Fortaleza by Don Arturo Brings a New Perspective on Mexican Cuisine to Norman

Fortaleza by Don Arturo wasn't originally supposed to be a restaurant. Chef Don Arturo Garcia Acevedo and the team behind Don Arturo Events were searching for a commercial kitchen to expand their catering and private-event business. They needed more room to prepare food, store equipment, and accommodate larger events when someone suggested another possibility: opening their own restaurant.

13 Restaurants Taking Christmas Eve Reservations in the OKC Metro

As a fairly new Okie who had never celebrated holidays outside of Missouri, it was a big change for me when we began celebrating every other year here in the metro. At first, planning a holiday seemed a bit overwhelming, trying to match the special memories I had growing up. But it has turned into something I have really fallen in love with because, after all, it isn’t really about recreating something from long ago; it’s about making something new with your loved ones!

Momoa, Grammer projects fuel 'unprecedented surge' for OKC filming

On a breezy autumn afternoon in downtown Oklahoma City, passersby pondered whether they were more likely to spot Jason Momoa or Kelsey Grammer as they watched film crew members setting up lights, hauling cables and holding on to colorful set pieces outside the Skirvin Hotel . On that particular day, those who guessed Grammer were correct: Cast and crew on the faith-based movie "His Heart," starring the Primetime Emmy Award-winning "Frasier" actor, Esai Morales ("Mission Impossible") and Jayne Wisener ("Sweeney Todd"), were working in and around the historic hotel on Wednesday, Oct. 28. Since Momoa ("Aquaman") and production on the crime thriller "Copperhead" made a splash in the same part of downtown just the previous week, it's easy to understand why Oklahoma City denizens could get confused. Although filming is scheduled to wrap on the star-studded "Copperhead" on Tuesday, Nov. 3, OKC is continuing to host lots of lights, camera and action this fall during what's being described by the Oklahoma City Film & Creative Industries Office as an "unprecedented surge" for the city's film sector. “Our ambitions for being a film destination continue to be realized. The number and quality of productions happening all at once this fall is

The Best Whiskey Bars in OKC for Cold-Weather Sipping

Dining on a Prime bone-in rib-eye, it feels right to be surrounded by a veritable gallery of whiskey bottles.
