Texas is the longest leg of our trip, with three cities planned on the schedule. Dallas is our first step into the state of guns, beef, and BBQ. From here on out, our trip is less about seeing amazing things, and more about eating amazing things.
Our first meal in Dallas was at
Babe's, a fried chicken joint where all the fixins are included. The chicken was good, but what made it memorable was the decor, which included cheesy chicken-related puns attached to famous movie icons. We also tried two of what's considered the best BBQ joints in the Dallas area:
Meshack--a literal shack operated in the suburbs, and
Sonny Bryan's, one of the oldest, most respected BBQ franchises around. Meshack had wonderful sausage, while Sonny Bryan's had a ton of personality.
Finally, for drinks, we went to NYLO's rooftop bar. In spite of the shitty weather, the view of the downtown skyline was impressive. And with $4 drinks, it's definitely worth coming back to.
