They did. :-) The Physical Therapist (Ashley) commented on how only a
few patients really appreciated their efforts and let them know it. I
had noted that on some mornings, the mom of one of the younger
gymnastics kids would bring Starbucks Coffee. <g>

I had to go by there for the Dr. to sign my release form for me to be
able to work with no restrictions, and when I drove by "Ironworks", I
thought "Hmmmmmm". It was close to noon so I thought "why not"?

The least I could do was buy them lunch. They were thrilled at getting
BBQ. :-) Ironworks is the best BBQ in Austin.

Kudos to Sqwertz for introducing me (and a few other austin.food
members) to that place!

I suspect it might be what they chose to eat (I'm not fond of anyones
Brisket but my own as it tends to be bland tasting).
That and it's pretty mild. One of the few places in Austin that does not
OVER-SALT the damned food!

I've had Rudy's in New Braunfels.
Horribly over-salted, but that's probably why it has high reviews. Many
people like over-salted. <sigh>
