commerce street. I'm not sure where that is in dallas exactly just there are a lot of bars there. Also an after hours underground mexican restaurant/bar if you can find out the password. That's where idle rich pub comes in, you're looking for a mexican guy named harold. Just tell him you've got some friends in fayetteville that recommended you come down there for a fun time and you'll be taken care of.

Is like a high school reunion for me every time I go there. Still fun though. Anything off McKinney is.

As far as restaurants go... Mexican food is probably your best bet, since you probably don't get any good Tex Mex wherever else you've been. Mi Cocina is good. If you don't want Mexican I would say Pappadeaux's is good. I'm a little bit lost for Dallas specific places, but anything off of Belt Line is good if you're up near Addison. Chamberlain's Steak House is good. His daughter may or may not have lost her virginity to my friend on my couch. Just a rumor.

I liked the trophy room. All the damn lighting about gave me a seizure but it's a fun time.

Meh. Fajitas are fajitas. You can't really go wrong.

Fogo de Chao if you want Brazilian.




If you want to go cougar hunting, venture north to Plano and hit up the Shops at Legacy. Bring your crossbow.


Other fun things to do during the day... Dallas World Aquarium and JFK museum.

What are you wanting and how far north?

If you want to venture out northwest just a bit check out LINK in Lewisville for more of a relaxed atmosphere.

Plano... I recommend you stay near 75 or the Tollway for ease. Tollway go to Shops at Legacy (i'm not a fan, though). 75-there are a ton of places. Bone Daddy's, Twin Peaks, BJ's (good food and beer) Pappasito's, Papadeaux's...

North Dallas-Gordon B's off of 75 is one of my favorites.

Allen/Plano You have Waters Creek. There are a lot of places there. Crue (wine bar) Cristina's, Blue Fish are a few, but there are pretty good spots there and you can walk to them all.

If you like burgers or root beer. The Twisted Root Burger Company is really good. I don't know where the one is Dallas is, but there's on in Richardson that's really easy to get to.
