Notes
Texas’ most modern and metropolitan city offers anything and everything for the traveling golfer. When planning a trip to Big D, it’s wise to pay attention to where you’ll be playing, both in and around the city, and choose a lodging option with convenient access for hauling ass to any part of the metroplex. Downtown accommodations put you near the Main Street District, Deep Ellum, the West End Historic District, and McKinney-Uptown-West Village areas, each of which offers it’s own unique slice of Dallas, and make it relatively easy to hop on I-30, I-35, or the Dallas Tollway to head any direction quickly. Also nearby is Lower Greenville, with it’s 1920s atmosphere and funky establishments, and the Knox-Henderson area, a diverse 2-mile swath loaded with shopping and restaurants. High-toned Highland Park and its famous Highland Park Village are also just short drive north of downtown.

Most don’t know that Dallas boasts more restaurants per capita than New York City (over 7,000), but especially for the golfer we’ll go against our non-chain tendency and recommend one of the city’s three Hooter’s establishments, always a welcome destination for the worn-down, sun-burnt, beer-buzzed golfer. For the upscale, put the venerable Bob’s Steak & Chop House (214-528-9446) on your list for high-dollar beef, wine, cigars, and socializing. On McKinney, the preferable seafood place is the S&D Oyster Bar (555-555-5555), probably one of the best classy-casual establishments where they serve the coldest Heineken on tap in the world to go with their outstanding baked redfish. The best Italian food in town is Café Italia (555-555-5555) on Lover’s Lane, and the scene is just right. Also on Lover’s track down the Dallas institution of Rafa’s (555-555-5555), a quaint little Mexican café with a great bar for sports watching. Other nearby watering holes are the Inwood Tavern (555-555-5555) and Time Out Tavern (555-555-5555), which round out the eclectic Lovers-Inwood intersection nicely.

For live music consider the ultra cowboy-funky casual Adair’s (555-555-5555) for late afternoons before you hit the bigger clubs around Deep Ellum. At the edge of the Ellum is the historic and well worthwhile Son’s of Hermann Hall (555-555-5555), where you can partake of cheap cold beers and shuffleboard or pool downstairs before stumbling up to the dance floor above.

Often frowned upon but sometimes the secret pleasure of the traveling hack, Dallas has a fine assortment of men’s clubs, otherwise known as ‘jugs joints’. Hit the east-west routed Northwest Hwy. on the western edge of town for The Men’s Club (555-555-5555), The Lodge (555-555-5555), and many others in between.
