Whistle Britches: Dallas’ Best Fried Chicken
I am Always on the Hunt for Dallas' Best Fried Chicken Ya'll. Fried Chicken. Fried chicken is the world's most perfect food. It's a pain in the ass to get it right though. I've made it at home. It is incredible, and I will never make it again (maybe). The time, the...
Lunch at Sachet
A Year In and Sachet is Still Going Strong A year ago, I was beside myself with excitement. The chef/proprietors of Gemma announced that they were opening a new concept. Gemma is quite possibly my favorite restaurant in Dallas; which is saying a lot in a city full of...
