Stories by local bloggers on things to do and places to explore.
A group of Discover North Dallas bloggers met up for lunch at Low Country Quisine in Addison earlier this month. We'd heard that the food was good, and the cupcakes were even better. We were...
If there's a problem in the neighborhood, who you gonna call? Right - Ghost Busters. But if there's a problem under the hood, who you gonna call? INNOVATIVE AUTO WORKS These guys know cars. And they know how to treat a client! The techs at Innovative fix what needs to be fixed and nothing more. Take your car in for an oil change and they change the oil, rather than finding another $300 of "optional" service items needing attention. They'll even give you a price estimate over the phone so you can budget for upcoming...
Part of the joy of living in North Dallas is the plethora of Asian restaurants. Vietnamese to Korean, traditional Chinese to spicy Indian, there’s no end to the specialty foods on offer.

So, again, being the nosey person that I am I stopped by the shop on Saturday to sample the goodies. The shop, Sweet Firefly, is located in II Creeks shopping center in Richardson. Stopping by on a...
In Lewisville, there is a fantastic dog park. Large and open, there is lots of room to run, play and socialize. Plus, it is divided into sections for large and small dogs. The double gate gives opportunity...
I am fairly certain that there is nothing else like Felax in the North Dallas area. I knew going in that I could expect reflexology and an oxygen bar, but I never dreamed the atmosphere would be so...
I absolutely love farmers markets. The produce that you can find at these outdoor markets are seasonal, delicious, and the person who grew it will tell you a million different recipes on how to cook...
