Glimpse on Austin III

The Belmont. This is where we had our dinner on the second day. For your information, country music is one of the Texas's element. My hubby and I picked this restaurant randomly at the downtown because there was a live band from 9p.m to 12a.m. LIVE BAND!!


His local brew beer (a must-try). I sipped and it tasted as smooth as water.


My Mexican Martini (a must-try too). Thumb ups! Smoother than typical martini.


Crews were setting up the stage. See, I was at the front!!


His grilled burger. Oh gosh, the cheese was melting!!!


My shrimp pasta. The Parmesan cheese were glistering.


The theme of that night was Cha Cha. They sang Spanish songs in Cha Cha tempo. I felt like I was dinning on sandy beach. So relaxing...


Last but certainly not least, the cheesecake dessert.


I wonder all the customers were there for dancing instead of eating. Guess what, they are well-trained.

However, too much cook spoil the soup.

There was one fellow (at his late 50's I guess) kept dancing on every single song the band played. Twisting his butt on the dance floor without concerning my appetite. Uncle, do you think you need some rest seriously? Osteoporosis is a big deal.

Well, that's my sincere advice though. The following day, we extended our Texas food adventure to a new level. This time is real Mexican foods, dude.


Iron Cactus was the name of the restaurant. We were seated in the bar while waiting for our turn. Drinks! Drinks! Drinks!


Recognize these? Yup, that's were Magaritas! The ordinary Magarita (on the left) was mine, the Jalapeno Magarita (on the right of course) was him. These are the best of Texas!



OMG...The cheese was so creamy!! I'm a big fan of cheese. We had nachos (mexican chips) with Magaritas. So dreamy...


I was stuffed with chips and cheese. Therefore, this Mexican wrap appetizer, Quesilladas will be just nice for me.


He ordered a Tequila Ginger Glazed Breast of Chicken. What a glamor name. Not only looked great but taste good also.

Obviously, I was having a break for my diet plan (wink wink). Let's put yourself in my shoe. How can you say "NO" to all these irresistible foods? It was so enticing! I don't care if I gain more pounds, I DON'T CARE...
