Dan Landsberg Dragonfly at Hotel ZaZa
The iPhone roams again! This time to one of the coolest spots in Dallas, Hotel ZaZa. And, it just so happens that Executive Chef Dan Landsberg has his new spring menu rolling out for breakfast, lunch and dinner at Dragonfly. Catch his tasty take on a BLT, or in this case DLT, with house cured duck instead of bacon. It’s delicious. Take a look as we salute another of the “Great Chefs of Savor Dallas”. Dan joins us for the International Grand Tasting this weekend (March 30-31) at the 8th Annual Savor Dallas.

Great Chefs of Savor Dallas–Cesar Gallegos, Stoneleigh Hotel, Bolla
Have iPhone will travel! This time we visit the kitchen of a talented young chef who moved here from San Antonio, first to help David Bull open Bolla, and then, after a stint back home, returned as executive chef of the venerable Dallas institution, The Stoneleigh Hotel. He loves to cook and is expressive with his recipes. He sees the restaurant moving into more Latin inspired dishes in the coming months. See two of Chef Cesar’s favorite dinner menu items in this edition of our on-going webisode saluting chefs who’ll be joining us at Savor Dallas. Enjoy!

Chef Lidia Bastianich and the Art of Mozzarella
World-famous Italian chef and cookbook author Lidia Bastianich recently visited her good friend and renowned cheesemaker Paula Lambert at the Mozzarella Company in Dallas. As Paula is wont to do, she got Lidia involved in a delightful hands-on session of Mozzarella making. You’re an eyewitness to the private demonstration as Jim White’s “Have iPhone Will Travel” series takes you front and center. Buon appetito!

Princi Italia Bids You Buon Appetito
You’ve had that feeling that you’re really gonna like a place (or a person) the minute you walk in the door, right? That’s how I felt about Princi Italia. Patrick Colombo’s new restaurant at Preston Road and Royal Lane is on hallowed ground for many who live in the upscale Dallas neighborhood. The very popular PoPoLo’s held sway at the intersection for many years. Well, there’s a new sheriff in town (or whatever the Italian equivalent would be). And, Patrick’s brought in the big guns with Executive Chef Kevin Ascolese (Mi Piaci, Salve!, Ferre). Generally speaking, Kevin would rather be on the slopes in Colorado, but Patrick has encouraged him to take more vacations to get his downhill runs in, and stick around Dallas to run Princi Italia. I hope he decides to stay for a long time. Kevin is one of the really good guys in the chef world. He also has some great ideas, and recipes, to share with us on the culinary plane. Judging from initial response to the casual, tasty fare at Princi Italia, and the booming business, Kevin might want to look for an indoor ski slope close to Dallas (if those still exist). He might be too busy to get back to the Rockies frequently. Our video blog series “Have iPhone Will Travel” brings you a taste of honest Italian cuisine, Colombo/Ascolese style.

Wanna See a Spicy Tomato?
Arcodoro & Pomodoro is one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Dallas. Lori and Efesio Farris have brought their family’s great Sardinian tradition to Uptown with their upscale restaurant in the Crescent Court. See our latest webisode here on a recent lunch visit. And, thanks to Liza Minnelli for the headline inspiration from her Academy Award winning performance in “The Sterile Cuckoo”.

Love seafood and fine décor? Oceanaire is for you.
An air of sophistication and always flown-in-fresh seafood are hallmarks of The Oceanaire Seafood room, located in the Westin Hotel Galleria Dallas. Long one of our favorite places for lunch or dinner, Oceanaire continues to please. Haven’t been? Jim White takes you there in his latest “Have iPhone will travel” dining webisode. Cheers! And, let us know what you think of The Oceanaire, or make other good seafood recommendations.

Chef legend Avner Samuel has found his niche with NOSH Euro Bistro. The slick Oak Lawn Euro Bistro has garnered great reviews and enjoys great crowds. The food is great. The service and prices are too. We’ll head inside for lunch and give you some news you can use from Avner about a new NOSH in Plano coming soon on this week’s “Wining and Dining” webisode.
