Thoughts on Bishop Arts District

Last night, my husband took me out to dinner and I took him out to a movie. He read about this BBQ place called Lockhart Smokehouse.  He was very excited because he is the quintessential "beef and potatoes" man, minus the potatoes!! As soon as we got there, they asked if we wanted to try "smoked bologna". I haven't like bologna, smoked or otherwise, since like 4th grade, so I politely decline, but my husband willingly accepted. This place was pretty cool. It was mot a large place, and from the outside it kinda looked like a hole in the wall. There was no parking (ok, maybe like 7 spots off to the side) and my expectations were pretty low. That being said, I was pretty impressed with what we got. They serve meat by 1/2 pounds, so we got 1/2 pound of brisket and 1/2 pound of ribs. The 1/2 pound of ribs was....TWO!!! They were quite large. So we each had a rib, and we split the brisket. They don't believe in forks or sauces, but allow you to bring your own if you want. If you get a chance, you should check it out! After eating, we strolled around the neighborhood streets and it was a pretty cool little place. It was hard to believe it's actually part of Oak Cliff. Below are some pics of things we saw while there!
