Fort Worth is exploding
Mexican Inn on 8th is the tits-Camp Bowie location sucks. Love me some Mexico Real. Bluebird won't be the same without Robert Ely and never went to the defunct Helen's. Wouldn't be the Showdown if it was anything but a shit show. Missing the late Peter Plenk who was a friend.

Good doggo Sandi. Sorry for your loss-they steal our hearts and leave us wanting more.

Netflix Recommendations
Spent the afternoon watching both episodes of Bill Russell:Legend and highly recommend it. Having grown up watching the Russell/Chamberlain rivalry, it was really well done blending historical footage/commentary of their games, interviews with stars from the 60's through today, and a remarkable telling of Russell's life off the court using his voice to address whatever he thought was right.

Haven't had zavala or brix but do love Panther City, especially the ribs.

Haven't been to 8th avenue and likely won't bother based on your review. Arlington location has been solid every visit.

Agree. Took a friend of ours to celebrate her PhD and this place has it going on. Atmosphere, 5* service, and a true interior Mexican menu that has options that keep me going back regularly.

Binged season 1 of Truth Be Told on Apple+. Aaron Paul and Octavia Spencer are seriously outstanding as is the supporting cast.

The ramp is a pain but the real problem is sitting on the bridge on BI where two turn lanes exist. After turning left there is always some a$$hole in the right lane who cuts over in front of the left lane that is merging causing a back up or worse, a wreck. And having to yield on the ramp entering westbound I-20 when the lane is jammed up is truly one of the most remarkable failed engineering feats in TXDOT history.

Says all you need to say without saying a word. Doggos are the best.

The movie you just watched
Went to see two Oscar nominated shows in the last two weeks: The Whale-Brendan Gleeson is likely to win Best Actor, but JEBUS, this was a hard watch. The special effects used to make him look 600 lbs will probably take an Oscar too. The Banshees of Inisherin-Collin Farrell & Brendan Gleeson are great, but supporting actor nominee Barry Keoghan was OUTSTANDING and should win a statue imho.

I agree, but the chocolate pie with warm filling is simply too hard to resist. God I hope this FW gem never goes away like so many have.

Top three imho: 1. Goldee's-definitely deserved the #1 ranking in Tx Monthly, but prepare to stand in LONG lines if you arrive after 8am. Brisket beyond compare. 2. Panthercity Barbecue-now has a building and outstanding in brisket, ribs, sausage. 3. Hurtado-recently opened on 8th avenue in FW, but have only been to Arlington location on Division. Honorable mention: Heim on White Settlement-better service, parking, and overall quality of product than their Magnolia location.

Learned a valuable yet painfully expensive lesson just a moment ago. Ate breakfast at Dixie House on Hulen and the wife reminded that we needed to get a pie for the New Year meal we are serving with friends tomorrow. The chocolate pie in the case looked promising, so had that added to breakfast bill. The total was $92.07, which seemed a little steep, so I asked for a receipt. Turns out, the pie was $39.00 . The prices for a whole pie are not posted and for good reason. Moral of the story, COSTCO is your friend and doesn't have desserts for *$&%^#^#%@%%$^ dollars!
