You could go to Kroger to pick up a steak for a weekend grilling session, but you’d be missing out on a true butcher shop experience. You won’t get cooking advice from the plastic-wrapped package that informs you little more than the price per pound, and you won’t get meat butchered onsite moments before you’ve […]

Many of the regulars at this Richardson institution come to share a bounteous portion of whole roasted catfish, priced by size and served with rice paper, sauces and herbs for make-them-yourself spring rolls. There are also roasted quail and buttery frog legs on the menu at Saigon Block, which specializes in the kind of banquet […]
Just across the parking lot from Quoc Bao (and a two-minute walk from Pho Bang), Saigon Deli’s emphasis is more on the filling of the sandwiches rather than the bread.

This bar in East Dallas has an old soul. From two experienced barkeeps – original mixologist Gabe Sanchez, previously of Black Swan in Deep Ellum, and Ryan Payne – this is a slinky black dress with an attitude of indifference. Sip a cocktail like the Big Booty Trudy or order a boilermaker from the Churched […]
In a small garden tucked behind Sakhuu Thai in East Dallas, owner Kyla Phomsavanh grows the building blocks for his curries, stir fries and other Thai dishes. Have a seat in the dark-toned dining room and make friends with the staff. They’re as warm and welcoming as a steaming bowl of tom kha soup. If […]
