    Dining on the Cheap

    Dallas-Fort Worth Restaurant Week list for 2013 lacks hottest restaurants

    • FT33: taking a pass on Restaurant Week.
      Photo by Kevin Marple

    Today's the day that a few hundred tight-fisted foodies start maniacally making reservations for DFW Restaurant Week, the annual national event where you can fine dine on the cheap. Presented by Central Market, it was established 16 years ago by CBS radio 1080 KRLD (and was formerly called KRLD Restaurant Week). It's become a favorite tightwad summer dining tradition across Dallas-Fort Worth.

    Restaurants serve special three-course dinners or lunches at a set price. A portion (20 percent) goes back to either the North Texas Food Bank in Dallas or Lena Pope Home in Fort Worth. Tax, tip and drinks are billed separately.

    Prices range from $35 to $45 for dinner; lunches are $25. The official week runs from August 12-18. Some restaurants extend it to August 19-25 and August 26-September 1. Preview Week is August 9-11. Just call it the month of August already.

    As you look at this list, you may spot some notable absences — i.e., any "hip" or "cool" restaurant that has opened in the past year. Where is Oak, FT33 or Spoon? Nowhere, giving this list a bit of a dusty, same-old vibe.

    But there is no shortage of steakhouses. We count 54, a conservative tally, out of 132 restaurants total.

    Meanwhile, there are many duplicates: three Capital Grilles, three Del Frisco's, two Ferrari's Italian Villas, three Nick & Sam's, four Silver Foxes, and so on. As for The Melting Pot, can't you already eat there for $35?

    Mom-and-pop Asian chain from Austin makes Dallas debut in McKinney

    A small Asian chain from Austin has entered the Dallas market: Called Fire Bowl Cafe, it's a small chain that has opened its first DFW location in McKinney, at 4060 W. University Dr. #300, in a new shopping center west of US-75.

    Fire Bowl Cafe was founded by husband-and-wife Gigi Lee and Daniel Pao in 1996 with a focus on customizable bowls prepared in sizzling woks. They have four locations in Austin and one in Colorado.

    Bringing the concept to McKinney is Dallas-based hospitality group DLC Restaurant Holdings (Firo Pizza, Craft Pies Pizza, Desperados), according to a release.

    “We are thrilled to bring Fire Bowl Café to McKinney and introduce our unique dining experience to the wonderful community here,” says CEO Mike Daniel in a statement. “Our mission is to ensure that every customer leaves satisfied and happy, and we can’t wait to share our passion for fresh, customizable Asian cuisine with our new neighbors in North Texas."

    To give it local flavor, they've partnered with Julian Rodarte, who co-founded Beto & Son, the Mexican restaurant at Trinity Groves in west Dallas, and also served as Trinity Groves' CEO. He was briefly executive chef at COSM at Grandscape and is currently culinary director for Dee Lincoln Concepts.

    The menu has a Pei-Wei vibe, featuring a mashup of Chinese, Thai, and Vietnamese cuisines, with favorites like edamame, spring rolls, crab rangoon, pad Thai, pot stickers, and lettuce wraps.

    There are noodle and rice bowls, topped with vegetables and choice of protein; and a make-it-your-way stir-fry where you choose from proteins like chicken, beef, shrimp, or tofu, tossed in a wok with vegetables, then combine it with your choice of "carb" — noodles, brown or white rice — and a wide selection of sauces, from teriyaki to spicy peanut to classic Chinese.

    Prices are $12-$14. They do not currently serve alcohol, but have plans for it at a future date.
