We are so excited to be part of the food tour in Uptown Dallas. It’s about time that Dallas had a food tour. There are so many great restaurants in Uptown, this is a great way to try a bunch at once. Jodi and her team have organized the tour to a T. You shouldn’t miss it, fun, food and you can burn off everything you eat walking the tour.
