Actually, the grilled burgers at Central Market Cafe are pretty darn good. And there's plenty of rabbit fare for your SO. I hate the sweet pickles, but otherwise I'm all over the 3 cheese burger.

Yes, Dusty, I want to try CM.  I don't like eating at CM in the winter because it gets too crowded and noisy.  We were there to hear the Gulf Coast Playboys the other night.  I had my first BBQ sandwich since moving to Austin.  It was good, and so were the fries.  Todd does eat fish, he thought the catfish was also one of the better we've had in town.
