    Raw food and Tuscan recipes: The best food and drink events in Dallas this week

    Jonathan Rienstra
    Jan 29, 2013 | 12:00 am

    Variety is the spice of life, which is apt, because we’re talking meals of all types this week. You can find yourself on the raw food end of the spectrum just as easily as you might feast on steak and lobster. If you’re up to create, Tuscan chef Enzo Minopoli has you covered, or you can sit back and relax with Joel Harloff, who is pairing his creative dishes with Oak Cliff Cellars’ Napa Valley inventions. Oh, and we’ve got beer, because, obviously, we’re gonna have beer. Dig in.

    Hot Dog News

    Portillo's hot dog chain opens first airport shop in Dallas-Fort Worth

    Travelers taking flight can soon get a hot dog: Portillo’s, the fast-casual chain from Chicago, is opening the first-ever Portillo’s airport location in Dallas Fort Worth International Airport.

    The new location is one of two — along with another in The Villages, Florida — that will feature a new small, dine-in only format. It won't have the traditional drive-thru. Because there is no drive-thru at the airport, see. See what I'm saying.

    According to a spokesperson, the shop will open in 2026.

    Unlike traditional Portillo’s locations, the airport restaurant will feature a smaller, walk-up accessible footprint with multiple ordering touchpoints – including at the register, self-order kiosks, and order ahead for pick-up.

    There will also be a variety of seating options accommodating more than 50 guests as well as a grab-and-go area — useful for travelers taking food on the plane, to their gate, or for leisurely meals during layovers or the unfortunate flight cancellation.

    Portillo's partner for the DFW Airport location is PhaseNext Hospitality, whose president and CEO Roz Mallet says she is "thrilled to partner with Portillo's on this first airport location."

    “As a fan of the culture, food, and history of Chicago, I have also been a longtime fan of Portillo’s,” Mallet says.

    Guests can expect signature Portillo’s items like Chicago-style hot dogs, Italian beef sandwiches, char-grilled burgers, and Portillo’s "famous" 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 seven other locations in DFW, in Allen, Arlington, Denton, Fort Worth, Grand Prairie, Grapevine, and Mansfield.
