My favorite brunch in Austin! The food is incredibly delicious, the scene is romantic, quiet, and cozy, and it's right down the street. The bamboo surrounding the garden keeps this little cafe a hidden secret :)

Korean BBQ. Chi'Lantro has food trucks as well, which are constantly moving around. The kimchi fries are a reason I can't leave Austin :) Their food options are healthy, filling and flavorful!

Parks & Nature

The hike and bike trails are over 12 miles long. My favorite morning routine is to walk the trails starting at the Mexican American Cultural center on Rainey street, head towards I-35, cross the bridge heading south, continue west on the boardwalk, cross over the Congress bridge heading north, walk east on the trail and end at Alta's Cafe for a smoothie, coffee or tacos. You'll see walkers, runners, bikers and lots of dogs!
