The eagle bird has landed! I flew into BIRD Bakery for their soft opening over the weekend and was so pleased. When I heard the San Antonio-based bakery was opening a local spot I was beyond excited. The look of the HP location is unique and different from the San Antonio location, chic and lovely….

Coconut’s Fish Cafe – Plano, TX
I was extended an invitation to dine at Coconut’s Fish Cafe. I was pumped because I love fresh seafood with tropical flavors. CFC is a family-business based out of Hawaii. When you enter you are transported to the islands. It is Hawaiian without being trite or too cutesy. The tables are mini surfboards carved out of…
JennyCakes Bakery – Kensington, MD
A visit to Kensington, MD would not be complete without a stop at JennyCakes Bakery. This place is small but mighty. They carry a great selection of cakes, cupcakes, pies, cookies and bars. I grew up eating Magic Bars as a kid. My stepmom made them often and these are just as good as hers. The…
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…
Jarams Donuts – Dallas, TX
Word on the street is Jarams Donuts has redefined donuts. So camera in hand, I headed over to the the shop. The place is small, bright and clean. They offer a variety of donuts. What I wanted to try was one their famous croissant donuts. Yep, you read that right! A croissant AND a donut…
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…
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…
Dough Pizzeria – Dallas, TX
I have eaten many a pizza on my search for one as good as La Bussola’s in Florence, Italy. Dough Pizzeria’s comes close and the rest of the offerings are pretty darn tasty as well. B is for BURRATA. Burrata is Italian for buttered. Do I have your attention now? Picture a round ball of mozzarella with…
BGR The Burger Joint – Dallas, TX
Recently, I was invited to try BGR The Burger Joint. If a great burger is what you are after this is the place. It is not a one-burger-fits-all joint. There is a burger for every taste. The Burger is prime, dry-aged beef grilled over a flame. It is served on a fresh-baked brioche bun made locally…
Fat Rabbit – Dallas, TX
Fat Rabbit is not your run-of-the-mill bar food. Great patio, great food and great people watching. There is valet parking for a fee. The inside of the restaurant is dark and chic. I don’t know what scent they are pumping through the vents but it smelled wonderful. We started our food adventure with the Picnic Eggs….
Coolhaus Gourmet Ice Cream – Dallas, TX
This is my first review of Coolhaus but not my first visit. I visit Coolhaus EVERY time I go to Klyde Warren Park. Coolhaus’ cookie and ice cream choices are CRAZY. It is like they have a pair of dice with their favorite foods on them. They roll the dice and BOOM! there is the next ice…
HG SPLY Co. – Dallas, TX
A couple of weeks ago I reviewed Remedy. Later, I found out the owners of Remedy also owned HG SPLY Co. Well, if HG SPLY Co. was half as good as Remedy, I had to try it. It did not disappoint. A friend and I ventured out on a drizzly Halloween afternoon for lunch. We had a short…
