    This Week's Hot Headlines

    Hot new restaurants and mosquito control top 5 most popular stories this week

    Lindsey Wilson
    Jun 6, 2015 | 12:05 pm

    Editor’s note: Another week has come and gone, and there’s a lot we all probably missed. But we’re looking out for you, kid. Here are the most popular stories from this past week:

    1. Texas farmer deploys 5 strategies to control mosquitoes after heavy rains. The recent rains have submerged much of the land Marshall Hinsley farms south of Dallas, and the sudden, shallow ponds have become habitats for mosquitoes, who make being outdoors in the evening intolerable. Here is his approach to mitigating their annoyance — without eradication.

    2. Where to eat in Dallas right now: 10 new restaurants for on-top-of-it foodies. For this rendition of Where to Eat, the theme is all about new. In a propitious set of circumstances, June 2015 has plenty of contenders. If you live to dine at the newest restaurants around Dallas-Fort Worth, you’ve come to the right list.

    3. Dallas city officials shut down streets and gird for possible flooding. Lake Lewisville climbed to its highest point yet late on Saturday, May 30, following another wave of rain that swept through the Dallas area the night before. Water levels at the lake were at a 537.02-foot elevation, a 100-year flood mark. The flooding was the result of rain in the upper basins of the Trinity, which filled the reservoirs upstream of Dallas, exceeding capacity and overflowing area lakes.

    4. Highly rated North Dallas neighborhood restaurant forced to close too soon. If you loved the mezze platter and the charming hospitality of Oso Food & Wine, then you were disappointed to learn that the Preston-Forest restaurant closed on May 30. Owner Michael Cox announced the abrupt closing in a note, in which he thanked his family, staff and customers.

    5. No more 5-cent fee: City of Dallas repeals current plastic bag law. Plastic bags are now back on the table as the Dallas City Council voted to repeal the 5-cent fee on disposable shopping bags, as well as a vote against banning plastic bags entirely.

    So long, mezze platter.

    Tom Cruise to make Dallas BBQ stop while on Mission Impossible tour

    Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible — The Final Reckoning

    How's this for a mission impossible? Hollywood legend Tom Cruise is coming to Dallas to eat barbecue, while on a quick Texas tour to promote the latest chapter of his smash film franchise Mission Impossible.

    The Top Gun star revealed on Instagram that, as part of a trip to promote Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning, he'd be visiting two Texas cities: San Antonio and Dallas.

    "On May 22, I'm coming to the great state of Texas," Cruise said in the Instagram video. "I'll be visiting Fort Sam Houston in San Antonio before stopping by some theaters to see you at some of the first screenings of Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning."

    After the whirlwind tour through Alamo City, he'll hop on a plane to Dallas.

    "We're going to fly to Dallas, where I'm going to get some delicious barbecue before going to more theaters to say hello. And I can't wait," he said.

    Unfortunately, for now, he's not saying exactly where.

    Which BBQ?
    If it's a barbecue joint with buzz he's seeking, that would call for a trip to Fort Worth, whose BBQ scene is currently among the buzziest in Texas — so buzzy, it earned a special category in CultureMap's 2025 Tastemaker Awards, with 12 nominees for Best Barbecue of the year. (It's also what chef Tim Love suggests.)

    If he's sticking to Dallas proper and looking for a celebrity-endorsed place, his pick would have to be Slow Bone, the BBQ restaurant recently featured on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives. (Slow Bone is all over it with an offer of a Texas nail, their brisket sandwich; Hurtado chimes in and so does Ten 50 BBQ.)

    Otherwise, there are older favorites like Pecan Lodge and Lockhart Smokehouse; or two places with Austin roots: Loro and Terry Black's. If he's using CultureMap Dallas' Best Restaurants of 2025 as inspiration, he'll spy Zavala's Barbecue, the family-owned barbecue spot in Grand Prairie, which made the list.

    Which movie theater?
    Despite its name, The Final Reckoning is not the concluding chapter of the long-running series. In June 2023, Director Christopher McQuarrie told Fandango that the writing team already has ideas for future installments of Ethan Hunt's saga.

    Although Mission: Impossible — The Final Reckoning had its world premiere in Tokyo on May 5 and will screen at the Cannes Film Festival on May 14, its official theatrical release is May 23. Sharp-eyed fans might notice several local theaters have matinee showtimes on May 22.

    As for which Dallas movie theater he'll visit, if he's going for the best viewing experience, the IMAX at AMC NorthPark or Cinemark Dallas seem like two good bets.
