Hello, spring!
Us food nerds were out & about this month enjoying the outdoors and tasty food and drinks, plus festivals! Take a look at our recap below.
(Disclaimer: Some of our meals were provided by the restaurants in exchange for our honest opinions.)
Afternoon Tea Experience
Hotel Crescent Court in Uptown Dallas serves up a dainty afternoon tea and is featuring a Bridgerton theme this month. We enjoyed a variety of housemade scones, tea sandwiches and desserts, along with two luxury, blended loose leaf teas and champagne. Don’t miss the beautiful tunes by local harpist, Merry Miller. Buy your tickets here.

Hawaiian Flair at Mobettah’s
Mobettah’s Hawaiian Style Food opened a new location in Plano, and we stopped by for lunch to try this out! The portions are big with two meats, rice & macaroni salad, or upgrade to the “Ekolu” (“da big boy”) to get three meats. Their specialty is the Kalua Pig (tender slow-roasted pulled pork) & Pulehu Chicken (grilled & seasoned chicken), but we also loved the Katsu! Don’t skip adding a can of Hawaiian Sun to complete your meal.

Dallas Arboretum Food & Wine Festival
The Arboretum’s annual festival is one we look forward to each year. With the blooming flowers, top chefs and drinks, it’s a wonderful event all around. Have you seen the new flowers yet this season?

Southern Goodness at Biscuit Bar
The Biscuit Bar is now available for delivery through Doordash, UberEats and more. We seriously loved the Biscuit 2X4 box with FABB (fig, arugula, bacon and Brie), Buffalo Bleu, El Jefe and Fancy Chicken.
Check out their six locations around DFW.

Tex-Mex Galore at Oje’s
Family-owned restaurant, Oje’s, dishes up Tex-Mex staples, tasty margaritas and signature dishes like puffed tacos and Mexican style beef stew. It’s no wonder the restaurant has been around for three decades!
