Chef-Grown Gardens Enhance the Experience at These Texas Restaurants
Scott Girling did not expect his garden to attract so many admirers. When a passion project in the backyard of his casual Italian restaurant in Denton saw its first spring bloom in 2024, passersby began to stop for a closer look at the climbing melon vines and long, curved trombetta squashes dangling from leafy arches. Whenever Girling was out picking weeds or checking for pest damage, the usually reserved chef found himself fielding inquiries on his pots of Italian herbs and engaging in lengthy discussions about growing tomatoes. Now, when he arrives to begin rolling pasta and preparing ragus each day at Osteria il Muro, named for his maternal grandparents from Sicily, it’s common to witness groups pausing to appreciate what his staff now affectionately calls the “Denton Botanical Garden.”

At Ichika, Chef Leo Kekoa Introduces Japanese Kaiseki Dining to North Texas
To dine in North Texas’ first restaurant dedicated to kaiseki—a multicourse hyper-seasonal affair and the pinnacle of Japanese haute cuisine—you’re going to have to leave Dallas. You’re going to have to venture to Plano, and not even downtown Plano. In a strip mall just south of Stonebriar, Ichika sits nestled between a bubble tea shop and a CPAP Express. Inside the restaurant, gentle piano music pipes through the speakers. Eight curved seats line a single counter. The decor is all clean lines and pale wood. Even the lone art piece on the wall is spare, geometric, and wooden. When the first bottle of sake arrives, so does a tray full of hand-crafted glass cups, each with its own unique design, so every diner can choose his or her favorite.

Sweet Georgia Brown’s is Soulful
Sweet Georgia Brown’s Homecooking where the food is soulful and plenty of it to go around. Located in South Dallas at 2840 East Ledbetter this Dallas staple seriously doesn’t need a write up. If you don’t believe us try to grab a table Sunday afternoon after local church services. Served cafeteria-style, Sweet Georgia Brown’s tells us they are BBQ, but probably not in the sense of BBQ that comes to mind right away in Texas. This is all homespun and delicious in a different way. Like your Uncle and a Saturday afternoon way.
