Jane and John heard of a new restaurant. Imagine this. They are eating at Red Hot and Blue. The waiter recommends Nazca Kitchen, another restaurant in the same shopping center. He even gives them a menu from Nazca Kitchen to take home. Wierd. (Fact is, the Red Hot and Blue owners also own the Nazca […]
We had it planned. This month’s D Magazine listed Taco Republic as one of the 20 top taquerias in Dallas. Be still my heart. Taco Republic is on the service road just north of Spring Valley Road on North Central Expressway. Not far from my house. I was totally shocked at this listing, because […]
Red Hot and Blue (http://www.rhnb.com) – Not the most romantic restaurant to visit for a Valentine’s date, but we liked it. As Ever-Lovin’ pointed out – “Red Hot does sound like love to me.” (Whatever floats his boat.) And we did have a coupon. This is Memphis style barbecue, with blues and jazz memorabilia throughout the […]
Do you remember the Mario and Alberto restaurant at 635 and Preston? It was a nice family Mexican restaurant that had been at that location for many years. Recently the construction on 635, caused their business to tank. (Do you dare to travel 635 these days? I for one do not). So good news for […]
Dear friend Marsh told me about Sissy’s Southern Kitchen and Bar. She even sent me a review, and the comments were glowing. I could not wait to go. Friends Minetta and Carolyn agreed to have lunch with me for “research purposes” at Sissy’s Southern Kitchen at 2929 Henderson. Sissy’s Southern Kitchen and Bar is owned […]

Number One Son forwarded an email to me from The Observer. The link was to an article by Katharine Shilcutt listing “30 Essential Texas Restaurants to Visit Before You Die“. A Bucket List of eating establishments in our Lone Star State. Ever-Lovin’ and I looked at the list and discovered we had visited several of the […]
This post is in honor of my friend Betty. She loves the Paris Coffee Shop in Fort Worth. Specifically she thinks they make “the best” chocolate meringue pie she has ever eaten. To her, their chocolate pie is a reason to plan a trip to Fort Worth. Paris Coffee Shop is the type of restaurant […]
A seaside style fish shack near downtown Plano. Hard to imagine, but there it is on 15th Street just east of Central Expressway (75), and it is appropriately called Fish Shack. The little blue shack – which I am sure was once a fast food establishment – serves good seafood at reasonable prices. Dear friends […]
House Cafe is one of my favorite places of all time to eat breakfast. I realized something the other morning – I haven’t blogged about House Cafe. I felt badly. How could I neglect House Cafe? Well, I intend to change that right now. House Cafe deserves due recognition. This is not a […]
