Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
There's something comfortingly retro about the east-west collision that occurred this month when Chili's opened its first Russian location. When the Iron Curtain fell, our comrades apparently didn't race to learn about margaritas and tortilla chips, which is why the lengthy menu offered at Chili's in Moscow includes this helpful how to make a fajita cheat sheet. It's kind of like a blintz, right?
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
