Somehow made it through the post-T-giving-holiday travel circus today and was only 1/2 an hour later than scheduled. Low ceilings and high traffic backed things up in Charlotte and BWI. I also had the great privilege of being the monkey in the middle of a family returning from a vacation in the Caribbean. Add in the fact that the parents spent much of the time bickering with each other... *sigh*
Tonight I dined at a Chevy's for the first and last time. We wanted something to eat before getting to the hotel and Chevy's was just a block away. I'm guessing that the odd tasting salsa, broccoli-flavored chili con queso, and nasty smoked chipotle chicken enchiladas would be as nasty at any other restaurant in the chain. I no longer have any need to dine again at a Chevy's. BLAH!
Need to spend the next hour reviewing the participant list for tomorrow's class and try to soothe myself to sleep for a full night of rest.

As far as places to eat in Dallas - I can easily come up with an itinerary focused solely on eating.
1. Truluck's (http://www.trulucks.com/dallas_location.asp) - I will go there just for the sake of ordering their cream of poblano pepper soup. I wish they offered FedEx ordering; I'd buy the soup by the bucket.
2. Taco Y Mas (at the bottom of Lower Greenville at the intersection of Greenville and Ross) - the best tacos in town are at this tiny walk-up taco stand!
3. Pietro's (http://www.google.com/local?hl=en&hs=VkW&lr=&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&q=pietro%27s&near=Dallas,+TX&sa=X&oi=locald&radius=0.0&latlng=32783333,-96800000,2629544415077195855) (also in Lower Greenville) - Fantastic, Italian family restaurant that's a block from the first place I lived in Dallas. The price isn't cheap, but I'll gladly pay it over any trip to the Olive Garden.
4. Bread Winners (http://www.breadwinnerscafe.com/) - THE BEST PLACE FOR BREAKFAST! This superb bakery and restaurant is at the top of my wife's list.
5. All chain restaurants that I miss: Roly Poly wraps, California Pizza Kitchen, PF Chang's, and the Cheesecake Factory immediately come to mind.

Thanks for the suggestions. I've been wanting to try Truluck's and that might be where the Mrs and I go for our anniversary next year. :)>
