Pink Magnolia

Blythe Beck is back. Now with her own restaurant in Oak Cliff, the Naughty Chef has taken over a closed seafood restaurant and turned it into a glitzy nod to Southern comfort food. Expect chicken fried steak, bacon-wrapped meatloaf, hush puppies, mac and cheese and other favorites in a sleek dining room. If you’ve come to see Beck, consider nabbing a seat at the chef’s bar where you’ll be just inches from the action as she presides over plates destined for the dining room. A small patio adds outdoor seating and two porch swings add whimsy to this modern take on southern charm.
