I had to make a last-minute trip yesterday to San Antonio.
(hey Smitty - it was really nice to meet you - the next time you’re in port bring your bike back to FS and we’ll take that trip to Big Bend you missed out on!)
On the way back to FS, we stopped in Boerne to grab some dinner. It was about 6:30 or so and I really didn’t want fast food, nor did I want Mexican food - so I drove further down into Boerne hoping something would be open. Right on the main street amongst antiques and candles shops is a little place called Boerne Grill. GO THERE. Make any excuse you can to drive through Boerne, Texas and GO to the Boerne Grill. This place is great! I was expecting burgers and such, but instead walked into a very comfortable coffee shop. Everyone there was very friendly, especially the staff. One look at the menu and I knew I was going to have trouble making my mind up. There wasn’t a single type of burger listed…but plenty of reubens and phillies and salads…just the descriptions made me excited. My better half wasn’t too excited about this “hippy” place I had selected, but it didn’t take long for him to change his mind when he got his philly steak and cheese sandwich. I finally settled on the Grilled Chicken and Pecan salad: grilled chicken, fresh salad, beautiful raspberry chipotle vinagrette dressing and molasses/cayenne crusted pecans. I was in heaven. On the way out I got a cappuccino and biscotti for the road.

If you do go to the Boerne Grill, tell them I sent you. And tell ME you went…and what you ordered so I won’t have as much trouble making a decision the next time I go.
