Here’s everything we tried: 🍖 LA Galbi Short Ribs 🍖 Brisket 🍖 Garlic Pork Belly 🍖 Thin Cut Pork Belly 🐙 Baby Octopus 🍶 Soju & imported beer Don’t forget about all the delicious Korean side dishes (banchan)!

We DONUT skip a donut opportunity! 🍩 Have you We DONUT skip a donut opportunity! 🍩 Have you tried a mochi donut? These yummy donuts are made with rice flour, which makes them chewier than a regular donut. They’re also super cute. 😍 We tried a few at @mochinut_official, which has locations in Carrollton, Plano, Frisco & Richardson, and with Lewisville & Mansfield on the way. Don’t skip grabbing a boba-in-a-can (they even have an ube flavor!) or trying a Korean rice flour hotdog, which comes in some interesting coatings, like crispy ramen or Hot Cheetos. #donuts #dallasdonuts #mochidonuts #dallasdesserts #dallasbreakfast #dallasfoodnerd #foodnerd 📷: @amypyen
Bad Chicken you say? We’re here for it. 🐤 @b Bad Chicken you say? We’re here for it. 🐤 @badchickenrestaurant is not another Nashville hot chicken spot. Bad Chicken serves wings that are smoked (but not too smoked), and then they’re “flash-fried” to order. Choose from 15 sauces and four dry-spiced wings.  We chose the garlic parm and Buffalo mild sauces for our wings. Both full of flavor, and we have our eyes set on other sauces to try next time. The bacon PBJ sammich is just what it sounds like… fried chicken tossed in their signature jelly glaze, bacon and peanut butter sauce. 🤤 Wanna try something different? Get the Chicken Bomb Bowl, which comes with fried chicken, and guess want, curly fries. We were intrigued by the one with honey habanero and bang bang sauce. 10/10 would order again. Don’t pass up dessert. We’re begging you! Order the chocolate mousse cup or the fried cheesecake egg rolls. We heard the crème brûlée and sticky toffee are pretty dope too. There you go, folks! 🐓🐥 📍 6030 Luther Lane in Dallas at Preston Plaza / Preston Center *hosted #dallasfoodnerd #foodnerd #badchickenrestaurant #dallasrestaurants
