I don't know exactly how many carbs were in the serving, but it's a proven keto safe dessert! Of course, it's not all about the pudding. The Culinary Room is so cute we had to look around some, and we sat on their single indoor bench to eat some of our treat.

We purchased the "tiny" sized banana pudding to share (2 of us) and I'm going to tell you I was orbited into banana pudding space! It was intoxicatingly delicious. A gourmet grocery store that not only offers delectable sweets such as ice cream, banana pudding, and candy treats but they also carry grab & go snacks and meals.

I asked the man at the front if this is family owned and he said that he ran this place with his wife.. it's just them! When I drove up I saw two cars waiting.. it does take a little time to get your food.. please known it is because it is just them fixing everything one by one. You can tell when you receive your goodies that they really put a lot of effort into everything they give you. And you can definitely tell! I ordered the dorilocos and the Jumex preparada. Holy Chamoy!!! AMAZING! Dorilocos has cabbage, cucumber, chile, tamarindo, Jamaica, and of course the doritos! (I'm missing something) I didn't want it to end..Delicioso! The Jumex had strawberries, apples, jamaica, mango, cantaloupe with Chamoy and tamarindo.. your choice of Jumex. The owner even gave me a taste of the strawberries and cream desert they had! It was also AMAZING! Please don't forget about these hidden gems as you're passing through. Many times they are the best! Spread the word!

My husband and I originally ordered 2 of the plain churros to share, but we ended up getting two extra orders of this after our first order because they were that good. I also tried a few drinks that my friends ordered from here and were also pleasantly surprised by them! This is a small food truck with only one person working in it, so be patient but the churros are definitely worth the wait. Service was friendly! There are several picnic benches where you can sit and enjoy your treat (be careful about all the bugs though, I got a bunch of bites from sitting here).

I wish I could bake nearly as well to get that perfect crust that these teenagers were producing every time. Each one of them could be a meal on its own. I sampled each and could have made any into a lunch. I'm hoping that I get a few left over meals out of this! New England Clam Chowder was good! I don't see Clam Chowder often in Texas, but if you're from Maine and want to go back home for a good meal - save the air fare! Irish Beef Stew was a hit with everyone who sampled this. Very savory. It was a great beef stew. Makes me regret every microwave stew I ever had growing up in the '70's. Butter chicken was another hit. This is just like any Butter Chicken you would have in a real Indian restaurant but with a nice tasty pie crust. It was unique to have this without naan. It's hard to believe the best Indian food in Hays County is at the Wimberley Market Days. The Korma chicken was just like my mother from India used to make! Ok, she was from North Carolina, but if she were raised in India and had a food pushing mother - this would be her recipe. It was my favorite of this trip.

I tried a few flavors, including one of the cobblers, which was also more of a mousse. I would be more forgiving if I actually enjoyed the mousse flavors, but everything was overly sweet and artificial tasting. The employee who helped us was super nice and the interior is cutely decorated. There are even games to play.

The fast options were slim and not appealing. Thank goodness we found this great spot downtown. The service is without question some of the best I have had in a long time. I explained what we needed and they went above and beyond to help us. We ordered a turkey sandwich, and they delivered! This is not just a couple slices of meat on some bread!! This is a SANDWICH!! It was big enough that our racer was full and ready to go but not too big he couldn't shove it in his mouth in record time. At the time of this review I am planning on going back in the morning to get 2 more sandwiches and deliver them in Cuero, which is the next fueling stop! I like the look, feel, and food and if yall are passing through stop and enjoy Mom's Front Porch! Next time I'm grabbing some ice cream!

There is no menu in the restaurant, they describe themselves as a "walking talking menu". You have the options of white or wheat bread, a variety of meats, and a few selection of toppings.

I will probably be back tomorrow for lunch, and recommend this spot to anyone passing through Luling.

Me and one of my besties have had Michelle make 2 cakes for us for our dear friend Nakia (yes, THAT Nakia) for his annual birthday bash at The Saxon Pub, which was on 02/22/13 this year. Last year, the 1st time we used Michelle, we gave her an idea we had and she just ran with it - she ended up making a beautiful white cake with strawberry filling that had the 1st 6 music notes to Happy Birthday to You across the top with a little 3-D gum paste figure of Nakia singing into a microphone. I posted pictures of the 1st cake he got from me and my bestie Susan that he was so totally blown away with. (He still has the gum paste likeness in his freezer.) This year I sent her a picture of his new fan-financed CD, Drowning In The Crimson Tide, and had asked her to incorporate the CD cover onto the cake. She kept me abreast of what she was doing and when she delivered the cake at The Saxon Pub, it was nothing short of AMAZING!!! She made a cake with a bottom ring on top of a mirror with a "crimson tide" going around the sides with a top tier that she painted to look like Nakia's CD cover. And to top it all off, the top tier of the cake rotated! she totally outdid herself with this over-the-top cake and Nakia really LOVED it. I told her that she can expect an order for a cake for his birthday every year from now on. I have also received birthday cakes made by Michelle for my last 3 birthdays - the 1st one was of a 2-D white baby tiger, the 2nd one was of Hello Kitty's head and this last one was of a red, white and blue Japanese dragon in honor of my Ameerican and Japanese heritage. Even the eyes were of my eye color (hazel) and the detail was totally outstanding! I have had nothing but wonderful cakes made by Michelle. Like Emily J said, she WILL work with you and it does not matter when the event is, she will accommodate you the best she can. I have 2 more cake orders that she will be filling for me - I can't wait to see what these Lavish Cakes & Catering creations will look like. :-)

Everyone was very impressed with the cake - all our guests loved the way it looked and the way it tasted. It is such a relief to have a bakery we can use for quality, attractive cakes at a very reasonable price. For our wedding, we wanted things very simple and that is again what we wanted for our baby shower. Lavish Cakes honored our wishes without any attempt to talk us into a 6-tier fondant covered monstrosity. Of course if that is what you want, I am sure they could make a gorgeous cake for you! We have found that a lot of bakeries don't want to work with folks who want simple, good cakes but that is not the case with Lavish Cakes & Catering. They are professional and high-quality.
