Dallas (Part I)

Oh, Dallas.  I'll give you credit for some decent BBQ in a decent Farmer's Market, the original Neiman Marcus, being the hometown of a solid friend whose wedding I attended last weekend (though he lives in Hong Kong by way of London, Boston, and New York - and those are the cities that I know of), and...well, that's about it.  Unfortunately, despite these things, you are still tainted by a big state fair (not a big fan of fairs), way too much football, country music, rodeos, the misrepresentation that Whataburger is better than In-n-Out (lies!), and the assassination of JFK, among other things.

Some photos of the good Dallas:

Tasty BBQ (brisket was winner) from Pecan Lodge...

In the Farmer's Market with giant (and abnormally bright) fruit and veggies.
