Showing 2003 - 2024 of 2983There’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 […]
The Perot Museum, which offers some of the coolest modern architecture around as well as the craziest escalator you’ve ever seen, has attracted international attention since its opening in late 2012.

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.
Piefalootin is a locally owned from-scratch pie house with both classic and innovative flavors. It feels like a hidden gem because it is. If fluffly pies is your love language, then muuuuwah.
