No, not pita. It’s pide. The rounds that come from this kitchen are a little thicker than traditional pita bread, and they don’t open into perfect pockets, but they are no less delicious. They come out by the basketful to be used as utensils for scooping up smooth hummus, savory yogurt and other salads, or […]
There’s no escaping it. When you gaze at the silhouette of the building that houses Pera Wine & Tapas from the parking lot, you’re looking the shell of a decades-old Taco Bueno. This is a house that beans built, though the smell of lard-laden pintos has vanished long ago. Inside, tables draped in white linen […]
Pera Kebab opened in the space formerly occupied by Sharaku, one of Dallas’ favorite izakayas.

Peticolas helped elevate Dallas’ craft beer scene from JV to varsity when it introduced us all to Velvet Hammer over a decade ago; a smooth imperial red ale with a 9% ABV. A soft touch with a big punch and so very yummy. The small locally owned brewery in an industrial building in West Dallas is […]
PDNB relocated to the gallery-friendly Design District from Uptown in 2006, but its focus on fine photography remains the same, featuring works from both local and international artists ranging from the early 20th century to present day. They also offer appraisal services, but be advised: Your baby pictures probably aren’t worth a damn.
