Also we're going to have a pretty solid lunch cart and breakfast tacos on the floor, so you won't have to rush around in the morning or at lunch.

And I have it on good authority that Pok-E-Jo's will give a 10% discount if you wear your WGC badge to eat there...

Texadelphia is also across the street, as well as Q'Doba's which is a big burrito place. A Corner Bakery just opened up by the Noodles & Company.

But if you're willing to drive and want some really tasty food, there's far more unique places to eat at food carts across the city, but definitely some good ones at the North Austin Trailer Yard.

Also find Lucky J's Chicken and Waffles off Burnet.

Awesome sounds like a decent selection for walking distance :)
