“One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.” – Luciano Pavarotti
Can I please just eat my way across DFW? Trying out new menus and venues is a treat. Join me on my epicurious journey across North Texas’ restaurants, coffee shops, eateries, and cafes.
I dare you to spot me out in the wild without a cup of coffee in my hand (unless it's after 5 and then you know, we switch to wine). Oh how I luuuuv a great cup of coffee. It's my eternal wish to be able to replicate that coffee house taste at home -- and trust me,...
The Yard Milkshake Bar is OPEN in The Colony, Texas and you need to go get you one because it’s all that. Trust me. If extreme desserts are your thing, you need to go get in line because The Yard Milkshake Bar is a culinary experience. And when I say "get in line," I...
Who loves you unconditionally, day in and day out? Your fur family! You hang the moon for them, and I’ll bet you love them to that same moon and back. Here’s an idea – skip the long lines and reservations this Valentine’s Day and take your one and only on a doggie...

In partnership with Razzoo's Cajun Cafe! All opinions are my own. Y’all. I haven’t lived in Louisiana since 1996, but even my short 5 years there gave me a love for Cajun food. It doesn’t hurt that I married a Louisiana guy and get to go back and visit on the regular....
One of the things I miss most about living in Addison is festival season. There's no better time in Texas than Spring and the Taste of Addison is the perfect way to waste -- or waist -- away a gorgeous afternoon. Great food, plenty of adult beverages, awesome music...
I felt like such a jerk. I mean, I bought the Hurts Donuts shirt as a fast pass to the front for opening day... but apparently not everyone was aware of that incredible time-saving promotion. So the shivering people in line which was wrapped outside the building were...
We've been in such a movie rut. It seems like just aligning our schedules for family movie night takes so much effort that we end up just climbing the stairs to our movie room and settling for movies that are many months old. And half the time, I lose interest just...
Houlihan's invited me to dinner so that I could taste the featured items on their limited time menu and then tell you about it. All opinions are my own.A few months ago, the hubs and I decided to get healthier. We were both carrying a little extra middle-age around...
The Alizé Las Vegas Restaurant on the top floor of the Palms Resort & Casino, just off the Las Vegas strip is an absolute gem. Because the Palms is in what they call, “Las Vegas West,” the view of “Las Vegas East” (the hotels you typically think of on the strip)...
Having married a Southerner, I've grown accustomed to the culinary delights that it brings along with it. Sadly Dallas, you have only had flickers of fantastic Southern cuisine -- until now.Ida Claire is so good, you'll leave saying, "Well, I declare, that WAS a great...
Hey, I found this new kid-friendly restaurant in Dallas. They make and hand-stretch their pizza dough to make thin and crispy pizza crust everyday in-house. I really like their tangy BBQ chicken pizza with peppers, crispy onions on top and more BBQ drizzle,but my...
I am super jazzed about the new Corner Bakery flatbreads launching nationwide on June 30th. (They have sneakily been available in Dallas as a test market since March.)Have you heard about them yet? The Cupcake and I were lucky enough to have a sneak peak of what’s...
Could you be considered somewhat of a pizza snob? Do your friends and family hate going for pizza with you because you are too "pie"ous for their simple tastes? Since I happen to be a "pie"teous pizza lover, I jumped at the media night opportunity to try Pie Five's...
I’m lucky to live in a state that’s filled with a million miles of places to go – in fact, I barely need to leave North Texas to find the fun! Here are some of my favorite places to share with my family.
