The “Kit’s” Solution

My love of cornbread has now been exercised to the fullest. Kit’s Kornbread Sandwich & Pie Bar took my lunch to a whole other level by offering a BLT sandwich on their jalapeño cornbread. Picture this: bacon, lettuce, tomato, mayo, cheddar cheese on fresh baked cornbread infused with jalapeno’s, accompanied by a fresh broccoli Salad…

The Scarecrow

One of my weaknesses, besides food in general, is ordering the “special”. The taco of the month at Torchy’s Tacos in October was The Scarecrow. The Scarecrow: Pumpkin seed breaded chicken tenders with roasted poblano peppers, then topped with escabeche carrots, queso fresco, cilantro and creamy chipolte ranch – Served on a flour tortilla. I mean,…

Fedora, Fedora

I’ve never felt so much joy before, during and especially after a meal as I did when I went for lunch at Fedora. The atmosphere of Fedora makes you feel like you’ve left the decade and are in for a treat. My meal started with Bruschetta, one of the best I’ve ever tasted. The toasted…

Scratch & Sniff

If you want a health meal stay away, but if you want to experience joy beyond your wildest dreams on every tastebud within your body, go to Chicken Scratch. Just look at this picture… This dish is not for the feeble.  Fried Chicken, Buffalo Sauce, Pickled Celery, Ranch & Blue Cheese Crumbles on a biscuit…please wipe…

Crepe Heaven

The picture does not do this meal justice. I was completely blown away by how delicious this Spinach Crepe tasted and how well the flavors complimented each other. The potatoes were lightly seasoned in rosemary, almost too lightly for my liking, and the toast was homemade and grilled with fresh jelly.  The atmosphere at Cafe…

Ellen: My Long Lost Friend

I’m not sure where Ellen has been all my life, but I’m glad I found her. Ellen’s Southern Kitchen in the West End of Dallas is my new favorite restaurant. I started off with a Cafe Americano (Espresso & Water) and was dealing with an internal battle of which meal to order, breakfast or lunch.…

B.L.T. – Best Lunch in Town

One day I hope to fall as deeply in love with a man as I did with the BLT at All Good Cafe in Deep Ellum. Talk about pure joy! I ordered the sandwich on sourdough bread instead of honey wheat and added avocado. I like to think of myself as a girl who knows…

licked the plate clean…

Another recommendation from a friend brought me to Company Cafe on the Katy Trail in Dallas Texas. Pesto, a sauce of crushed basil leaves, pine nuts, garlic, Parmesan cheese, and olive oil, can turn any day around. And when done correctly, will make you lick the plate!  The mozzarella stuffed chicken breast over basil pesto risotto…

Avocado Bliss.

Just when I thought I’d had it all, I walk into Hacienda on Henderson. A good friend of mine suggested not only this restaurant but the Avocado a la Romana. The description says is all, ” Avocado stuffed with fajita chicken and monterrey jack cheese, battered in bread crumbs and deep fried, served with green…

Baja Fish Taco’s – Enough Said.

When I sit down at a restaurant and open the menu, the first thing I think of is, “Am I going to find the best ______ in the world?” That is a lot of pressure, but I am on the hunt for the best meals in the world. I don’t have a degree in food,…
