This weekend I decided to go back to Deep Ellum with the other resident at Lake Pointe, the resident at Doctor’s Hospital and his wife, and my boyfriend. We decided to get together for dinner and explore the area a little more afterwards. We ended up eating at Cane Rosso, which is a great stop for pizza. We also passed by a popular place for barbecue, Pecan Lodge. We ended up opting for Cane Rosso, but I’m sure I’ll check out Pecan Lodge during a later visit.
Last time I was in Deep Ellum was a weeknight so I was looking forward to seeing what it would be like during the weekend. While waiting for our table we explored some. We walked by bars, music venues, a donut shop, and a small candy store. We found out later that the candy store is the entrance to a new speakeasy! It’s a pretty neat area, with an eclectic group of people. I really enjoy the area, but am also looking forward to exploring other areas of Dallas and Fort Worth during future weekends. Two of my Baylor classmates are in DFW, so I definitely need to make plans to see them as well.
In addition to spending some time with friends this weekend, my brother is also coming to town! I’m planning on spending some time showing him around my apartment, hopefully getting to the pool and grabbing dinner before the weekend ends.
