    It's all falling into place in Frisco, with the latest domino being Omni Hotels & Resorts' newest location, the Omni Frisco Hotel, located at The Star. It's now open, with 300 guest rooms, a rooftop pool, and a decorative theme that pays subtle tribute to the Dallas Cowboys. Exceptional dining and retail experiences include a branch of Neighborhood Services and a boutique named for Cowboys VP Charlotte Jones.

    Omni Hotels CEO Jim Caldwell says in a release that they're happy to finally unveil the hotel. "So much thought and effort has gone into the design and execution of this hotel and we are thrilled to have such exceptional partners in the Dallas Cowboys," he says.

    The hotel incorporates elements of the Dallas Cowboys' legacy in the room décor and throughout the hotel, as well as elements from the city of Frisco. Clean lines, layered textures, and multifunctional furniture with integrated storage make the guest rooms the new standard for modern and quality design.

    The eats
    Nick Badovinus' Neighborhood Services will be the featured dining experience, led by executive chef Richard Blankenship. The menu will include NS favorites such as meatballs, crispy asparagus, butcher's burger, meatloaf and mash, and chicken and dumplings.

    A brunch menu will debut on August 25, with avocado toast, granola and yogurt, quinoa bowl, and churro French toast. Blankenship will also oversee the food at the Edge Bar, the hotel's rooftop pool bar and grill, along with in-room dining, banquets, and catering.

    The Edge Bar menu will feature seasonal items and culinary partnerships with the Omni Frisco Hotel. We are talking sponsorships, baby. For example, the menu features food and drink options that incorporate the hotel's seasonal partner, Avocados From Mexico.

    The hotel's Lobby Bar will feature wines chosen by master sommelier Drew Hendricks, which can be partnered with cheeses from Dallas specialty store Molto Formaggio. A cheese cart will be a daily staple, with cheeses from France, Italy, California, and Texas. Cheese boards can also be paired with charcuterie.

    The shopping
    In addition to the food and beverage program, Omni Frisco will offer a unique retail experience with the Charlotte Jones Collection. Named after Dallas Cowboys executive vice president and chief brand officer Charlotte Jones Anderson, the luxury retail outpost will feature clothing, jewelry, and goods for men, women, children, and the home, including the Dallas Cowboys throw blankets found in the hotel rooms. Some merchandise will be branded in shades of Cowboys blue and silver.

    Charlotte Jones Collection will sell Dallas Cowboys merchandise, exclusive items from Dallas-area artists, snacks, drinks, and sundries. The boutique aims to offer both fashion and home finds, plus souvenirs.

    But there's more. Charlotte Jones Collection will also sell gifts such as Hublot watches, Alexis Bittar jewelry, Edie Parker clutches, plus fashion and goods from Kendra Scott, Peter Millar, Paige Denim by Equipment, Essie, Jack Black, Sugarfina, and Swell. Much, much stuff.

    Saucy Summer

    Loro Asian Smokehouse bottles fan-favorite sauces for summer in Dallas

    This lively salsa can now dress up dishes at home.

    You can't bottle famed Texas pitmaster Aaron Franklin's meat-smoking skills, but you can bottle the sauce at Loro, his popular Asian Smokehouse founded with Uchi chef Tyson Cole. Three of the restaurant's signature sauces will be available for a limited time this summer, starting June 21 and ending July 5.

    A press release promises "bold, smoke-kissed flavors" on offer during the restaurant's "Saucy Summer" event. Guests can pick them up from all Loro locations across Texas. In Dallas, that means 1812 North Haskell Ave. in East Dallas and 14999 Montfort Dr. in Addison. There are also locations in Austin and Houston.

    Fans of Loro probably already know these flavors from dipping wonton chips and slathering fried chicken sandwiches.

    The three sauces for sale are:

    • Tamarind BBQ: A sweet sauce that's "a little wild" thanks to spicy and fruity flavors. Ingredients include tamarind, honey, soy, pineapple, Thai sriracha, mesquite, and nam tok seasoning — usually a mix of lime, chili flakes, and other standard seasonings like salt and sugar. This one is recommended for brisket, grilled chicken, or brushing ribs in the last five minutes of cooking.
    • Loro Hot Sauce: Described as "buttery" and "chili-forward." It's also made with Thai sriracha and augmented with dried Thai chili flakes, vinegar, butter, and tallow. The recipe was made with eggs, tacos, fried rice, wings, sandwiches, and spicy spreads in mind.
    • Green Chili Salsa and Marinade: Be careful with this spicy sauce, which has a "sneaky heat." The overall tone is bright and herbal thanks to green tomato, cilantro, garlic, lime, and ginger, with soybean paste and Thai chili adding oomph. This sauce is great for marinating chicken or shrimp, but it can also be poured right on top of tacos and rice bowls or used to finish veggies and grilled fish.

    Each sauce sells for $8, but shoppers can bundle three of them for $20.

    Purchases can be made for dine-in or takeout via Toast. Deliveries are available via Door Dash and Uber Eats while the promotion is running. To stay on top of stock, only a certain number of sauces will be sold each day.

    Whether or not guests purchase a sauce, they can use the code SAUCYSUMMER to take $10 off to-go orders placed July 3 and 4.
