Here Are The 10 Dishes You Have To Eat In Dallas – Fort Worth Before You Die
The Dallas – Fort Worth area is a food utopia for all things delicious. With so many choices, it’s hard to narrow down what you want to eat, but here are 10 local favorites, including the bizarre, the ethnic, the spicy, and the oh-so-big servings!
Just announced as the best tasting savory AND most creative food item for the 2017 state fair is the Funnel Cake Bacon Queso Burger by Tom Grace. This winner is a must-try food item for all fair foodies at designated concession stands at the fair.
Having a Fletcher's corny dog is a state fair requirement. Unlike the choice awards, this is a permanent staple. You now have a choice between regular and a jalapeno cheese version, and adding ketchup or mustard (or both) is like the icing on a cake. Fun fact: About 650,000 corny dogs are sold at the fair each year!
From the cute building outside to its creative and original names for their pies, like the "Drunken Nut" pictured above, you just know you have found a slice of heaven! The pies here are sold by the slice and the choices change by season! This scrumptious dessert shop can be found in the Bishop Arts District at 314 N. Bishop Ave. in Dallas.
You simply MUST come for the brisket tacos here--it would be a crime not to. The ambiance and prices are worthy of a mention as well. Find Manny's Uptown at 3521 Oak Grove Rd., 75204.

This two-foot monstrosity is stuff of legends. It weighs three pounds and consists of a hot dog smothered in chili, nacho cheese, caramelized onions, and jalapeños on top of a massive potato bun. The $26 price tag also includes a side of fries (if the dog alone doesn't kill you first). Bring a friend (or four) to help you devour this terrifyingly tasty treat. The ballpark is at 1000 Ballpark Way in Arlington, 76011.
Don't make the mistake of thinking all guacamole is created the same. The ONLY way to eat it is when it is made tableside, and when you choose your ingredients and right amount of spice!
Anamia's Tex-Mex does it right, with big-enough-to-share servings of custom guacamole. There are several locations across the Dallas - Fort Worth area to make the experience easy!
This is the most popular item here is often touted as the best steak in Dallas - Fort Worth. The Steak and Cake is an 8-ounce filet topped with a half-pound crab cake! The restaurant is at 5000 Beltline Rd. #775 in Dallas, 75254.

This family-owned and operated business really knows how to please its barbecue fans. Pit masters serve you your choice of food straight from the fire. Fan favorites are the brisket, hand cut ribeye, and pork chop, so essentially anything served here is worthy enough to be called a Texas winner.
