One of the most famous woman-owned restaurants in Texas got a visit from one of the most famous women in the world on International Women’s Day, Friday. And there was a prince there, as well.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle, the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, stopped into la Barbecue on East Cesar Chavez Street in East Austin on their way out of town.

The couple greeted owner Ali Clem with big hugs when they stepped from their vehicle before surprising customers and taking photos on the patio around 3 p.m.

Clem said the famous couple, who expressed a sincere appreciation for good food, talked with her about the menu and business she opened with her late wife, LeAnn Mueller in 2012, before taking a tour of the smokers.

Prince Harry and Meghan Markle visited La Barbecue in Austin and posed for a photo with owner Ali Clem.

“We had a couple laughs and then talked about where our brisket came from and a little about the cooking process,” Clem told the American-Statesman. “We also talked about how competitive the barbecue world was specifically in Austin and a little about the barbecue community here in Austin and Texas.”
