16 Reviews I have been to Deep Ellum a couple of times. The first time was to see a band...Lifehouse, I believe. And the second time was to eat at the Angry Dog (which you can see in my restaurant tips). Both times I felt it was very low key. While I was in college it was the "place to be" but I believe...
20 Reviews You can get to and from the Dallas/Ft Worth airport quite cheap, but it takes a few steps. (1) Take a shuttle bus to the South Remote Parking lot. Buses from terminals and the CentrePort/DFW Airport TRE Station meet there. Don't worry; the buses wait for each other. (2) Take the shuttle bus to the...

3 Reviews Although you can probably leave out your snow boots, I would suggest being prepared for almost any other kind of weather (especially in spring)! You can never tell what the weather is going to be like. One day it is a hot, dry, 95 degrees, and the next day is 70 and raining. I would definitely...

Try Turtle Creek Dr and Cedar Springs to see new condominium buildings with...

6 Reviews The American Airlines Arena is the site of many events, but it was the Dallas Mavericks game that drew us there over Christmas.

My heart will always belong to the Big D!
Dude, Tinstar is SUPER GOOD. Their roasted tomato salsa is delish!! I miss it mucho!
Hmmm, Blake, it will take a lot to get me to abandon our local Tex-Mex place called Holy Frijoles...mostly because I know the owner, Mario, who has built it up to three restaurants now...and since I don't care for salsa, oh, well...
Hey, Rebecca, no TinStar here, and Frisco is rather too far to go for Tex-Mex when there are plenty of places closer...hey, the same is true even of the location in Plano...nope, I've got great stuff just down the street ;-)
