GOF – Farmers Fishers Bakers – Washington, DC

I just returned from DC and Maryland for spring break. It was an amazing trip. I saw some stunning sights and ate some crazy good food. I had dinner at Farmers Fishers Bakers. If you are in the area I would recommend booking a reservation and having a bite. Check out the review at Girls on Food. Be on…

Kenny’s Wood Fired Grill – Addison, TX

Celebrated my mother’s birthday at Kenny’s. I recommend you call for reservations. They book about 3 weeks out for a Friday or Saturday night. We had a reservation and were seated immediately. Our server was jovial and attentive. After our drink orders were taken, we were offered warm popovers with butter. They were cooked to…

Potbelly Sandwich Shop – Addison, TX

I recently stopped in Potbelly Sandwich Shop to try a couple of new items. I tried their new soup – Sriracha Black Bean. It is rare that I eat a soup that doesn’t need a little salt or pepper. This was not the case with the sriracha black bean soup. It needed NOTHING. This soup…

Pecan Lodge – Dallas, TX

I was craving some BBQ, so on a whim I phoned my mother and asked her to join me for a late lunch at Pecan Lodge. Being a foodie herself, my mother jumped on the web to read about PL. As soon as she got in the car she told me that I needed a back-up…

Velvet Taco – Dallas, TX

The taco trek continues. A couple of Saturdays ago my friends and I decided to eat tacos for every meal. Yep, every meal. We started with breakfast tacos at La Popular Tamale House (see post here.) Then, we headed to Velvet Taco on N. Henderson Avenue. The line was out the door but moved along…

La Popular Tamale House – Dallas, TX

Three girls, one goal: eat tacos for every meal. Goal met. We started our taco trek at The Market at Dallas Farmers Market. If you haven’t been to The Market you need to give it a try. It is a ginormous indoor food hall including restaurants, food vendors and shopping. We bellied up to La Popular…

Omni Dallas Hotel – Dallas, TX

The Omni Dallas has been on my bucket list for awhile. So to say I was excited for my weekend staycation was an understatement. I was in room 1733 on the 17 floor. The views from the floor-to-ceilings windows of downtown were quite impressive, especially as the sun went down. The room was modern and comfortable….

Texas Spice – Dallas, TX

I love a staycation. L-O-V-E. I recently staycayed at The Omni Dallas Hotel. Check out the hotel review here. For breakfast I went downstairs to Texas Spice. The decor is really refreshing. I would call it repurposed Texana. Upscale rustic. I felt very welcomed and comfy. There is a great patio with plenty of seating…

Spindrift Inn – Monterey, CA

My daughter, Kate, graduated high school in June.  For her graduation my mother and I took her to Monterey, Carmel and San Francisco.  We had an amazing trip and enjoyed every second of it. We flew into San Jose, rented a car and drove to Monterey.  We stayed at the Spindrift Inn on Cannery Row….
