Wedged in the Adolphus Hotel, City Hall Bistro fills a distinct modern style that pairs against the historic design of the surrounding space. Windows allow light to pour in against white subway tile and warm caramel, leather seats. It is an excellent place to be for a summer brunch —...

Music is frustrating. Some artists toil decades before gaining recognition (if they do at all) while others churn out hit tracks like a sweatshop producing cheap toys. The latter group has cracked the formula: they know what people want to hear, and they ride the radio waves to the bank...
A flash drought is creating perfect wildfire conditions in Texas
Corpus Christi has Selena, Houston has Beyoncé, Dallas has Post Malone and El Paso has Khalid. And Khalid has El Paso, as he was recently presented with the key to the city. While Khalid is still fairly new to the pop music landscape, he's already garnered himself a large following...
The big, macro takeaway from Dallas' long-awaited police staffing study was pretty clear, if you read the report itself, decided to bore yourself with the City Council's briefing on the subject or read any of the media coverage last week: The Dallas Police Department can't hire its way out of...
I love Manhattan Project Beer. I keep a stash of their impeccably made, ultra-drinkable pilsner in my fridge. I chat about the beer business with one of its founders. Every few weeks, my girlfriend and I stand in front of the coolers at Central Market, awed by all the choices,...

Just as quickly as it came onto the scene in January, the 86th Texas Legislature faded into the background Monday night, closing up shop for the next two years. With Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's tweeted promise that he would not call a special session, Texans can rest easy knowing that...
Getting the vibe of brunch right is half the battle to draw the crowds. Having the best waffles and bloody mary drinks is all for naught if guests don’t feel as if all the brunch stereotypes aren’t met. Diners want to feel like they're having brunch — a cutesy, relaxed...
Dallas’ queen of dessert is back. When Maggie Huff retires from serving sweets in North Texas, we’ll have to figure out where to put the statue. The year in which she wasn’t regularly baking and pastry-making — between FT33’s closure in summer 2018 and Homewood’s opening this spring — was a sort of Dark...
This past Saturday, contemporary art gallery Ro2 Art hosted a reception for artists Jeanne C. Neal and Kai Peter Martin. The gallery, which was founded nine years ago by Susan Roth Romans and son Jordan Roth, has been at its present Cedars neighborhood corner location for the last three years, where...
The Dallas Morning News and NBC5 won a three-year campaign Monday for the release of Dallas Police body camera footage showing the last minutes of 32-year-old Anthony Timpa's life. The video shows the events of the detainment and death of the unarmed man on Aug. 10, 2016. According to the...
The script, if you've been around cop trials in Dallas or anywhere else over the last several years, is easy to follow. Derick Wiley, the former Mesquite Police Department officer on trial for aggravated assault by a public servant, shot Lyndo Jones twice in the back as Jones ran away...

Dallas Comedy House is only a few weeks away from reopening its doors. The Deep Ellum comedy theater is opening its third — and ideally final — location on Aug. 16, at 3036 Elm St. And it will be bigger and better than ever. If the old rule of comedy...
There's a chance, somewhere between a small- and a medium-sized one, that Tuesday ends up being one of the defining days of the Cowboys' 2019 season. According to reports from the Cowboys beat reporters at ESPN and The Dallas Morning News, star running back Ezekiel Elliott is meeting with NFL...
The Dallas area has an abundance of Korean barbecue restaurants. What sets K’s House apart is its location, 10 miles southeast of any of the others, just across a bridge from downtown. Located in a prime new corner of the Trinity Groves development, K’s House gives residents of the city...
Following less than two hours of deliberation Wednesday afternoon, a Dallas County jury sentenced former Dallas Police Department officer Amber Guyger to 10 years in prison for the murder of Botham Jean. Guyger killed Jean, a 26-year-old accountant, after she entered his apartment in the Cedars, believing it was her...
Many artists complain about how little coverage they receive from local press. Musicians work in a saturated, competitive market, so any means available to get more attention for their work is highly sought after ... unless the artist is rapper Bobby Sessions. This April while on tour in Chicago, Sessions...
It’s easy to forget what Dallas lacks until you try a good version of it. At least, that’s what a recent trip to Happy Eats reminded us. The unassuming storefront with a cheesy — or straightforward — name has a dense four-page menu, but what you can really focus on...

Dallas Observer Music Awards season is upon us yet again, a time when we reflect on the achievements made by local artists, promoters, DJs, radio hosts, producers, etc. We truly have something special with the music scene here in DFW, and while we certainly take pride in the artistic community,...
When Flogging Molly arrives in Irving to play the Toyota Music Factory Aug. 13, fans of the long-running band will be treated to the group’s trademark mix of Celtic-inspired arrangements of punk-infused rock. They’ll also be greeted by an artist more at peace, more centered, and just all around happier,...
There are fat bombs for those on keto diets, undressed salads for those scrupulously counting calories and bison bars for some who swear by paleo. For macro-counters and protein junkies, there’s now something other than a steak or a smoothie: Proletas. Greg Garcia isn’t going around to local gyms and...
The $11.5 billion public education bill passed by the Texas House and Senate last week is proof that Texans are getting smarter, especially those who thought they were already smart, like education reformers. Intently focused for the last two decades on clearing the sludge out of the state’s public school...
