Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Oak in the Design District is no longer offering lunch, which means we need to find more ways to enjoy the fantastic eatery during other times, and those times should be used to explore the amazing cocktails.
I recently visited for a bit of a happy hour and enjoyed the Perfect Pear made with our hometown hero, Zephyr Gin.
This delightful little cocktail is simple and really lets the ingredients sing. With a base of Zephyr Black Gin, their take on a London Dry Gin with botanicals, such as elderflower, pairs beautifully with pear. Add a little lemon, and that's all you need in this delightful little cocktail. Because sometimes, simplicity is best.
Perfect Pear ($12): Zephyr Black Gin, port pear, lemon
Oak, 1628 Oak Lawn Ave., Suite 110 (Design District)
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.
