Whenever I have people visit San Antonio they always ask me where they should eat breakfast. One of the first places I always tell them to eat at is Lulu's Bakery and Cafe; home of the 3 pound cinnamon roll! Yes, you heard correctly, the 3 pound cinnamon roll. The funny thing is, I would suggest that my friends and guests eat here but I had never eaten here myself.

Here is a little bit of what we experienced during our trip to Gruene. When we arrived in Gruene, we had to eat. I wanted to eat by the river at an awesome place called Gristmill, but we … [Read more...]
