Dallas Theater Center

Once based in the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Kalita Humphreys Theater, in 2009 the DTC moved to newer, fancier digs at the Wyly Theatre at the AT&T PAC. With a repertoire that dates way back to the 1950s, they now perform a half dozen or so different plays a season, ranging from the classics (Shakespeare and […]

Grab a karaoke room or a booth in the bar, which have big, dark privacy shields covered in soju advertisements. If the ads inspire […]

Ddong Ggo

Ddong Ggo is in the hands of new ownership, but we’re happy to report the infectious fun and shockingly good food that drew us in to this Korean street-style bar are still very much on display. Put another way: Can you imagine a better night out than a Korean bar with blaring pop music, an […]
