There have been meals in my life that have caused me to scrunch my brow and question my menu choice. These kind of meals could and have ruined my entire day. However, just the opposite happens when a glorious plate (or bowl) of perfection is placed in front of me for my eating pleasure. The…
It’s been a while since I have eaten somewhere so good that it consumes all my thoughts and creates such a sense of urgency to return immediately. I must say I was thoroughly impressed with Whiskey Cake. From their appetizers to the main dish and especially the Whiskey Cake itself, I couldn’t have orchestrated a…
You know that feeling when you take a bite of something so incredibly delicious that it makes you question all the other food you have eaten in you life… this dish at Benedict’s in Addison, Texas will cause such a situation. FILET MIGNON SLIDERS: Three USDA Choice tenderloin sliders with caramelized onions, creamy horseradish sauce,…
Who doesn’t love pie?? I’ve been hearing great things about a place called Emporium Pies, so naturally I had to check it out. After a fantastic meal at Oddfellows (https://seizethemeal.com/2014/02/07/the-game-changer-2/) my best friend and I walked around the corner to “close the meal” with a slice of pie. Emporium Pies is the cutest little place,…
The Old Monk has been on my list since I moved to Dallas last year. I finally went and was pleasantly surprised. First things first, they have great Bloody Mary’s for a great price ($3 on weekends). I was going back and forth between the breakfast tacos, the Fish and Chips and the Chipotle-Avocado Chicken…
Mexican Sugar definitely lived up to the hype – what a fun restaurant! I have to start with the atmosphere…there is a huge bar, lounge areas fully equip with comfy couches, high tops, and large booths and tables. This place is really good for any occasion…girls night out, first date, family dinner or in my…
Another Dallas gem! This place is unbelievable. You feel like you are in a fish market when you walk, minus the smell. It’s a long restaurant with a chalk wall on one side listing all the specials, drinks and desserts which change twice daily. I was torn between the Mahi-Mahi and salmon, and because the…
I’ve eaten at Dickey’s a few times since moving to Texas. Overall it does the trick to satisfy the BBQ cravings. I wouldn’t say it is the best in the area, but I’m never disappointed. I usually get the brisket sandwich and it is delicious, but on my last trip there I got the Smokehouse…
As I review the menu before arrival as I usually do, I was very much looking forward to this meal. I always get excited when I see Blackened Mahi Mahi with mango and jalapeño salsa. It was a perfect Ohio night, and the atmosphere of Mancy’s BlueWater Grill was great inside and out. (Although I’d…
One of the first facts I learned about the great city of Dallas was that the Kardashians loved eating at Mi Cocina. And if they like it, well, I must try it out. I finally got my chance to eat there and was very happy with the chips and salsa, which is usually how I rate…
