From live music to local art to outdoor adventures, Austin offers plenty of reasons to experience its own brand of cool.  For the culinary-inclined, Austin's infatuation with great food is best on display at its annual Food + Wine Festival, where guests can sip and savor their way through Texas' top wine, spirits, and culinary offerings.  It's hard to say what you'll love more — interacting with Texas' most renowned chefs and barbeque pitmasters, or savoring the mouth-watering dishes that made them famous.  Stay at Four Seasons Austin (a short walk to the event).  Here you'll enjoy luxe, spacious suites overlooking Lady Bird Lake, indulgent spa treatments, and miles of colorful lakeside trails to explore on foot or on bike — the perfect environment to work up your appetite.
