Haute House

This contemporary Oak Lawn townhome fulfills every Dallasite's wish

It is possible to have everything you want in a home and be in a highly sought-after location — and this Oak Lawn townhome is proof. Located right in the coveted neighborhood's heart, 4023 Bowser Ave. combines contemporary design, luxurious features, and multiple outdoor living areas for a home that truly exemplifies elegant urban living.

The three-story property is one of four units, each with its own private, gated entry off Bowser Avenue. A first-floor patio and bedroom give guests space, while the second floor functions as the hub for entertaining.

A gourmet kitchen with glass tile backsplash and a built-in wine cooler opens into the light and bright living and dining rooms, which are delineated by a double-sided gas fireplace. A wall of windows makes the warm wood floors glow, while build-ins give treasured collections somewhere to shine. Two full bathrooms plus a half bathroom with shower provide comfort on each level.

On the third floor resides a study, utility room with washer and dryer, and the master suite, which also boasts its own gas fireplace and a jetted tub. Tray and coffered ceilings add architectural interest while skylights make the rooms seem even bigger, though at 2,443 square feet the home is generously sized for the area. Balconies on the two upper floors supply additional outdoor living space.

In need of even more sunshine? Venture up to the private rooftop deck, which displays city views and offers up more than enough space for a barbecue grill. Perhaps the most unsung hero of urban living, though, is the attached garage, with two of its bays reserved for this address.

Listed for $614,900 with the Hickman and Weber Group at Ebby Halliday Realtors, the townhome also has one more special perk: no HOA fees. Definitely the complete package for Dallasites looking to have it all.

Dallas celeb team to deliver newsstand themed restaurant-bar in Deep Ellum

Chloe's

Newsstand facade

A new bar with a cutesy theme and celebrity ties is opening on the edge of Deep Ellum. Called Chloe’s Newsstand, it's a restaurant-bar with a newsstand theme from entrepreneur Hank Keller, Super Bowl champion Remi Ayodele, and chef Rami Rassas.

According to a release, it'll open at The Epic, the mixed-use development on Pacific Avenue, in early 2023.

Said release is a mildly cringey read. To wit:

"With its debut edition rolling off the presses in early 2023, Chloe’s Newsstand is the definition of a newsworthy development that’s sure to capture six-inch headlines."

Decor includes booths, dimly lit walls, classic photography, a chandelier at the entrance, a rack of old newspapers, and a graffiti-filled hall.

“We’re aiming to take the Dallas nightlife experience to another level,” Keller said. “We want people to feel like they’re someplace unique and exclusive without feeling pretentious.”

The food will combine American cuisine and shareable tapas-style plates, highlighting chef Rami’s fusion of flavor and flare. Flare, do you suppose he'll be using a lot of fire?

The bar will serve old standards plus innovative specialty cocktails that are "sure to create their own headlines." Zing!

Rassas, known as Chef Rami Raw in culinary circles, is a MasterChef contestant who specializes in meal prep and in-home private dining.

Keller is the man behind Dallas’ Lights All Night music festival. He also operates Highland Concerts, a promotions and event company, and is an expert at raising capital, twice landing on Empact Showcase’s “Empact 100 List,” an annual award honoring the Top 100 entrepreneurs in America under the age of 35.

Ayodele is a DFW native who played football at the University of Oklahoma and won a Super Bowl ring with the New Orleans Saints. A graduate of South Grand Prairie High School, he's partnered with Keller on previous entertainment venues.

Former Dallas chef and Chopped winner debuts new restaurant in Frisco

WB's

A bountiful plate awaits you.

There's a new restaurant opening in Frisco from a chef familiar to Dallas diners: Called WB's Table, it's from Wade Burch, most recently chef at Perle on Maple, and it will open at 279 Main St. #132, in a former Subway, in mid-October.

The restaurant is an offshoot of WB’s Kitchen + Catering, a takeout/to-go operation Burch founded during the pandemic when he saw a market for chef-prepared high-quality meals that people could take home.

The new restaurant will open in the suite next door, providing diners with two Wade Burch options: a sit-down dinner at WB's Table or a grab-and-go at WB's Kitchen.

Prior to Perle on Maple at Le Méridien Dallas/The Stoneleigh, Burch worked at The Plaza Hotel in New York, The Pan Pacific Hotel in San Francisco, and The Hotel Crescent Court in Dallas. He also appeared on and won on Season 11 of Food Network’s Chopped.

Spokesperson Sherry Woodard says that the Table will be a completely different menu from what Burch is serving at the Kitchen, where the menu was crafted with the idea of meals at home featuring comfort food dishes such as beef stroganoff and spaghetti & meatballs.

"WB's Table will have a more upscale menu, with a full bar including craft cocktails and a curated wine list," she says.

Wine will occupy a big role. Burch trained at the School for American Chefs at Beringer Vineyards in Napa Valley, and as well as Windows on the World Wine School in New York. He's into wine.

"He'll be able to offer advice on pairing with meals and to tell you the story of the food," Woodard says.

The space seats about 45 and they've completely redone the interior to mirror the comfortable style at WB's Kitchen.

"The idea with WB's Table is that it’s upscale dining but in a casual atmosphere," she says. "It'll definitely have a chef menu but with a come-as-you-are atmosphere, mimicking exactly how it would be if Wade were cooking for you at home."
