Come rain or come shine, the lighting of the square in Georgetown was scheduled to happen on the day after Thanksgiving.
This is our tradition and is the most amazing way to start the Christmas holidays. Carolers and children and Old St. Nicholas! Heavy mist and freezing wind couldn’t keep us away.
If you haven’t seen the town square at night in December, you simply must make that happen. Come get in the spirit of the season with thousands of white lights in the trees and Christmas decorations galore!
While we love all the new restaurants popping up in Georgetown and Round Rock, sometimes we venture into Austin to have a nice dinner as well. When we happen upon a nice restaurant, we like to tell you about it. And boy did we enjoy this one.
We went to visit the new and “happening” Revival Cycles clothing and apparel shop (which just happens to be Paula & Bob Brent’s son’s shop) on South Congress. After admiring every square inch of the shop, we decided to have dinner at the restaurant next door: Café No Se. It is located in the new and innovative South Congress Hotel which is already such a place to gather. The entire hotel was already fully booked.
Knowing the owner of Revival Cycles helped a lot because we got a private tour of the kitchen of this very amazing restaurant and got to see how they put together all of the food we had just devoured. And I mean we ate every single bite of our food. We also got a tour of the hotel’s facilities and it is just a very hip place to stay and enjoy downtown.
We’ll do a separate blog on Revival Cycles….but, in the meantime, enjoy these photos of these delicious, unbelievable foods we enjoyed at Café No Se. Ha… We got so excited when the desserts came out that we forgot to take photos of them….but just know that they were every bit as fun as the entrees and appetizers.
Oh my…now that I think about it, I think we ate one of everything there. And boy was it worth it!!
