Stoneleigh P

A restaurant at a Pharmacy? well not exactly, this legendary restaurant in Dallas is located on an old pharmacy place, that explains the "P" such as the cabinets around, the delicious burgers, a variety of tasty wines and beers explain why this restaurant has been a point of encounter since the '70s. If this is not enough to makes you try, let me give you an advice, don't even bother you asking for Ketchup or french fries, they simply don't believe on that.

As usual I ordered a lentil soup which comes with chips, just the perfect consistency and flavor. The the Ranch cheeseburger, came after, juicy and hot on a delicious bread with chipotle mayo. Great service and a big patio complete the equation.
Enjoy it right at Maple.

Tootsie's Café


Okay, so you've seen the picture above. Enough said. Tootsie's is a hole in the wall hidden next to the building in the corner of Hardwood and Bryan street. Step in and you'll feel right in Brooklyn. Huge, cheap menu filled with greasy food for the starving penny pincher, and others. I had the Philly Cheese Steak sandwich. Very satisfying. With a drink and fries spent under $7, all was yummy. Don't be afraid, just walk in, stand in line and enjoy the food without counting the calories.

La Jaivita.


Weird, I always wrote Jaibita with b. Anyway, this Mexican seafood oasis in the middle of Harry Hines is well worth the drive. I won't discuss the amazing cocktails: vuelve a la vida, shrimp or ceviche, nor the ice cold beers or the crazy sea food nachos. The mood is the thing. Starting with the music and the waiting staff, they greet you with an wide smile. And if you want to play Don Juan with the waitress, you might be up for a surprise, if not ask Fito. I will not reccomend you to try it, I am going back as soon as I can. Preferebly after some heavy drinking the night before.
