Our plan was to grab some lovely pies at Blue Bonnet Cafe in Marble Falls after our visit to Longhorn Cavern State Park. However when reached Blue Bonnet Cafe around 5pm, we noticed the sign post stating "Sunday: 6am - 1:45pm". That explained why there was no sight of long queue at the facade like what happened when we passed by that morning!
 This incident somehow was a happy inconvenience. Instead of going for the pie, our instinct brought us to hunt for food at River City Grille Restaurant which happens to sits next to Colorado River. The restaurant offers two types of dining area, one being indoor in the rustic atmosphere by wood panels and mural walls. Second option is an outdoor patio overlooking the beautiful Lake Marble Falls. We opted for the outdoor patio (it is more popular and we did wait for a while) whereby the view of classical steel bridge across the river painted the landscape on the east while the calm Marble Falls Lake cutting through the country land on the west. What a picturesque Texas Hill Country spot to enjoy our early dinner!

 River City Grille serves a huge array of Texas cuisine from appetizers, soups, salads, sandwiches, tacos, a long list of entrees such as burger, seafood, beef, pork, chicken, not forgetting the tempting desserts and something for the kids as well.
 Since we had browsed through the menu while waiting to get a table for outdoor patio, it came pretty fast to made up our mind on what to fill our tummy.
 I went for 'Green Chile Pork Tacos' ($7.99). It was served in a basket with three flour tortillas filled with pulled pork and green chile sauce plus the French fries. My Significant Other picked a Tex-Mex entree - 'Tortilla Fried Catfish' ($12.99). The fillet of catfish was coated with crushed tortilla chips, served green chile rice and salad.
 For dessert, we went for Paul's Pie. Our mind was still on the pie I guess (despite of not getting the ones from Blue Bonnet Cafe!). The truth is Paul's Pie is not really a pie, it is more like a cake with a sizable ice-cream topping. Just perfect for someone with sweet tooth!
 Food, service and the atmosphere were great. Definitely will return if we happen to pass by Marble Falls again!
