Star Karaoke

11311 N Stemmons Fwy
Dallas, TX 75229

Francesca L. writes: I like Star just for the little snack tray of shrimp chips, peanuts, ojingeochae (dried squid), and pretzels they give you. I don't think they have very many really big rooms and the bathrooms are gross, plus there is nowhere to loiter and they don't…

Urban Outfitters

Penguin

Northpark Center Mall, Ste 2244
Dallas, TX 75225

Eric W. writes: Something about the Penguin line is very "classic American" to me which means absolutely nothing really. I guess though they want to also be on the cutting edge without being daring . . . so that's not really the cutting edge as much as it is the…

Kendra M. writes: This Starbucks is the same as any other.  Clean, semi cozy yet corporate feel.  Staff is friendly, and is quiet enough to read a good book inside when you can't stand the thought of being in the heat.  When the temps are bearable, meet up with a…

Dickey's Barbecue Pits

Dallas Ft. Worth International Airport
Terminal C, Near C6
Dallas, TX 75261

Mark D. writes: Not a bad place to grab some quick 'que, but it's probably not too representative of Texas BBQ.  Unfortunately you don't have too many choices in Terminal C at DFW.  I had the chicken meal deal, which wasn't too bad for $8 and came with half a…
