This morning, Dallas food media was abuzz with word of an UberEats promotion with Pecan Lodge that featured all the right buzzwords: barbecue, delivery, drones and a party. Here’s how it was supposed to work: For one day only, today, UberEats would offer a Pecan Lodge brisket sandwich with mac…

One particular style of cuisine easily hits all these marks: Mexican food. Feeling like…
Throughout his formative years when David Fingerman was trying to decide what to do with his life, there was always one constant: cooking. He went to college and hated it, dropping out after one year. Then he decided to pursue photography. But that didn’t last long, either. “The whole time I…
When I moved to London in 2010, everybody warned me about the awfulness of traditional English food. Friends declared pub life would be a drudgery of boiled beef and spotted dick. “The best thing that ever happened to English food,” my father advised, “was McDonald’s.” Alarmed, I spent the first…

Kitchen LTO, the “permanent pop-up” in Trinity Groves that swaps chefs and concepts every few months, closed after brunch on Sunday. Casie Caldwell, the founder of Kitchen LTO, released a statement Sunday on Facebook that eludes to possible future Kitchen LTO “pop-ups,” but otherwise, it’s unclear if there’s anything new…
Earl’s 377 is a pizza oasis, a bright blossom in Argyle’s food desert. When this restaurant opened its doors in May, Argyle’s count of eateries increased by more than 10 percent. With pickings that slim, any restaurant would be a welcome sight. But Earl’s isn’t just any restaurant; it’s slinging…
Whistle Britches is a happy spot. A partly covered patio leads into a bright, sunny dining room accented by bright yellow and rusty orange accents. What used to be a Sonic drive-in and then the now-departed Spork has been transformed into a quirky space with a menu full of oh-so-trendy…

It’s been a heavy week in Dallas, but there have been some heart-warming moments amidst the sadness — particularly in the food and drink community, which has stepped up big-time to feed and raise money for local police. Here’s a rundown of this week’s DFW food news: Not only did…

Through the years, Dallas has heard the name of legendary restauranteur Gene Street time and time again. (Ahem … Black Eyed Pea, Snookie’s, Liberty Burger, Good Eat’s, etc.) Luckily, the restaurant industry runs in the family. Recently opened Street’s Fine Chicken is owned by one of Gene’s sons, run by…
Most of the burgers I eat in Dallas, and many of the ones I love, are cooked on the flat top. The hard sear, the fantastic crust that adorns a patty from a griddle is an attribute that transforms a perfectly good burger to a Ratatouille-level emotional bond. As George Motz…
