Sissy’s Southern, Opens Arms and Doors

Blog· Food and Drinks

After attending a media luncheon yesterday, I reckon Lisa Garza’s gem ‘Sissy’s Southern Country Kitchen’ will be like sweet molasses glue to the Dallas dining scene.  The spacious sunlit, climate-controlled patio could serve as the setting for your new favorite brunch spot, as the gleaming white wooden accents lend themselves to a ‘time stands still’ state of mind.

The main dining parlor is preppy and welcoming. The long bar is outfitted with glass jugs filled with Sissy’s sinful Belvedere tea bar cocktails and a seat for you and yours to enjoy some low country eats. And eat we did on this glorious afternoon filled with dish after dish from the collaborative minds of Lisa Garza and Jeffery Hobbs down home memory lane. With crowd pleasers like Angel Biscuits with a spread trio (pimento based, ham salad and a pickled chow chow), Deviled eggs with tobiko caviar and Pickled Gulf Shrimp…Sissy’s starters are a bang. That’s after you get your hands on one of their hand crafted tea cocktails or Tequila Sipper with heavy lemongrass and hibiscus influences.  While you peruse the family style menu, get your hands on some Low Country Gumbo or Sissy’s soon-to-be-famous Grandmas Layered Salad…Sissy’s is like a family picnic from your dreams where everyone knows how to cook and those tacky family matching outfits get a country couture upgrade.

Having spent time during her childhood in Memphis, Garza wanted to bring those southern flavors to a fun dining experience for Dallas diners to enjoy and indulge no matter what day. The fried chicken knocked me on my butt, with a tangy buttermilk soaked base and a crispy buttery pressure fried coating…you just can’t skip. Other mains include Beef Short Ribs, Obligatory Shrimp and Grits with Tasso ham and Pan Seared Sea Bass. Share some Squash Puppies, collard green confit or sweet butter whipped potatoes and your sure to make friends, better ones.

After a hearty southern meal you couldn’t possibly have room for dessert right? Wrong.  Order the ‘Better than sex chocolate cake’ of Bourbon Bread Pudding. Dreams come true, and between Lisa and Hobbs…it’s a beautiful match.

Sissy’s opens for business this Monday February 27th for dinner and coming soon will be serving brunch 6 DAYS A WEEK.

One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesse One of my favorite things about 2020.... businesses adapting and making things work! I was recently introduced to @savageburritos and I'm in love.  Savage Burritos is the love child of Uncle Julios so it you like UJ, you'll love Savage.  They are a delivery only service offering burritos and bowls from select Uncle Julio kitchens in DFW. We ordered a variety of items from burritos, bowls, queso and more. Every single item was bursting with flavor. If you like spicy,  I highly recommend the Nashville Hot Chicken Burrito. 🔥 Don't forget to add on a Margarita pop - nothing beats alcohol and Mexican food delivered straight to your door!

I know this year has dragged on and on for many pe I know this year has dragged on and on for many people but it has flown by to me. I'm 100% sure it has something to do with welcoming Myles into this world during the height of a pandemic and keeping a toddler alive at the same time.  I can't wait for Christmas morning to make memories with my little family (even though Christmas shopping isn't complete and I haven't even thought about wrapping presents). It will all fall in to place, it always does. We didn't attend our favorite Christmas events this year or get pictures with Santa so this random Santa picture will do and I'm 100% happy with it.  If this year has taught you anything,  let it be finding the joy in the little things ❤
The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Althoug The holidays are quickly approaching! 🎄 Although things might be a bit different this season, we're still enjoying some of our favorite foods and traditions. This year we're incorporating ordering family meal kits from @chuysrestaurant for not only my family but extended family that we might not be able to hang with this holiday.  It's a simple way to spread the joy with loved ones, eat delicious food and not forget the reason for the season.  #ad #nachoaverageholiday
Family pictures are always so much fun.... this ye Family pictures are always so much fun.... this year we got to attempt it twice thanks to sweet Bryce.  Thankfully the second time around he cooperated. As painful as they may be,  I'm so glad we get these done every year. I love looking back at them and see how much we've all changed and how much the kids have grown!
Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We Can y'all believe the end of the year is here? We got our family pictures back and they look great other than the fact that Bryce decided not to participate. We got one shot with my entire family and Bryce is off to the side playing in poison ivy. 🤦‍♀️

I wanted to send a quick thank you for all the birthday love yesterday! Birthdays are not my favorite day but it was nice to hear from so many people. Here's to another year around the sun ❤
This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city r This weekend we ventured to @kidzaniausa, a city ran completely by kids. Your child gets to fully immerse themselves into role playing any job they can imagine. From checking animals at the veterinarian, putting out fires as a firefighter,  flying planes in an simulator, creating their own personal logo with Bic, or being a weatherman at WFAA - the options are endless! Kidzania activities are for ages 4 and up.

We felt very comfortable inside with their safety protocols. Temperatures were checked before entering.  Everybody ages 4 and up must wear a mask.  Hand sanitizer was readily available throughout the entire space.  If you're looking for a fun outlet for your child to explore, check it out!
