    St. Patrick's Day usually brings to mind liquid refreshment rather than food. But these Dallas restaurants are here to set us straight, with celebratory dishes and edible treats to eat, not just drink. Note: You're in luck if you like corned beef.

    Check out these St. Patrick's Day specials:

    City Works
    Both locations in Frisco and Fort Worth are offering a week of St. Patrick’s Day bites including corned beef Reuben ($15) with braised corned beef, champagne sauerkraut, Guinness caramelized onions, Swiss cheese, and whole grain whiskey mustard on toasted marble rye bread; shepherd’s pie ($18) with beef, vegetables, and goat cheese potato puree; and corned beef poutine ($14) with crispy fries, onion gravy, and cheese curds. March 12-18.

    Dunkin'
    The "not-just-doughnuts" chain is bringing back Irish Creme flavored coffees and espresso drinks – one of the most wished-for coffee flavors by the brand's fans – for the first time in five years. Irish Creme will be available as a flavor in Dunkin' hot and iced coffees, frozen coffee, lattes, cappuccinos, Americanos, macchiatos, and more. Through the end of March.

    Eatzi's
    Locations in Dallas and Grapevine will do a St. Patrick’s Day menu with Irish soda bread, the legendary sweet bread with raisins and caraway seeds; chocolate and pistachio mousse layered with white cake, Nutella croquante, and chocolate ganache; and an Irish whiskey cupcake with chocolate, coffee, whiskey, and Bailey’s Irish Cream. March 14-17. Corned beef, cabbage, and potatoes will also be available, but only at the grill March 16-17.

    Holy Grail Pub
    Plano pub opens early on March 17 at 10 am to serve their popular Guinness pancakes with Jameson Irish Whiskey and Bailey's whipped cream. All day they'll feature a special menu of Irish favorites such as their Irish Cuban sandwich, corned beef with cabbage, and an Irish isle cheeseboard.

    Hopdoddy
    Burger chain is offering a special burger to celebrate St. Patrick’s Day all month long: The Dubliner burger, inspired by shepherd's pie, includes cheddar mashed potatoes, "lamb pie" patty, mushrooms, carrots, peas, parsley & celery sour cream aioli. If you pair it with a Guinness beer, it's $10 through March 17. But the burger is available all month long.

    Mimi’s Cafe
    They're doing corned beef & cabbage with steamed carrots and potatoes with whole grain mustard for $15. Their corned beef is a house made, eight-hour, slow-cooked brisket. You can also get it in corned beef & hash with two eggs, roasted potatoes, and toast or muffin for $11, served daily on Mimi’s All-Day Brunch menu. March 15-17.

    The Playwright
    Traditional Irish pub at One Arts Plaza features daily tastings, as follows: March 13, 5-7 pm – Jameson IPA Tasting. March 14, 5-9 pm – Killian’s Pint Night. March 15 – Guinness and oyster specials.

    Public School Restaurant & Bar
    Both locations in Uptown Dallas and Addison will serve Mama's Little Yella Pils in verdant (and safe) green food coloring, for $7 a pint. March 15-17.

    Snuffer's Restaurant & Bar
    All 10 locations will be serving two corned beef sliders on mini toasted poppy seed buns with sauerkraut, Swiss cheese, pickles, thousand island dressing, and fries for $7. Green beer is $3. There'll be $2 Jell-O shots at participating locations and $5 Jameson shots at any location, but not during the St. Pat’s parade at the Snuffer’s on Greenville. Now through March 17.

    Sprinkles
    St Patrick’s Day Shamrock Cupcakes have a chocolate cake, studded with mint dark chocolate M&M’s, and green mint frosting. Available through March 17. (If that doesn't strike your fancy, wait a day and go for their Flamin' Hot Cheetos Cupcakes, featuring vanilla cake, cored and filled with crushed Flamin Hot Cheetos, topped with white cheddar cheese frosting and finished with Flamin' Hot Cheetos crumbles, available March 18-24.)

    SusieCakes
    All three locations in Dallas, Plano, and Fort Worth are offering chocolate Guinness cupcakes topped with Irish cream buttercream; green velvet cupcakes, topped with cream cheese frosting, in regular and mini sizes; shamrock brownies topped with shamrock sprinkles; and shamrock frosted sugar cookies, individual or in a party platter of 18 cookies. Now through March 17.

    Taco Cabana
    New frozen green apple drink is made with Tito's Handmade Vodka. Available now through March 17.

    Truluck's
    Both Uptown Dallas and Southlake locations will serve a specialty cocktail called "Truluck of the Irish". Oy, but with their name, they deserve to take such liberties. The drink has Irish Whiskey, Gran Classico, lemon juice, and blood orange cordial. March 16-17.

    Richardson dessert shop Chocolate Drip lays out eye-catching treats

    A dessert shop in Richardson has become the toast of the sweets world: Called Chocolate Drip, it opened in August at 1057 S. Sherman St., in a center east of US-75 near Spring Valley Road, where it's rolling out some eye-catching chocolate treats.

    Chocolate Drip is a passion project from Mohammad Quzmar, a Palestinian-born owner who moved to Dallas four years ago and taught himself to cook through tinkering. That experimentation has translated into a constantly evolving menu, with new creations appearing whenever inspiration strikes — earning him a growing reputation as something of a modern-day Willy Wonka.

    "Chocolate is my passion. I just love being in the kitchen and creating,” he says.

    The cafe's offerings are extensive, from sweet breakfast staples like pancakes and waffles to off-menu items teased on the café’s Instagram, such as the Dubai Drip platter — an interactive fondue plate with fruit, brownies, waffles, marshmallows, to be dipped into melted chocolate and pistachio cream.

    Many of his items have the kind of eye-catching twists and table-side presentations that draw attention on Instagram, such as the cruffle (a waffle made from a croissant) topped with spaghetti-like strands of gelato, which a server extrudes through a potato ricer right before your eyes.

    Other signatures include a teddy bear made of chocolate mousse and kanafa, finished with pistachio sauce for $13.30, and crepes filled with a brownie, with pistachio and chocolate sauce for $15.

    Prices are not cheap but these are ultra-decadent items with generous portions, often meant for sharing.

    The drink list is ambitious, spanning coffee, matcha, smoothies, milkshakes, and nonalcoholic mocktails. It's obvious Quzmar is having fun, rolling out his versions of viral items like the famous s'mores hot chocolate pioneered by New York dessert shop Glace, which features a cap made of marshmallow meringue that’s torched.

    There are also a few savory offerings like egg-and-cheese crepes, a salmon croissant, and a turkey waffle. Those in the know also come to order Middle Eastern treats like salab, a creamy milk drink topped with cinnamon; and Om Ali, a sugary pudding with nuts, dried fruit, and coconut.

    Named after the Gen Z slang for “cool” or “stylish,” Drip is meant to be a hangout spot more than a quick dessert stop, Quzmar says — a place to linger over brunch, then return late night to a place that feels buzzy and fun sans alcohol.

    “Everyone who works here is either family or treated like family and everything is homemade with love," he says.
