    Tofu Burritos

    Chipotle's vegan-coveted sofritas tofu comes to Texas

    In today's thrilling vegan news, Chipotle is adding a tofu option to its permanent national menu, to be available in Dallas-Fort Worth stores later in 2014, possibly by the end of spring. The company will offer its spicy scrambled tofu called "sofritas," which can be added to a burrito, taco, rice bowl or salad.

    The result of a year's worth of testing, the sofritas is a blend of tofu, chiles and spices that Chipotle chef-creator Nate Appleman likens to a chili. Made with organic, non-GMO tofu, it is braised with chipotle and poblano peppers, and it is meant to evoke sofrito, a spicy Latin sauce.

    The addition is a big deal not only because of the affirmation it gives to vegan dining, but also because Chipotle rarely changes its menu. Interest in veganism has been on the rise in the past five years. As for Chipotle's menu, the only notable ingredient it has added in the past 20 years is brown rice.

    Chipotle has embraced some of the issues that concern vegans such as factory farming. In September, it released a damning cartoon on the subject called The Scarecrow, and it is currently hosting a satiric online series on Hulu about factory farming called Farmed and Dangerous.

    The company has been deluged with requests on its Facebook page since it first introduced the sofritas in San Francisco in early 2013. The sofritas were rolled out on the West Coast in June 2013 and will be available in the Northeast on March 3.

    According to a manager at the Chipotle store in North Dallas, there've already been discussions about the roll-out in Texas. A Chipotle spokesman said that the company hoped it would be "soon." The sofritas are already available across the Southwest, including Colorado and New Mexico. A map on the website shows a state-by-state availability as it happens.

    Chipotle's Sofritas tofu mixture is good in tacos.

    French Food News

    Dallas restaurant Frenchie debuts in former Corner Bakery spot

    A French restaurant has debuted in an iconic Dallas space: Called Frenchie, it's a new concept from Travis Street Hospitality (Knox Street Bistro, Georgie) now open in North Dallas’ Preston Center Plaza in the former Corner Bakery space at 8420 Preston Center Plaza.

    Described as a quintessential French brasserie — designed as a casual, everyday restaurant serving an all-day menu of lunch and dinner (with breakfast launching in the coming weeks) — it's a new direction for Travis Hospitality, who are venturing outside of their usual Knox-Henderson neighborhood, with their first venture without white-tablecloth service.

    Frenchie is the natural evolution for founders Stephan Courseau and Daniele Garcia and culinary director, Bruno Davaillon, who have built a reputation on refined, French-forward restaurants like Knox Bistro, Georgie, and Le PasSage — tempering their French-born culinary heritage and fine-dining training with American sensibilities to create a more family-friendly concept designed for North Dallas’ premier mixed-use district.

    "Frenchie is an American French restaurant made by French guys who are now in the American mainstream,” Courseau says in a release. "Frenchie represents the version of the French people we are today. It’s who we became over the years – authentic to who we are today."

    Food and drink
    The menu blends classic French comfort food with all-day versatility, featuring crepes, rillettes, quiche, poulet rôti, tartare de boeuf, salade Parisienne, and pâtes au pistou. In the morning, coffee and croissants. At lunch, burgers and onion soup. At dinner, steak frites and profiteroles dinner.

    The wine list will feature small French wineries, while cocktails will include a "freezer martini" — custom bottled and pre-chilled by Travis Street Hospitality’s Executive Mixologist, Mario Martinez, exclusively for Frenchie.

    Decor
    The 4,000-square-foot restaurant will feature seating for 150 in the dining room and bar, and a 1,200-square-foot covered patio with an indoor-outdoor bar.

    Decor will be grounded in the fundamentals of classic French bistros, with design details such as pewter bar tops, patinaed mirrors, brass sconces, rattan chairs, and rows of banquettes.

    Audience
    The goal will be to become an everyday destination for families, parents, office workers, and shoppers at the Preston Plaza Center.

    Founded by Stephan Courseau and Daniele Garcia, Travis Hospitality has been on the dining scene since 2013 with the debut of Le Bilboquet. This was followed by the opening of Knox Bistro, Georgie and The Georgie Butcher Shop (2019), Rose Café at Le PasSage and Le PasSage (2024).
