September flew by like a blur! I was sick for a few weeks, had a huge event followed by several smaller events, and a birthday to keep me busy. While I am way behind on blogging, I am thrilled to share some new finds and meal that I’ve tried lately. A new place that we visited over Labor Day weekend was Lucy’s Fried Chicken. Lucy’s is an Austin “famous” location that we hadn’t made it to, as it was not super close to us. A new location opened in Cedar Park pretty close to Whitestone Brewery. I will admit that I really don’t like fried foods very much, but I am a fan of chicken. We both tried the chicken tenders and split a side of macaroni and cheese. The chicken tenders were delicious and the basket was a very generous portion. We probably could have split them (especially because I was pretty sick when we ate here). The macaroni and cheese was pretty disappointing. It was low on the cheese factor. We knew we would definitely head back and we did this past weekend. This time I tried the chicken nachos and Mike got a Devil’s Cove Chicken Sandwich. We were both pleased with our choices. The nachos were a huge portion and I definitely loved the garnish of a chicken wing on top. Mike’s sandwich was not fried chicken and the chicken was actually served cold-a sandwich that I would definitely enjoy. We really like the food at Lucy’s and the cute environment. This will definitely be a place that we share with friends and family who come to visit.
