Doing the Hula in Austin

We made a quick trip to Austin and so last night we went to our favorite restaurant, Hula Hut. We manage to squeeze a meal in at Hula Hut every time we visit our daughter in Austin. Hula Hut is located on the water with a huge deck overlooking several boat slips for customers to visit, which makes having drinks during the long wait not only bearable, but quite fun. The food is Mexican/Hawaiian fusion which puts a unique twist on typical Mexican dishes. I was ready to try one of their new entrees (Chile Rellenos), but they were out of it. I quickly slipped back to my standard favorite Grilled Fish Tacos with a Jalapeno Lime Sauce, which is what I get almost every time. They are always fresh, perfectly cooked and not too filling. My husband ordered the Chile-Rubbed Salmon Tacos, which he thoroughly enjoyed. My daughter had the Stuffed Avocado, which was stuffed with chicken, cheese and sauce, then rolled in a batter and fried. Absolutely decadent! Our future son-in-law had the Macadamia Crusted Mahi-Mahi which came with a salad including mangoes and pistachios dressed with a vinaigrette. Everyone was very pleased with the choices made. We will definitely continue our tradition of visiting every time we go to Austin.
