you know who would love this?

Last week a really sweet woman came in the deli and picked up a small tray of desserts. She was in town from New Braunfels, she explained, and needed to take some treats to somebody. She also told us about her business in New Braunfels - a restaurant called McAdoo's. She described the place and told us that it's located in the old post office building in downtown New Braunfels.  It sounded great, but what hooked us was when she said the words "Sunday" and "brunch."

While we have some great favorite spots in San Antonio to hit on Sundays, this past Sunday we thought a short road trip was in order,  so we headed to McAdoo's. While I drove, Mr. Beers looked at their website, getting directions, perusing the menu, looking at pictures.

Once we got to McAdoo's,  we were greeted and seated, and started enjoying the feeling that we had been transported to New Orleans. The decor, the menu, the vibe - all wonderfully New Orleans.

Mr. Beers enjoyed the Crab Cakes Benedict, while I had a really good cobb salad. I also enjoyed the crazy awesome bloody mary bar. We're already looking forward to a return visit. We caught ourselves using that phrase that pretty much guarantees that we'll go back: "You know who would love this?" And then we answered the question with a fairly decent list of friends and family members. Let's go back soon. Please.
