    Tea News

    Lovely vintage-style tea room opens in Frisco in time for the holidays

    Flea Style, the hipster shopping experience in Deep Ellum from entrepreneur Brittany Cobb, is not only opening a retail spin-off in Frisco, it's also opening a restaurant.

    Called Heirloom Haul, the restaurant will be located inside Flea Style's sprawling 6,100-square-foot location at The Star in Frisco, at 6765 Winning Dr., #830, in the same center as Ziziki's and the now-closed Jihwaja Korean BBQ.

    The opening is slated for early to mid-November.

    Heirloom will be a fast-casual experience serving breakfast, lunch, shared plates, and tea service. The concept will also cater in-house as well as events in the community.

    Cobb developed the menu – which also includes wine, beer, and a coffee program – with Los Angeles-based chef Ryan Woolley. She says in a release that she wanted to create a culinary experience she's been craving.

    "I grew up enjoying tea rooms that had delicious casual comfort food in a pretty inspiring setting," she says. "I can’t wait to eat our amazing food with the maker community daily."

    The menu features breakfast bites including avocado toasts, nutter butter and jam toasts, and doughnuts and pastries that are locally made.

    But lunch is the main focus. There'll be salads and sandwiches made in-house from fresh ingredients, including spreads and dressings that are made from scratch.

    There'll also be shared plates such as deviled eggs, cheese boards, and charcuterie boards, garnished with bites from local pickle, jam, and nut companies.

    But the even bigger focus than lunch is tea, which will also set Heirloom Haul apart from the usual fast-casual concept. There'll be finger sandwiches such as pimento cheese, chicken salad, whipped strawberry, and cucumber cream; hot or iced tea; and treats from local businesses including biscotti, cookies, and macarons.

    Items will be served on pretty tea carts and vintage china that Cobb has procured from local and national flea markets.

    Dining spaces will include the main dining hall, an outdoor patio, or in Flea Style's 1,300-square-foot studio space, available for private parties.

    Unsurprisingly, the decor promises to be distinctive, with elements sourced from Flea Style's makers and favorite shopping outposts. That includes antique metal columns, aged table bases, and vintage metal tv trays, sourced from Canton in East Texas.

    Banquette upholstery is from flea markets in Cobb's hometown Southern California. Frames dotting the walls were collected in fields and antique malls. A revamped 1966 Scotty camper is from a family in Frisco, another local touch.

    This will be Flea Style's second location. After doing seasonal pop-up events for many years, Cobb opened a brick and mortar location in Deep Ellum in June 2018.

    Hot Dog News

    Chicago hot-dog chain Portillo's to open first location in Dallas

    The Portillo's Beef Bus will kick off a North Texas tour this week.

    A hot dog chain is expanding its DFW footprint and that includes two high-profile locations: Portillo’s, the fast-casual restaurant concept known for Chicago-style street food, will open three DFW locations including its very first in Dallas proper, and another in Fort Worth.

    The Dallas location will be at Galleria Dallas, while the Fort Worth will be at Tanger Outlets Fort Worth.

    But first: The chain opens a previously-announced location in Grand Prairie on Thursday August 21 at 10 am, following a ribbon cutting at 9:30 am. It's at 3102 SH-161, where it offers seating for 160 and features the brand’s “Restaurant of the Future” design — a smaller footprint and boasting a rustic garage theme.

    It will feature a double drive-thru, Pick Up shelves, and a grab-and-go area for people ordering takeout.

    Once open, it'll be the eighth in the DFW market.

    The two other locations still in the works will also feature the smaller Restaurant of the Future design:

    • Portillo’s new location at Tanger Outlets Fort Worth will be located near the East parking lot on North Freeway Boulevard
    • The Galleria Dallas location will be located at the intersection of Dallas North Tollway and Southern Boulevard.

    Both restaurants will offer seating for about 120 guests inside and approximately 40 outside.

    They're also opening a location at DFW Airport — the first such location, featuring a new small, dine-in only format — in 2026.

    Portillo’s is known for its Chicago-style hot dogs, Italian beef sandwiches, char-grilled burgers, crinkle-cut fries, salads, and chocolate cake.

    Hot dogs come in regular, chili cheese, Polish sausage, and Maxwell Street Polish sausage which has mustard and grilled onions.
    Their Italian beef sandwich features thinly sliced roast beef served on French bread, which is then dipped in hot gravy. You can order it dipped with sweet or hot peppers and mozzarella.

    Portillo's first entered the Dallas market with a location at the Grandscape development in The Colony in January 2023. They have six other locations in DFW, in Allen, Arlington, Denton, Fort Worth, Grapevine, and Mansfield. They're also opening a location at DFW Airport — the first such location, featuring a new small, dine-in only format — in 2026.

    “We’re thrilled to continue bringing the Portillo’s experience of iconic, craveworthy food and friendly hospitality to more communities across Texas,” says Portillo’s CEO Michael Osanloo. “These upcoming openings mark an exciting step in sharing what makes Portillo’s special with even more guests throughout the state.”
