Javier’s Nearly 50 With Mexico City Still on the Menu
Somewhere around 5 p.m. every night, the lights come up at Javier’s Gourmet Mexicano on Cole Avenue and the regulars start drifting in. There’s no lunch here and never has been. Javier’s does dinner, and it has been doing dinner since 1977. Do the math and you land on a big one. Next year the place turns 50, and Javier Gutierrez is still the name on the sign.

Keith Lee Joins Former UFC Fighter Brother For Dallas Restaurant Opening
Dallas-based food critic Keith Lee is stepping away from his usual restaurant reviews to help his older brother celebrate a new business venture. The social media star will join former UFC fighter Kevin Lee on Nov. 1, for the grand opening of Kevin’s comfort-food restaurant, Braised, at 1499 Regal Row, Suite 205, Dallas. The brothers will give complimentary meals to the first 30 customers, giving early visitors a chance to meet the pair while getting their first taste of the restaurant. Originally launched in Miami, Braised is beginning a new chapter in Dallas after Kevin relocated to North Texas. The restaurant is known for its slow-cooked meats and hearty comfort food, with a menu featuring oxtail, braised short ribs and savory pot pies. The short ribs and pot pies already have a connection to Keith’s food events. Both were popular at his inaugural Familee Day festival earlier this year, where they sold out.

The Clara Hotel, formerly the NYLO Hotel, completed a major makeover, and its two new dining destinations are giving the property a personality that extends well beyond its guest rooms.
