Taco Cabana in Rockwall, Texas: Dallas Restaurant Review
My hubby and I often sneak off to Taco Cabana during the day if we need a quick meal while we’re working on fixing up a property or simply running around doing errands. For lunch today, that’s exactly what we did. We stopped at the Taco Cabana in Rockwall, Texas (Dallas) off I-30 by the lake. It sure looked like a nice location and everything was clean and new. We ordered our usual favorite – Bean and Cheese tacos...
Chipotle Steak Salad Bowl Rocks: Dallas Restaurant Review
I’ve never had a Chipotle restaurant meal that I didn’t love. Their burritos are huge like FreeBirds, their salad bowls are my favorite, burrito bowls look amazing, etc. They have chicken, steak, ground beef, barbacoa and I believe one other type of meat to choose from. I always grab a salad bowl…they’re so filling even though it’s salad. They come with their signature Chipotle-Honey vinaigrette...
Bahama Buck’s in Rockwall, Texas: Dallas Restaurant Review
My hubby and I made it out to Bahama Buck’s last night for a tasty drink after our dinner. We’d never been there before and didn’t know what to expect. For those of you who haven’t been there before, they only serve cold or frozen drinks, ices and some ice cream stuff. Since we ate some fried food for dinner, we decided to get something with less fat and decided on a shaved ice beverage – super sour...
Web Chef Review: Two Guys From Italy Restaurant – Dallas, Texas
We experienced the Italian cuisine from a restaurant in Dallas called Two Guys From Italy. As you know, we are Italian food freaks, and love to try new places out. We loved that their motto is “Our English She’s No Good…But Our Food Speak More Better”…LOL… We had the Lasagna with meat sauce and sauteed mushrooms. I am really picky about my tomato sauce, and this one was A+ in my books…just...
Seafood Shack in Dallas – Restaurant Review
Okay, Kenney just brought me take-out on his way home from a place called “Seafood Shack” in Dallas. He’d never been there before, but decided to give it a chance. Kenney actually brought me home 1/2 dozen fresh oysters on the half shell packed in ice. I have never experienced oysters on the half shell for take-out. They were extremely fresh, not fishy at all, and came with all the fixins, key limes, hot sauce,...

Now, as you all know, I love BBQ and I love burgers! What you may not know is that we play sand volleyball every weekend and sometimes during the week when it’s nice weather here in Dallas – either at Lone Star Volleyball Club or at Yucatan Beach Club in Coppell, Texas – they’re right across the street from each other.

Web Chef Review: The Cheesecake Factory – Dallas, TX
Many of you know, I really don’t like cake much, but bake them because everyone else does and they’re gorgeous works of art too! LOL However, I do love 3 obscure cakes in this world: 1. Angel Food Cake – My mom’s is thee BEST! 2. Dirt Cake – which is really more like an oreo custard pudding. 3. CHEESECAKE – This is one of my greatest weaknesses – oh yeah! So, of course, I had to share with you...

Okay…Delicious, Superb, Tasty, Wow… …All of these words can describe the Philly Cheesesteak my hubby picked up for me this afternoon in Dallas, Texas from Philly Connection.

Okay, so I’ve sang the praises of Baker’s Ribs in Dallas, Texas before as having the best BBQ pulled pork sandwiches I’ve ever had in my life!

The sliced beef brisket is absolutely unbelievable!!! It is so...
Web Chef Review: Central Market – Dallas Preston Royal
While visiting Dallas this time, I finally got the privilege to visit Central Market at Preston & Royal. Central Market is a whole-foods, organic-type grocery store/market. That’s a mouthful, right? Well, it is. Not only does it have the prettiest, cleanest, freshest & healthiest-looking produce I’ve seen in quite some time, it is sooo much more. The store is filled with fantastic & “obscure”, mom...
