    Dallas diners who feel there is never enough cheese have a new destination: an artisan cheese and provisions shop called The Salty Cow, newly opened in Lewisville.

    The Salty Cow specializes in locally sourced gourmet cheeses; meats such as prosciutto, jamón serrano, salami and pâté; and provisions such as dried fruits, spreads, oils, crackers, coffees, and teas.

    Also on the menu: gourmet popcorn from Hico Popcorn Works in flavors such as toffee, chipotle ranch, and dill pickle; and sweets from Wiseman House Chocolates, also located in Hico.

    The Salty Cow is located at 2540 King Arthur Blvd. in Lewisville, one of the newest small local businesses to open at the in the Castle Hills Village Shops, located within the master-planned Castle Hills community.

    In addition to selling cheeses and other items individually, they also offer varied cheese and charcuterie boards, with tailored platters and gift baskets for every occasion. The "Best of Texas" platter, for example, features four cheeses and two meats including Bosque Blue cheese, sheep gouda, and jalapeno cheddar from the Veldhuizen Family Farm in Dublin, Texas.

    The Salty Cow has partnered with TKO Libations, a new craft brewery at the Castle Hills Village Shops, to offer a beer and cheese pairing menu specifically for TKO customers. Guests visiting TKO Libations can hop across the Plaza for a fromager d’affinois to complement TKO's IPA, breakfast stout, and tart blonde beers.

    The shop will also offer fun and tasty cheese courses in the future as well as host private events.

    The concept was created by husband-and-wife Jennifer Gentry and Harold Gonzalez, who lamented the lack of specialty cheese shops in that area.

    Originally from New York, the couple are now Castle Hills residents and are excited to offer their products and expertise to neighbors and those from outside the community.

    "This was the perfect place for our home and our shop," Jennifer says in a release. "Also, there are a LOT of people here who love cheese, charcuterie, and chocolate!"

    Castle Hills Village Shops is a neighborhood dining and events destination offering culinary variety, local flavor, conveniences and seasonal events to the Castle Hills community and beyond.

    In addition to The Salty Cow and TKO Libations, retailers include pizzeria PI.E 3.14 Everyday Eatery, taqueria T.B.D. Kitchen, susheria Kanzi Sushi & Hibachi, Z's Wok, and Sophia’s Kitchen, specializing in coffee, tea, and pastries.

    Castle Hills is a 2,800-acre master-planned community near SH 121 and Josey Lane in Lewisville with single-family homes, golf villas, townhomes, condos, and estate homes, priced from the $170s to $2.5 million and up. Castle Hills is also home to Discovery at The Realm, an urban-inspired collection of apartment homes within a walkable community, including programming, activities and amenities.

    Pie News

    White Rhino Coffee acquires Dallas bakery chain Emporium Pies

    A Dallas pie company has a new boss: Emporium Pies, a small chain of pie shops founded in 2012, has been acquired by White Rhino Coffee, the Dallas-born coffee company known for its community-driven cafés and craft-focused approach.

    Emporium Pie owners and sisters Landon Perdue, Jen Abohosh, and Addie Roberts say in a release that the transition reflects a natural alignment in values.

    "Part of our shared mission is hospitality and giving people a reason to celebrate," Roberts says. "We love the team, who I’ll continue working alongside, and I’m excited for this next chapter together. There’s something about dessert that brings people joy in a way nothing else can, and we’re thrilled to see that legacy carried forward."

    Emporium began as a small operation selling pies from a 1930s bungalow in Bishop Arts. A second location opened in McKinney in 2013, followed by Deep Ellum which opened in 2016, and Fort Worth which opened in 2021, for a total of four shops. This is the second time the chain has changed hands; the original founders sold the company in 2022.

    White Rhino was founded in 2007 and currently has 12 locations, the most recent being a location at Cypress Waters, inside a conference room, which opened in 2025.

    “Emporium Pies has built an extraordinary legacy,” said Sara Escamilla, CEO of White Rhino Coffee. “Their products are consistently excellent, impeccably crafted, and beloved. Every pie is made with the highest quality ingredients. To be able to support and grow a concept of this caliber is an honor.”

    The bakers and Addie Roberts will remain on staff, ensuring that the recipes remain unchanged. While the businesses will operate as usual for now, White Rhino Coffee plans to explore expanding Emporium Pies’ footprint across the Dallas–Fort Worth area.

    They'll also introduce collaborations and menu integrations such as signature pie-and-coffee pairings.

    “For now, it simply means coffee and pie - two of life’s best comforts - can be enjoyed across both brands,” Escamilla says.
