Austin Restaurant Olamaie Opens New Cafe at Butler Park Pitch & Putt | Eater Austin

"I learned that a public golf course near Auditorium Shores in the Bouldin Creek neighborhood is debuting a new clubhouse: Butler Pitch & Putt's clubhouse at 201 Lee Barton Drive opens Friday, April 9, and features a menu curated by Olamaie chef and two-time James Beard Award finalist Michael Fojtasek. The new menu draws heavily from Olamaie’s casual biscuit shop Little Ola’s—offering breakfast sandwiches, egg salad, fried chicken, chicken salad, and pimento cheese—alongside beef and vegetarian hot dogs, snacks like candy bars and chips, and desserts such as cookies and rotating seasonal ice cream sandwiches from pastry chef Jules Stoddart. The park will now sell beer, spiked seltzer, and wine (so it will no longer be BYOB), and the clubhouse includes public beer garden space; Butler and its clubhouse are open 8 a.m. to 8 p.m., and the course is walk-ins only. Butler had been run by the Kinser family for over 70 years until a 2019 paperwork issue; Pecan Grove Partners, including Bart Knaggs of New Waterloo, won the bid, and Knaggs and Fojtasek are now collaborating on the golf-course restaurant." - Erin Russell
