Cracker Barrel Sacto and Konditorei Austrian Pastry Davis April 23, 2019

Three of us head to Sacramento and the Tennessee chain restaurant, Cracker Barrel for lunch.  After which we will go to Davis for dessert at Konditorei Austrian Pastry. 
It's just the three founding members of Gobo's Lunch Bunch Elsa, Caroline and me. 




All of us have been to Cracker Barrels before but finally there is one that is less than 700 miles from home.



We were seated as we arrive since we have waited a number of months to let the "newness" of this one to wear off plus we are there at 11:30AM.

The gals settle on the Daily Lunch Special of Meatloaf and I opt for breakfast and the Country Fried Steak and Eggs.








After eating lunch we do a little shopping in the Country Store area.


The gals buy clothes.





I buy food.  hehe


Then we take the 20 mile drive to Konditorei Austrian Pastry in Davis.
