    Getting saucy

    Award-winning Dallas chefs launch sweet and saucy new venture

    Two Dallas chefs have created something sweet with their own new line of jams and sauces.

     

    Dennis Kelley and Melody Bishop, the husband-and-wife team who've worked at restaurants such as Lark on the Park and Up on Knox, just launched R&O Pantry, with goodies such as tomato sauce, pear preserves with vanilla and rosemary, and strawberry-raspberry jam.

     

    Bishop says that making jam is something they've always done.

     

    "We made and sold our own jam back when we worked in Los Angeles, before moving to Dallas," she says.

     

    The couple saw the potential to turn their professional hobby into a legitimate business after a collaboration with Hailey Nutt and Brenton Phillips, owners of Tribal Cafe, the popular Bishop Arts restaurant and juice bar.

     

    "When Tribal was newly opened, I saw they had jam on the menu," Bishop says. "I said I would be happy to make their jam. It became popular, and they asked if I could jar it to sell in their retail area."

     

    When they saw the positive response from customers, R&O Pantry was born. Named after their two children, Ruby and Oscar, it's currently sold at Tribal, with plans to create a website and sell it online.

     

    Their offerings follow what's in season. A current concoction, Pear and Lemon Marmalade — with cardamom, cloves, and cinnamon — is sure to be Paddington Bear-approved. Ingredients come from local farmers markets and are mostly organic and non-GMO.

     

    Kelley and Bishop, who were nominated for a CultureMap Rising Star Chef Tastemaker award in 2015, have not abandoned the restaurant world. Since leaving Up on Knox in 2018, they've been pursuing their goal of opening a restaurant in the East Dallas/Lakewood area. All those jams and tomato sauces they're making will surface at their new place.

     

     R&O Pantry will hold a pop-up at Tribal All Day Café on February 8 at 6 pm.

    Ice Cream News

    Maya Creamery unrolls ice cream and Indian treats in Las Colinas

    An ice cream shop specializing in rolled ice cream is coming to Las Colinas: Called Maya Creamery, it’s part of a small but international chain, and is set to open in late July at 3341 Regent Blvd. #140, in the Stampede Crossing shopping center near I-635 and Belt Line Road.

    Maya Creamery is owned by Sukhi Singh Anand and his family, who previously owned seven locations in Phoenix, Arizona; his grandfather opened the first location in Mumbai in 1979.

    Anand opened the first Texas shop in McKinney in 2024, and they opened shops in Frisco in April, and Little Elm in May.

    “We chose to continue my grandfather’s legacy and expand in the U.S.,” Anand says.

    They specialize in rolled ice cream, which is made by pouring the ice cream mixture onto a freezing metal plate, mixing in toppings, then rolling it with a slicer, and arranging the rolls in cups. The trend first surfaced in the U.S. about a decade ago; according to Anand, they were pioneers in the rolled ice cream community in the U.S.

    "We were the first one to introduce rolls and Maya special plates, which became very popular among the Indian community," Anand says.

    Maya Creamery also offers Indian desserts such as falooda, mango lychee rolls, and rabdi, which are similar to a milkshake. There’s a rabdi gulab jamun plate with sweet fried dumplings on top of rabdi; and rabdi kulfi, which is like an ice pop.

    Other desserts include macarons, crepes, boba tea, and cassata, which is slices of ice cream on top of sponge cake. Most items on the menu are under $10.

    Irving is their fourth location in Texas, and Anand says they're in the process of opening six more across within the next year.

    "We chose this location due to its visibility from the highway and due to a high demand from people in Irving who were requesting Maya to bring a location more accessible to them," Anand says.
