Jonathan's Southern Kitchen Oak Cliff

Let me start by saying- wonderful location. In the heart of Oak Cliff- Bishop Arts District- very charming and right by another specialty restaurant VH Pho House so no competition there. Either you want something fried or you want soup.. This review will definitely be my invitation for people to come back into and support Oak Cliff. With all of the gentrification going on- I am definitely taking part in enjoying what my hometown has to offer. Oak Cliff has been known for far too long for negativity; crime, AIDS epidemic and a struggling school district- but no longer. We are making some changes and I am here for it.   The 30-seat dining room is a cozy blend of homegrown (local staff, one page menu with explanation of ingredients (I need that)) and rustic modern (eclectic drink menu, main street patio seating, dallas trolley stop). You can also eat at the 4 seat bar with direct views of the kitchen staff and the stove. Jonathan's menu is by-the-book southern. Grits and oatmea

I Thought It Was Me....

It's been a while I know!! Just had a lot going on in July. Updates coming soon. However, I wanted to talk about this discovery I made in finding out that when it comes to dating- GUESS WHAT girls the guys are just as scared as we are!!! I did not fully realize though until this weekend. Backstory: I have a good friend  with whom I hang out with all the time. She has a God brother with whom she is really close with and she always tries to fix him up with people. So I would say the past 3 months- since her birthday in May- we all have been hanging really tight. Her birthday, his birthday, my birthday, family functions, summertime fun- just hanging. The attraction was there- conversations happened- laughs- grocery store runs and he even cooked for me (and my 8 visitors) at 3am... so I am like hey he kinda cute, showing interest etc. I am an awesome tease/flirt....its the afterwards actions and conversations that I fail out i.e the real relationship- but I digress. So I am showi
