You'll find plenty more to entertain you nearby. The resort is the
centerpiece of a 1,700-acre development that includes Six Flags Fiesta
Texas theme park.
Dine in Style
Celebrate the end of a busy day with a cozy
dinner at the signature restaurant, Francesca's at Sunset. It's a
splurge--but worth it. The menu is a medley of zesty Southwestern dishes
inspired by celebrity chef Mark Miller and San Antonio chef Ernie
Estrada. We loved the apple wood-smoked quail filled with chorizo and
pear ($12) and chipotle butter-poached whole Maine lobster ($39).
Sunday on the River
Before you hit the trail for home,
head downtown for breakfast and a boat ride on the River Walk. Order the
Southern Sweet Cream Waffle ($5.75) that'll melt in your mouth at The
Guenther House. This restaurant at Pioneer Flour Mills in the King
William historic district serves breakfast until it closes at 3 p.m., so
you don't have to hurry. Visit www.guentherhouse.com or 1-800-235-8186. Follow
your meal with a tour on the river with Rio San Antonio Cruises. Tickets
cost $6.50; www.riosanantonio.com or 1-800-417-4139. Have a lovely
weekend.
