"The hospitality group is beginning to transform a historic Austin hotel where President Lyndon B. Johnson held his presidential reelection watch party in 1964; Bloomfield will lead the restaurants there as part of the group's projects." - Melissa McCart
"A historic Austin hotel that the hospitality group announced it would take over, including its two existing dining rooms — currently a bar that shares the hotel’s name and the 1886 Cafe & Bakery — and which is owned by Hyatt Hotels Corporation; the acquisition is part of the company’s expansion of its dining and hospitality footprint in Texas." - Melissa McCart
"The iconic downtown hotel where Maitreyi Ramakrishnan posed for Instagram with a nod to Austinite Matthew McConaughey, using his famous line, "Alright, alright, alright," accompanied by a cowboy emoji — a playful cultural reference connecting her visit to local celebrity lore." - Courtney E. Smith
"Of course, the historic Austin hotel bar whips up a mean very dirty gin martini. Sit at the bar for maximum enjoyment." - Nadia Chaudhury
"The historic downtown hotel is hosting Thanksgiving brunch for the holiday on its mezzanine. Expect carving stations with whole roasted turkey and honey-glazed ham; lots of vegetables; seafood like gumbo and scallops; sides like double-butter whipped potatoes; and desserts like pies and cakes. It’s $149 for adults, $49 for kids between the ages of five and 10, and free for children five years old and younger. Hours are from noon to 3 p.m. Reservations should be booked online; there are indoor dine-in services." - Nadia Chaudhury
