Just got back on Sunday from Dallas (again) and had a chance to try a number of restaurants while there. I'm familiar with the cute chain of "pappa" restaurants and have, with my coworkers, hit all of them a few times at this point. They are nice.

However

We hit the 27th floor restaurant at the one Hilton called "SER STEAK + SPIRITS" (the proper character for the E apparently doesn't present properly on here) on Thursday for a fine dining experience. The food was fantastic! We had a number of bottles of good wine and sampled a number of different items off the menu. I had the venison, but also tried the 45-day aged prime ribeye. My choice of appetizer was the Lobster bisque, which was also excellent.

I've become quite fond of Dallas, having been there four times already and predict being there a few more times before the job is done. Those of you who live there, you have a great city

Off-topic, but upon my awakening Sunday to depart, it had begun to storm. Flash flood warnings started appearing on my phone (a new experience for me) but luckily I did not experience any of them. My flight was only delayed an hour, which was also surprising given the adverse weather conditions. The flight back was a bit nerve wracking with some rather epic bouts of turbulence but we got to Pierson safe and sound and in good time.
 
Dallas has more restaurants per capita than New York City. I love eating out when I go there, just makes it hard to pick a place to eat with so many choices.

As for the weather welcome to Texas! lol. The flood warnings were IMO a long time in the making seeing as Texas has been in drought for about 4 years.

SĒR Steak + Spirits

Yup, can't display a macron here. I blame the monoglots.
 
My wife and I had been in Dallas couple times in the mid 80's, we really like various restaurants there. We love seafood and we drove down to Houston and Galveston to enjoy the Gulf Shrimps. Gulf Shrimps is the best, I think.
 
I used to live between Dallas and Fort Worth. I LOVE it there!! Going to be buying a house up there and moving back (hopefully soon).
 
This year has been nothing short of amazing, weather wise. We are finally coming out of the drought. Dallas area has seen some good rain and here in Oklahoma, we're getting a lot of rain. Also a lot of storms and tornadoes, which should be typical for this time of year, but the past 5 years or so, it's been relatively quiet. Only thing I don't like about Dallas, traffic. It's absolutely nut-so!!!!
 
Next time you are in Dallas - PM me and I will take you thru the Arlington GM plant on a personal tour.

And getting worse by the month. In forty years the infrastructure has not been up to the task. Our politicians give away the farm to corporations to move here with no thought whatsoever given to what is necessary to support all these new residents. They provide little money to the schools, almost no money to roads (that's why every new highway is a toll road), and no consideration to proper zoning.

Welcome to the new Wild West!
