Feeding on trout at Carencro, Louisiana
August 26, 2010
Last night was all about a quiet campsite and lighting a fire to cook on. E decided that it was time to eat simply so we broke out the piece of trout that we’d picked up in Austin, at the Wholefoods market they have there.
Black’s barbecue: a real meaty treat
August 24, 2010
It’s like an institution in Texas, only meatier. Barbecue is talked about with the kind of reverence given to ex-Presidents and football (American football, y’all…) but to be honest, our experience with it has been a little so-what, so far.
Release the bats
August 22, 2010
Release the bats, originally uploaded by fatfoodtaxi. We made it to the river in time to watch Austin’s bat population take to the air in search of tasty insect snacks. It kind of made us hungry, so we left and went in search of something less arthropodic for ourselves… and found some tasty plates in… [Read more…]
Stick-in-the-lake
August 21, 2010
Some photos from our camping evening at Benbrook Lake, near Fort Worth. Nothing food-related to report: we ate at a fairly second-rate bar which was only salvaged by the fact that the band were brilliant

Eureka! Good caw-fee at the Daily Roast
August 18, 2010
Found this little gem in Eureka Springs. Jim (in the photo) knew ALL about flat whites so he made me one!. If you’re in this neck of the woods sometime soon (shotgun weddings, retiring, you know the score) then look it up.
Burger Count #1
August 14, 2010
So, just over one week in and it’s probably time we updated our burger count. We have a small wager on our burger-total for this trip – not that we would be so shallow as to let that taint our overall burger consumption. No, not at all. Would never do that…I believe E’s prediction is… [Read more…]
The Dana-Thomas house
August 14, 2010
Frank Lloyd Wright, America’s legendary architect, was commissioned in 1902 to renovate and construct a show-piece house by the Thomas family. We had the chance to stop off there yesterday, in Springfield and I’m glad we did. The house itself has an almost Japanese aspect (as the guide said: although FLW insisted he was never influenced by anuone, he… [Read more…]
Outstanding in Madison’s Troy Gardens
August 13, 2010
This was it. After five days of high-tailing it across America’s mid-west to be here in Madison, Wisconsin, we were finally about to participate in the food-art spectacle that is Outstanding In the Field. Jim Denevan, his partner Leah and a troupe of willing assistants have been taking their outdoor dining concept on the road… [Read more…]
