Texas Plans

This is what you've all been waiting for. I know it's weird that I'm sharing this but I take pride in the fact that I work for a long time before a trip to devise eating plans. Some of these as well may be a bit peculiar (or normal if you relate it to my bad eating habits) but it's the "Lone Star State" that has me eating double my weight in fried food. It's not only big meals, it involves snacks too, and I've done a lot of work researching the best local places to eat.

HERE WE GO:

Day 1:
Not the fattest day at all, though I picked out a restaurant for the first night since this is the day that we are flying in and are going to be staying at the University most of the day for the convention. The restaurant I picked is called La Condesa, a Mexican Restaurant located in Austin. It may not seem like much but it has surprisingly great ratings for the low prices.

Day 2:
Another day at the University, however, even though I haven't picked any place to go for lunch, I've located a brilliant looking BBQ joint that we'll have to travel about 25 miles out of Austin to get it. That's how good it looked. It's called "The Salt Lick BBQ."

Day 3:
Up to Dallas, though on the way up we are going to take a stop at Round Rock Doughnuts to wait on a long line for some great looking doughnuts and maybe even the 14 inch "Texas Doughnut." I'm still working on finding a place for dinner, I know that Dallas is a town where beef is important and I'll check up for something having a great deal of beef. Maybe BBQ again...

Day 4:
My plan is to go and visit the Fort Worth Stock Yards for a day consisting of not sight-seeing, but DOUBLE STEAK. Now, I'm not having all of that all at once, though I plan on having lunch at this place called The Star Cafe and have a large plate of chicken fried steak and for dinner, I plan on going to Riscky's Steakhouse for traditional Texas steak prepared well!

These are my plans so far. I might give some updates depending on if there is anything notable to say.
