Sarah Snow was named Chef of the Year by the 2015 Taste Makers Awards. She has spent time in some great Dallas kitchens — Common Table, Pyramid Restaurant, Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek, Bijoux — but now she's manning the stove at The Grape, where she churns out, among other things, the special hand-made pastas for which she's known.

Drinks & Nightlife
The name comes from The Smiths' last album (Strangeways, Here We Come). Owners Eric Sanchez and his sister Rosie have created one amazing beer bar. You’ll notice an eclectic crowd here: some folks fresh out of work in suits and ties, others pierced and inked, but all gathered around the long, cement bar, watching Rosie hurriedly move back and forth, changing the list on the huge blackboard of more 40 rotating drafts. No two days in Strangeways are the same.
