We were among only a few restaurants in town cooking meats at temperatures less than 300 degrees to avoid carcinogens, but in the end not enough people really cared," Wynne said in a statement. "Lesson learned the hard way."
I'd love to see their business plan, pitch, and investors. People with funny money.Corps_Ag12 said:GarlandAg2012 said:Ag CPA said:

Capitol Pub on Henderson is closing
They will sell it other establishments or use them at other locations. Go to Dubliner today and ask the owners.bagger05 said:walton91 said:

Generic question: what happens to all the furnishings when a place like that closes? I'm trying to get in touch with a manager/owner about buying one of the tables outside. It's where my fiance and I met and later got engaged. Figure if they're just going to auction it or something they might be just as happy to sell it to me.

Pretty much this... since it is an amicable closing (i.e.not getting locked out for lack of paying rent) they should have the option to vacate and take all non-affixed FF&E. What they choose to do with it from there is on them, but I'd be surprised if much, if any, of the furniture is re-used in their existing or future establishments.Kanyes psychiatrist said:They will sell it other establishments or use them at other locations.

Yes. Call during the day several times. They are good people and would be willing to discuss.bagger05 said:
Dubliner is the same owners, right? Actually going to be right across the street from there tonight.

Full Circle Tavern in Lakewood, in the old Gingerman spot, has closed.

I refer to it as the old Angelo's location. The Gingerman was there for such a brief time, I forget about it.

The Loon, which has been hanging around McKinney Avenue for more than 25 years, will move from its current address at 3403 McKinney Ave. to a larger space.
Fortunately, the new space is hardly a block away: It'll open in a building at 3028 N. Hall St., just behind Breadwinners, that was most recently occupied by Mimi's Pizza.
Food was average at best. Build out was very nice and smartly done but they went cheap on the product quality of food.Ol Jock 99 said:
Apparently HQ Prime (the old Red Hot and Blue) is closing. They poured a lot of money into revamping it too. I've been to several events in the beer garden and thought it was nice, but it never made it to the lunch/dinner rotation...
Agree. I mainly had party trays there, which is low bar stuff, but did have BBQ one time and it was Spring Creek level at Lockhart prices. Beer selection was on point though.Quote:

Seems like you have a healthy disdain for food in Dallas. I think we're pretty solid and getting better, and the mainstream food press seems to agree with me. https://www.bonappetit.com/story/dallas-texas-city-of-the-year-2019Kanyes psychiatrist said:Food was average at best.

That's a strange center. A lot of money and new concepts but most are mediocre which sadly is the food scene in Dallas.
There are plenty of great spots in Dallas however, I found some of the most hyped places are all smoke and mirror. Plus the short cuts of using frozen items in order to save on labor. I've spent a good portion of my career in the F&B scene so I've seen it first hand. Prior to that I was in Chicago and nyc so I've seen a true food city close up from the kitchens. A lot of sizzle here. I don't want to be pretentious, I've seen the vast differences straight from the kitchens and dining roomsGarlandAg2012 said:Seems like you have a healthy disdain for food in Dallas.

They envision BarNone as a bar first with friendly service, signature drinks, beer, wine, and sports to watch.
But there will be food: all-American fare, including a burger made with meat ground in-house, plus other sandwiches and family favorites that include clams Casino, wings, Todd's Sunday gravy, and Manhattan clam chowder.
Local diners may recognize Todd as a career restaurateur with 31 years food and beverage experience, including his role as managing partner of Angry Dog for 20 years. He is also the former co-founder, president, and CEO of Dallas Grilled Cheese Company.
In looking at pics from Alfonso's, I'm not seeing something that looks like Detroit-style pizza. Is there some place in Dallas to get Detroit-style pizza? It's a dragon I've been chasing for yearsKanyes psychiatrist said:
Haven't been to district 9. Alphonso's is very good, Detroit style pizza is damn good. El Vecino is really good too. Good food neighborhood along with the spots on Peavy.
