Round rock doughnuts

Place was packed but very good. Review will be up soon!

Austin!

Headed to Austin let me know where we should stop. Just a day trip not alot of time but going to make the best of it.

The Cattle Baron in Abilene,Tx

So based on others, and Yelpers I decided to go to the Cattle Baron and try a burger, you know me a burger! We walked in and noticed place looked "baronish" , greeted friendly at the door and then walked all the way past all the tables and taken to a back room, mind you were only ones here.
 I was like "sweet" they've heard of me and I'm getting special treatment....nope. So the hostess leaves and waitress walks up takes order all normal here. Menu has burgers named after Texas cities, kinda cool, other than the meatless "Dallas" lol stupid Dallas, jk.
 We get the onion rings for an appetizer, recommended by our server saying they were her favorite thing they had...note: should have taken notice a bit closer. After about 5 min she walks back up and tells us might be longer because they cut batter and fry to order the rings. Ok! now a bit more excited.

Onion rings were best thing I had. The fries were ok the burger nope good try. The meat only had a charcoal burned flavor but looked and wasn't burnt. The staff needs alot of training. And why I'd it that I always get a huge family with small kids RIGHT NEXT TO ME!  The hostess sat families at every table all the way around me. Rest of place was empty!!

After the meal we go to leave and the owner/manager? asked us how meal was. I told him same thing I'm telling you now and instead of being apologetic like I was expecting he just didn't seem too concerned. However said he would look into whats going on in the back.

My suggestions to the Cattle Baron, presentation was spot on! A but lets work on the quality. What food looks like gets you first bite, taste is what brings us back. Meat to bun ratio, bread was good and pretty but patty too flavorless and small.

Suggestions to Travelers, Go and try for yourself let me know, maybe it was just my experience. But now I'm leery about another chance.

Check website for pictures and more reviews as always!

Cap Rock Winery

Cap Rock Winery408 E Woodrow Rd
Lubbock, TX 79423
(806) 686-4452

On our trip to Lubbock we visited many places and a few wineries at that. We had actually been To Cap Rock several years back and loved the grounds and building but only liked one of the wines we tried. This time we were with friends and wanted to show them how pretty the place was and said don't expect too much from the wine we didn't care for it last time.
    We go in and did have to wait a little because there were a few people there, but no big deal gave me time to take pictures.  Once we stepped up, everything was easily explained and staff was very friendly.
We tried several wines and I tell you....I loved most of them! The Orange Muscat is unbelievable.
We were the last ones in there and kept talking and I explained that I was reviewing for Yelp and that I have my growing website. Rusty was great, he helped with questions and the history of the winery and soon to be vineyard. He took us on the tour and we talked way past closing.
    The grounds are beautiful and they are setting up different events (check their calendar on website) along with rooms for whatever. There are picture perfect scenes for weddings or just a romantic kiss.
    If you had gone in the past and didn't have a good experience, take my word for it, give them another another try I really dont think you'll be disappointed. Cap Rock is now female owned and seems very involved with her business.
Yelp wouldn't allow me to give five stars however I would have mostly for the staff, grounds..oh yea and the wine.  Stop by and have a glass of wine and relaxhttp://www.caprockwinery.com//index.cfm

Candles are lit, table cloths ironed, shirt pressed, wine open and the wood grill is fired up. Step into a quite near perfect evening. Start it off with a Key lime martini and then move to the calamari served in a martini glass. The next course a crisp green salad now the main coarse. Many to choose from and the steaks are really good. Always the perfect wine to go with whatever you choose. The steaks are amazing, the fish is delicious and sure whatever they have as a special is top notch.

     The service has always been great and if you have a special occasion tell them during the reservation and (for an extra charge of course) they have flowers or notes set up for you. The perfect romantic evening is awaiting your call at Copper Creek.

Now, with all that said.....you will pay for all this.

Gym

So after all the wine and eating all for you guys. I must workout

Abilene Texas

Well good morning! I think today I will search out a new place, maybe a place to eat or snack, maybe it'll it'll be... I don't know yet. I've been to just about everywhere here. They're opening new places all the time though.

I you didn't know a new Chic-fli-li is opening north side and a Heffs burger. The north side going to get crowded. I haven't added a review on Heffs so you might not know what that is. Hmm ok I'll put it in just cause.

Bad citizen

So this realtor randy Dodd. Has been going around town posting things on YouTube and yelp foursquare. At first they look nice for him to make money. But when you see his comments and pics it shows a darker side. This pic came from a YouTube video he could make money off of. And at a family place is this ok?

So still uploading and syncing, kinda a pain learning all this, I sure would rather be on the road

Now have a Google+ page find me there too, wow getting alittle overwhelmed
