been there either!


It was so packed that we had to wait for cars that were trying to exit the parking lot, and go around the ones that were desperately trying to find spots in the grass. It was worth the wait, in line inside too.....yummy stuff!


I took Brett to another local favorite spot for dinner....and a movie. We met Toni and Scott at Alamo Drafthouse to see 007 Quantum of Solace tonight. The opening scene almost had too much action to pay attention to, but we made it through, and all gave it thumbs up!
