After several weeks of unrelenting rainstorms with unforgiving humidity, the clouds finally parted ways for one of the most highly anticipated pop-ups this summer in Dallas.

On a recent cool Wednesday evening, a group of runners gathered outside Westlake Brewery Co. for a self-paced out-and-back down Swiss Avenue. No one is racing here (that’s a lie), just a casual trot between friends (mostly), with (well-deserved) cold beers waiting at the finish line.
The pandemic has had a devastating impact on the restaurant industry. Many restaurants in Dallas ended up not being able to re-open in the post-vax era, including Klyde Warren’s darling, Savor…
