The Spread: Are You Team Bisou Or Team Bisous Bisous?

Bisous Bisous has beef with Bisou, the Old Zippers spot will open up to a new concept, Fletcher’s announces nationwide deliveries of corny dogs and more.

Cocktails, beef, and even mermaid tails are hitting the Dallas food scene lately. In the past week alone, there has been an exchange of words about new cocktail lounges, the announcement of a new seafood commercial worth salivating about, and even some online backlash stronger than that King Triton self.

Let’s start with the last part first. A new place for continental cuisine called kiss celebrated its grand opening along McKinney Avenue in Uptown Dallas this weekend, but the launch has not been without controversy. Within four days of opening, the Dallas Observer reports, disgruntled customers submitted at least 32 one-star reviews to Google complaining about the food and service. However, those reviews actually landed on the Google page of a nearby bakery called Uptown Kisses kisses pastrieswhich opened more than six years ago. As you might expect, their company’s accidental slams have been a headache for the Bisous Bisous owner Andrea Meyerwho has since launched a GoFundMe page to raise funds for legal fees it expects by suing Bisou for damages. At the time of this writing, the campaign has received over $ 9,520 from 97 donors who are hoping to see the new American restaurant and cocktail lounge “bisou” (French for “kiss”) goodbye.

On the other hand, we’re excited to welcome a cocktail lounge to Dallas, that of Lower Greenville pharmacist, from CultureMap reports that it will soon be offering a range of “avant-garde” cocktails. Among the seductive cocktails served in the intimate space previously hosted by Wah wah room is an offer called “Only Fans”, which consists of reposado tequila, passion fruit, lemon and cassis caviar.

Speaking of temptations: Even if you take in the charm of the go-go boys in the now closed Zippers, this week the news came that the restaurateur Greg Katz (Beverly’s Bistro & Bar) turns the former gay bar into a cocktail lounge called Fitzhugh Avenue Clifton Club. Katz is still ironing out the details, but tells the Dallas Morning News that he wants to offer a “simple list of cocktails and wines” in a “hotel lobby” style. At the time of writing, the space is currently being gutted – presumably by its stripper poles. Let’s hope that the chlorine and poppers smell is also removed!

The Deep Ellum building, which was last in operation, is also being redesigned Stone deck pizza. While we have already reported on the trio of owners – The free man owner John Jay Myers, retired free man investor Ed vice and a long-standing fixture in the service industry and music scene in Dallas Jeff Biehler (most recently the managing director of the now closedclose The foundry) – and their plans, a. to open Char bar-inspired new spot called Cheap steaks that will serve affordable steaks in a venue with two live music stages, CultureMap met the man who will be in charge of the kitchen this week. cook Israel Fearonwhose resume contains smoke, Hotel Saint-Germain, The porch and Neighborhood services, will shape the menu, which promises to offer at least a few steak options for under $ 20 per plate. Expect the spot to open in the next few weeks.

Over in East Dallas, meanwhile, the outspoken and controversial Toasted owner Bob Sinott shared with CultureMap plans to expand its brand’s activities to Plano Stores in Legacy North. Will he be serving his, uh, unique version of Vietnamese coffee at the new location? Either way, the guy knows how to make a splash.

Speaking of splashes, near, far, or wherever you are, PaperCity reports that the mermaid dreams that cross your mind are now becoming in new life Mermaid raw food bar Concept in Bishop Arts. The venue invites guests to sample a sea of ​​ocean-themed cocktails and appetizers – oysters, lobster tails, and tuna crudo – in an ocean-themed bar and champagne room with mermaid and dolphin shaped tables.

And even though the colony appears to be a full 20,000 miles away, the DMN is still considering a trip Barley & Board‘s new, second outpost in the region is definitely worth it. The Denton brand created by the guys in the celebrated band Central lake their “successor” store just opened at opened Grandscape last weekend where they offer a range of in-house beers, cocktails, customizable cold meats and gastropub dishes.

Last this week, the people from Fletcher’s Original Corny Dogs announced this week that fans of their Texas State Fair-approved tariffs don’t have to go anywhere to devour their offerings. Thanks to a new partnership with the food delivery brand, fans can now enjoy what was once seasonal offerings in every season and in all 50 states of the Union Gold belly. All six cheesy dog ​​species that Fletcher makes are fried in-house and then shipped frozen overnight for customers to comfortably bake at home or air-fried. Order prices range from $ 49 to $ 149. To the best of our knowledge, it does not contain mustard.
