Tuesday, April 13, 2010 - Hector's On Henderson

Hector's On Henderson
2929 N. Henderson
Dallas, Texas 75206

214.821.0432


This is a FANTASTIC place! I enjoyed every minute.

Of all the places we've been so far, we had the absolute BEST service here.
James was our waiter, but Hector came and took care of us himself for much of the evening!

It's a cosy little place with modern but warm decor.







Everything was fantastic right down to the drinks!

Valentina had the trout. (It was PERFECT! SOOOO good......Val)

I had the lite 7.5 oz filet..Very tasty.

We also split a side of mac and cheese and a side of cheese grits. I have to go back for both of those. The mac and cheese was a little peppery. Delicious!
I have to remember to photograph my food before I start to demolish it.. lol
Val hadn't started on hers yet though so I got a nice one.

7.5 oz Filet. It did look much lovelier than this photo. lol

Afterwards she had the Tiramisu, I had the moon pie. Which is a moon pie layered with fruit and chocolate sauce. It was huge. I had half of it for breakfast. Sugarfest.. breakfast of champions. ;)

Okey... after all the bazillions of photos I've taken of Valentina, she finally got a little camera revenge on me. Which is NOT fair because she's photogenic and I'm NOT. And most of the time she is paying me to take the photos too. lol (photogenic? I just look old and chubby...Val)




uh.. ok..


Enough already... (I love this glare!!! The Evil Niki Eye....Val)


talk to the hand...


ahhhhh......


Noooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!



lol


Nyah! lol (See? Old, tired, chubby. Yuck....Val)


Hector was really sweet and took a photo with us as we were leaving.



5 stars! (Yes, 5 stars! Hector is adorable, and this was a perfect evening! Val)


And we walked down the street and peeked in the windows of the antique shops. No goofing off at the shop though, I didn't feel very well.. allergies?



If it's weird, I'll photograph it.


Anyway you the reader were spared our late night shenannigans. ;)



Tuesday, March 9, 2010 - Gloria's Restaurant

Gloria's Restaurant
5100 Belt Line Rd. Suite 852
Addison, TX, 75254
972.387.8442


 A very nice restaurant in Addison, with lovely atmosphere. They serve El Salvadoran food, and I believe they have Salsa dancing on the weekends.





In spite of the nice atomsphere I was a little disappointed. The food was just OK. The place was loud, and totally surrounded by TVs set to every sports channel. I was expecting it to be a little less cheesy?

The chips and salsas were great, and they have good specials on margaritas and mojitos. Which is probably why most people go there.

I had the Carne Asada which was really good. It tasted like steak pizza. lol

Valentina had the Gloria's sample platter which I don't think she liked very much.
And I know we had dessert, but I don't remember what. One of the hazzards of playing catch-up!



David went a few days after we did, and he thought it was terrible..but in fairness, he ordered a salmon salad and made them change it up. lol
Salmon and lettuce by themselves.. probably not too hot.  :)

2 out of 5 stars.
