Crossroads Diner

Tom Fleming-late of some of the city's fanciest restaurants-decided to ditch the white tablecloth model for a simple café specializing in American diner classics. But simple isn't synonymous with easy: Nearly everything on the menu at Crossroads Diner is made in-house, including the greaseless, golden potato chips that show up with every sandwich order and the phenomenal corned beef that's brine-cured in the kitchen. And what Fleming can't make, he sources from the best producers: The list of suppliers on Crossroads' menu reads like an all-star roster of players in Dallas' local, fresh and seasonal movement. The sticky buns are especially popular.
