The Seedling Truck

By Ginny, on February 22nd, 2012

Open from 11:00am – 3:00pm, Sunday’s HOPE Market has hours that are more conducive to those folks who embrace all Austin has to offer until the wee morning hours. Though smaller in quantity than Downtown’s SFC Saturday Market, HOPE has plenty of quality vendors, highlighted here. One of the newer additions to the HOPE Market is The Seedling Truck. The Seedling Truck is a byproduct of the amazing Royal Fig Catering and offerings reflect the Royal Fig’s trademark rustic farm fare. With options like polenta cake topped with poached eggs and kale pesto, bacon cinnamon buns, and fried egg steak sandwiches, The Seedling Truck might be the best budget brunch in town. On a recent weekend excursion I started my day with a warm bowl of steel cut oatmeal topped with brown sugar and pears. It was simply delicious. The sweet sugar combined with poached pears made for a very nice topping. The oatmeal was comforting and just the right texture. The oatmeal was simple and filling. When paired with a cup of Third Coast Coffee, it was a perfect way to wake up on a Sunday.
