Restaurants on the Road
Where to dine on I-35
By Virginia B. Wood, Fri., Jan. 25, 2002
Our assigned task was to take short detours off the interstate and see if it was possible to find reliable meals in locally owned restaurants in some of the small Central Texas burgs along the road. Chronicle contributing food writers Rachel Feit, MM Pack, and I checked out the small-town dining scenes from New Braunfels to Georgetown and discovered four independent restaurants to recommend. Each has its own personality and is well worth a visit if you find yourself hungry along this particular stretch of Central Texas highway. For a listing of previous Central Texas restaurants we've deemed "worth driving for," check out this week's "Second Helpings" column as well.
