    The Dish on Dish

    New Preston Hollow restaurant dishes out details about chef and menu

    Jennifer Chininis

    Dish Preston Hollow, which opens February 24 at the corner of Hillcrest and Northwest Highway, has appointed an executive chef: Andrew Bell, who has worked in kitchens ranging from The Mercury, Aurora and Bolsa in Dallas to Uchi in Austin.

    In a release, Bell says he and Garreth Dickey, executive chef at the original location on Cedar Springs, share similar food philosophies of using fresh, simple ingredients “to make great-tasting, straightforward rustic yet refined dishes.” That means Bell will pick up signature dishes from Cedar Springs — such as BBQ-braised short ribs, grilled cauliflower steak and lamb lollipops — and add his own. Among the items new to Preston Hollow are oil-poached tuna salad and a veggie burger with fried green tomatoes and pickled zucchini.

    For desserts, Bell turned to Alison Morse of Front Room Tavern. She’ll remain onsite at Front Room but will act as head pastry chef at both locales. (Dish parent NL Group, owned by Tim McEneny, operates both restaurants.) Morse’s lineup includes toffee butter cake, ice cream soda with coffee ice cream, woodfire apple crisp, chocolate peanut butter trifle and banana pudding.

    Because this is Dallas, brunch is required. And Dish Preston Hollow will do that on Saturdays and Sundays, from 11 am-4 pm, right from the start. The brunch menu will mirror the one at Cedar Springs: skillets, breakfast tacos, short rib Benedict and Southern fried chicken sandwich, to name a few. The restaurant will be open from 11 am-10 pm, Sunday-Thursday, and 11 am-11 pm, Friday-Saturday.

    The first Dish opened in 2009, in the ilume building on Cedar Springs. McEneny’s vision is to roll out the concept in other neighborhoods across the country; having a dedicated executive chef at each one will help give it a distinct identity.

    Among the entrees at Dish Preston Hollow are these jumbo scallops with poached egg, sweet corn, bacon and pearl couscous.

    RIP Rain

    Dallas Caramel Company founder Rain McDermott dies at 52

    Dallas entrepreneur Rain McDermott, who founded artisan caramel maker Dallas Caramel Company when she was only 34 years old, died after a battle with breast cancer; she was 52.

    Her passing was noted on the company's Facebook page, stating that "it is with the heaviest hearts that we share the passing of our beloved founder, Rain McDermott. Rain lost her courageous battle with breast cancer, but not without an incredible fight—full of strength, grace, and unwavering spirit. She gave her all, just like she did in everything."

    A native Texan, Elizabeth Rain Reglin McDermott grew up in Houston and moved to Plano at the age of 7. According to her biography, when she turned 9, her father took her on a date to the Reunion Tower which inspired her creativity and propelled her desire to leave her own mark on the city.

    She attended El Centro College (now Dallas College), earning a degree in pastry, culinary & food service management, then started Dallas Caramel Company in 2007 to satiate her curiosity: Could she make a delicious caramel that would satisfy her sweet tooth?

    Her caramels and turtles, which were made at a facility in Wylie, were described as bold, unapologetically delicious, and as big as Texas, in 11 flavors — many inspired by Dallas, including Sea Salt, Orange, Cinnamon, Marshmallow, Espresso, TX Drunken Nut (Texas Whiskey & Texas Pecans), Pumpkin, Bacon, Apple Pie, Chocolate, Lemon Meringue, and traditional Original.

    Services were not yet announced but according to the post, the company will carry on "her mission of world caramel domination, one delicious piece at a time."

    Friends meanwhile called her "the sweetest and kindest soul," "an amazing woman and mentor," who was "adored for her enthusiasm and determination." Customers expressed gratitude for her wonderful caramels and doting personal service.

    "Rain's sweet smile lit up every room, her hugs could fix just about anything, and her love for caramel was only matched by her love for her husband Sean and her dogs Wylie and Maui," the post said. "She poured her heart into Dallas Caramel Company, and every bite of caramel tells a little piece of her story."
