Delicious Discoveries: The Best Dishes in Dallas This March
March may have marked the beginning of spring, but in Dallas, it also brought an abundance of culinary delights to share. From indulgent burgers to inventive crudos and a unique twist on classic brunch favorites, this month revealed dishes that not only satisfy cravings but also tell the vibrant story of Dallas dining. Whether you're a longtime resident or just visiting, these are the must-try meals this month.
The Pulled Pork Sandwich: A Hidden Gem
At Brisket Rules in the Exchange Food Hall, diners discovered a pulled pork sandwich that defies expectations. Unlike typical barbecue spots that center around brisket, this dish stood out as a crowd favorite. Smoked daily, the pork is served Carolinas-style along with a smoky ancho chipotle sauce and bright, crunchy slaw. It's no wonder the local vendor consultant voted it the top dish—it's smoky, spicy, and simply irresistible. Pair it with their rich macaroni and cheese, and you have a meal fit for any budget-friendly foodie.
Crudo Takes Center Stage
For those searching for something extraordinary, the crudos at The Charles are not to be missed. Chef Chuy experiments with bold, unexpected flavors that harmonize beautifully, like his off-menu delicacies featuring kingfish dressed in black squid ink and garlic. This gustatory masterpiece is enhanced by the tart citrus of oranges, making it an ideal example of seasonal dining. For an added layer of pleasure, diners can sit at the bar, enjoy a spritz, and watch the culinary magic unfold.
French-Inspired Chicken and Waffles
Brunch enthusiasts should hurry to try the new offering at Le PasSage: chicken and waffles reimagined with a delightful fusion of French techniques and South Asian flavors. This dish showcases house-made five-spice chicken, which is crispy yet tender, served alongside sweet and spicy hot honey syrup and pickled vegetables for a fresh crunch. Complementing the meal is the ube lemonade—a refreshing lavender-hued beverage that perfectly balances the meal’s richness.
The Pimento Burger You Can’t Forget
The reputation of Knife, despite changes in its management, continues to thrive with its standout Pimento Burger. Topped with warm pimento cheese and caramelized onions, this burger is an indulgent reminder of why Dallas is becoming a South’s culinary powerhouse. Although chef John Tesar may no longer curate the menu, this burger maintains its quality and remains a must-try before the restaurant’s eventual closing.
