    6 Dallas restaurants get a shot on Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-ins & Dives

    UPDATE: Three more restaurants have emerged, including Tutta Pizza, Nora's, and CrushCraft Thai, bringing the total to six DFW eateries.

    --------------

    Three Dallas restaurants have definitely made the cut for the latest season of Food Network TV show Diners, Drive-ins, and Dives, including a taqueria, a barbecue spot, and a restaurant that specializes in fried chicken.

    The show is in its 28th season, with four new episodes already in the can and scheduled to air this spring.

    The DD&D crew were in Dallas in October 2017 joining host Guy Fieri, who was here to make an appearance at the State Fair of Texas. While in town, the crew were spotted filming at three area restaurants, all of which now appear on the TV show's website of featured Dallas restaurants.

    A spokesperson has confirmed that these three area restaurants will appear:

    • Tacos Mariachi
    • One90 Smoked Meats
    • Whistle Britches

    Being featured on DD&D is basically a ticket to restaurant paradise.

    Tacos Mariachi's moment in the spotlight comes first, on Episode 2, called "Delicious Discoveries," which airs on four dates, beginning on January 19.

    "Like they claim on their signage, it's all truly about the real life experience of Tijuana street flavors," is how the taqueria is described. "But it's all about convenience as it's smack dab in the middle of Dallas! Not particularly known for authentic Mexican food, it has been able to grab this coveted title with ease!"

    Hmm. Obviously a dig on Dallas for doing Tex-Mex. Really.

    "This counter service style restaurant has become well known for their crazy taco creations which always hit the spot as well as margaritas," they continue. "When you come in, you'll notice it's a no-frill place. They keep it simple with basic seating and decor and they specialize in the food and drink! It's almost a hole in the wall spot, but it'll quickly become your favorite spot to eat after your very first visit."

    One90 Smoked Meats appears on Episode 3, called "Bird and Beef," which makes its debut on February 2.

    The show calls One90 "the best BBQ Deli spot in East Dallas," that makes smoking meats an art form, and uses the word "perfection" twice: "As you may expect, it's all about a complete and delicious BBQ menu here and all is always prepared fresh and served to perfection each time."

    Whistle Britches busts out in Episode 4, called "All Kinds of Comfort," and debuts on February 9.

    The restaurant is touted for its "simple yet perfect" theme of chicken, biscuits, and beer. "Since they've opened up their doors to hungry customers in 2016, they have made a massive impact in their area and tend to dominate the Southern style cooking in the area," it says. The restaurant's chicken and waffles gets singled out - "they can topple any other Southern state," it says, so we can look forward to seeing chef Omar Flores show the Guy how it's done.

    Kwality Ice Cream shop to bring creamy exotic desserts to Frisco

    An ice cream chain with an Indian flair is dipping into Dallas-Fort Worth: Called Kwality Ice Cream, it's a concept founded in New Jersey that specializes in traditional Indian ice cream and cold drinks, and it's opening a location in Frisco, at 13089 Main St. #500, in a new shopping center.

    According to franchisee Raju Vikey, the shop will open sometime in 2025. It joins two DFW locations already open: Irving at 8600 N. Macarthur Blvd., and Euless, at 1060 N. Main St. at Harwood Crossing shopping center, which opened in April.

    Kwality Ice Cream was founded by food scientist Dr. Kanti Parekh and his son Anand, in New Jersey in 2003. It has expanded with 38 locations in 14 states including Pennsylvania, Florida, and Texas, where there are three locations in Houston and one in Austin.

    “The idea was to create a South Asian-specific ice cream, which is more known for fruits and nuts,” Anand says. “As a Ph.D. in food and nutrition, my father’s background and expertise were in flavor. He used that to create very unique flavors and top notes to give a really good mouth feel and experience.”

    They have close to 50 ice cream flavors with classics like cookies & cream, chocolate supreme, and butter pecan; but South Asian and Indian flavors dominate the menu with exotic options like green guava, lychee, and Nuttie Tuttie Fruitee, a berry-flavored ice cream with nuts and candied fruit.

    There is also kulfi, a frozen dessert that's like ice cream but with less added air so it has a stiffer, creamier texture. It's served in slices and comes in popular Indian flavors like pistachio, mango, and rose.

    Other novel frozen treats include cassata, an ice cream cake with three flavors of ice cream layered over sponge cake.

    As with many Asian desserts, they're often less sweet than American-style confections. Wild inventions include the mawa rabdi cup, with ice cream, rice noodles, basil seeds, and rose syrup, topped with nuts and candied fruit; and Thandai ice cream, a staple at Indian festivals, consisting of almonds, fennel seeds, poppy seeds, watermelon seeds, rose petals, pepper, cardamom, saffron, milk, and sugar.

    Rabdi is like a pudding, believed to have originated during the 1600s. Kwality makes it following the traditional method of slow-cooking milk until it thickens and reduces, enhancing its sweetness and creaminess, then adding ingredients like cardamom, saffron, and pistachios.

    Pints of ice cream and frozen desserts range from $8-$11, and cassata ice cream cake slices are $7.
