Harvey B’s and the Legend of Char Broiled Burgers

Harvey B’s Rated 4.7 Stars TXMB And here I thought perfect grill lines were just a legend, existing only in television, places that say you can “have it your way,” and intensely filtered Instagram photos. Haven’t you ever wondered if those legends were real, and if there really was such a thing as a real char broiled burger? Harvey B’s is just such a place of legend. Although this legend has only been around a little over four months it’s already drawing quite the interest. Located in East Dallas, Harvey B’s is a tiny joint with something like 5 stools and 4 chairs. There’s not tons of space inside to…

Design and Dine Recap 2015

Design and Dine 2015  A collective of hauntingly beautiful people and fashion forward garments was the essence of last Thursday night’s Design and Dine event. Sprinkled between the pretty, was a mix of good eats and even better booze. Held in Plano’s Classic BMW Building, ticket holders had a chance to view collections from acclaimed designers such as Neobantu and Esé Azénabor. In the midst of the creativity flowing across the stage, guests were able to satiate their palates with savory stuffed goat cheese filled mushrooms and spicy smooth pimento cheese dip, from Taverna Rossa. For those seeking a meatier experience, Rafian Brazilian Steakhouse provided kabobs with thick cuts of…

Cheese Charming at Dallas Grilled Cheese Co.

Dallas Grilled Cheese Co. TXmb Rated 4.8 Stars When was the last time you or your mom made one? Grabbed a couple of spongey soft slices of simplistic white bread, smoothed butter on all four sides, topped them off with 4 slivers of good ole fashioned American Cheese, slapped it all together in a cast iron skillet and started the process of grilling some cheese. For me it’s been ages, probably somewhere around middle school to be exact. You know that time in life you know everything, including the best way to concoct the world’s greatest grilled cheese. To my 13-year-old self I can officially say, ‘You know nothing of…

Making Meals In the Sack

In The Sack Rated 4 Stars TXMB It’s been a long day. Maybe the longest ever, and all you really want to do is kick back some booze, chow down on something tasty and run an unending marathon of newly released shows on Netflix. But, the liquor store is far away and usually crowded. So, begrudgingly you decide to pick up a quick bite at the closest fast food joint, quickly forgoing any dreams of good wine and good grub. Good news, your days of choosing between getting yourself a bottle of bueno vino or going home and slumming it in your sweats have officially ended. Gourmet food, meets booze,…

Yum Yum at Tom Yum Thai

Tom Yum Thai-Rated 3.8 Stars txMB It was time again, and the beckoning of the belly was upon me. For this gastric adventure I decided to go Thai. I’d heard quite a bit about Tom Yum Thai from different people. Hooray, hooray they all say, go and get the lunch buffet. Well, I’ve said once, I’ll say it a trillion times, I am a fan of a good buffet. Endless choices, flat price and plate after plate of comida. Buffets and booze over boys anytime. With that in mind, I hopped in reliable Old Blue, and headed to Tom Yum Thai. It was a Friday, and Friday’s are special at…

The Afrah Appetite

AFRAH-Rated 4.5 Stars TXmb uffet is a longstanding love of mine. Good buffet that is. Few things compare to mounds of food draping across a plate in preparation for consumption. Afrah offers just such a delight. I’d been scoping this place for some time, anxious to try it. After my chow down at the Lebanese Food Festival recently, I thought it was only right to keep the party going at Afrah, which serves Lebanese and Mediterranean cuisine. Hungered tummy and palate pal in tow, we hopped in Old Blue and made the drive to Afrah. Inside the open café styled eatery, sat plenty of patrons chatting amongst themselves while others…

The Shells of Enticement at Good 2 Go Taco

Good 2 Go Taco-Rated 4.8 Stars TXmb When the passionate throws of taco desire consume your stomach, choices must be made. You must ask yourself, what it is you are looking for in said taco, breakfast delight or lunch love. How much am I willing to spend on said taco? And finally, how are we feeling about the salsa factor here, important or nah? Good 2 Go Taco feels hidden. It doesn’t stand out and say, “Look at me Texas, I’m a taco joint.” Rather, this place smiles and teases from a distance without making bold assumptions of itself. I found them on a random hungered morning. Around 8:30am or…

Cheesesteak Trouble that Led to Truck Yard

  Truck Yard- Rated 4.7 Stars TXmb Goodness on a lightly crisp role. Cover it in grilled onions, jalapenos, and a few slices of provolone. And if you really want to feel weak in the knees top that bad boy off with the wiz of cheese. You have the option of making this, a Portobello mushroom or chicken sandwich. But all the foodies and all the greats know that none of those versions are as magnificent as the cheesesteak. (TXMB Cheesesteak Proverb)   Last year my cousin and I took a road trip to NYC. Soon as we hit Philadelphia I began to salivate.  I assumed it didn’t matter where…

India Grill and the Anxious People that Love it

India Grill-Rated 3.8 Stars TXMb Saturday morning, 11:25am. A hungered many stand, sit, laugh and make due with other peoples company. Tennis shoes tapping to the concrete, folded arms and fake laughs are all part of the scene. 11:30 hit. And just like that the tennis shoe tapping, folded arm, fake laugh, car sitting souls made their way inside. India Grill is a place with a following. Having only gone two times, it’s easy to spot those who have made this establishment a common thread in their restaurant routine. And why not? India Grill is of an affectionate sort. Inside the staff is attentive, almost doting. Plus even if you…
