Every so often we drive straight to our destination. We avoid back roads and stay on main highways. Today was one of those days when we decided to drive straight east on 290, then south on 281. Finally we drove around the north side of the lake on 306. Driving that route takes you right through Johnson City, the home town of LBJ.
Over the years, we have driven through Johnson City many times, but have never been able to find a decent restaurant. In fact, we told Ian and Rita not to bother stopping there. Today I was the driver and we arrived needing to eat lunch, so I turned off the main road and discovered a lovely town square, complete with a beautiful county court house and many lovely homes. But the best part was I found a restaurant, with 20 cars parked in front. It was The Pecan Restaurant and Brew Pub.
The place was charming and the food was good. And they do brew their own beer. Now we know. It just took us 17 years to get off the main road in order to find this good restaurant. Better late than never!!
