Start your day off with a flight of mimosas at the neon-pink brunch spot. Try the Flaming Apple Whiskey Cakes, which come with an age restriction: so much booze in the things you have to be 21 or older to order. Thick and fluffly Lemon Poppy pancakes with a housemade lemon sauce, which is more […]

Since 1999, Abacus has represented the quintessence of creative dining injected with a good dose of common sense. Today, its neutral-beige interior feels like a time capsule from 1999; its menu, an abrupt collision between Texas steakhouse and Japanese sushi bar, is similarly dated. The good news is that the food can still be good, […]
This two-story bistro blends cuisines from around the Mediterranean: Italian, French and Middle Eastern. The casual air and wide-ranging menu make it a popular spot, especially for slurping up some wonderful osso bucco, the exceedingly tender, long-stewed veal shanks that are a house specialty. Quaint and very romantic setting.

Au Troisieme, or AT Bistro, is neighborhood bistro in the heart of University Park (Preston Center). The concept is new American cuisine with a global influence – actually not French.

In sorry-not-sorry news, we’re spilling the beans on hard-to-find Atwater Alley: Go past the door of Henry’s Majestic, toward the alley, then hang a right after the sidewalk ends and look for the door with an upside-down A over a right-side-up A. Once inside, Atwater doesn’t have QR codes or paper for menus, just tell […]
It is a return to elegance – Belle Epoque with a modern twist. A big influence was the graciously scaled libraries of the great houses of Europe. These libraries were often storehouses of not only great literature but also wonderful objects d’art which often served as the background for wonderful floral decorations and the setting […]

Ben’s Cookies – contrary to the name – aren’t actually Ben’s. Rather, the European cookie shop is the brainchild of Helde Rubenstein, who started baking cookies at her Oxford home kitchen in 1983. Today, the Ben’s Cookies logo is universally worshiped, with locations around the U.K., Asia and the Middle East. Dallas’ Snider Plaza location […]
This yoga studio/live music venue has built quite a rep with its booking of both local and national acts in an acoustic setting. The intimate intentions of their concerts work specifically for the artist onstage and promotes interaction. A good alternative to any loud raucous venue.
Bernie’s is tucked away inside Preston Tower down a dim corridor with no signage announcing it’s even there (none that we saw, anyway), but a visit here plays out like a trip back in time. Bernie’s gives speakeasy vibes. The decor is vintage art deco, the atmosphere is classy and the playlist offers the likes […]
Big Al’s offers them big and smoky for the grizzled workingman. The eponymous sandwich comes with two meats wedged into a po-boy bun. The meat combos extend to the dinners. How about a three-meat meal of turkey, chopped beef and ribs? Everything is served cafeteria-line style, but the station hands are at the disposal of […]
