This may be a day late and a dollar short, but there's food! Food as far as the eye can see...
Fort Worth, TX
VTM really came through back in August when I asked for places to visit in Fort Worth. You can read through all of them here in the comments, but I've included several below for all of us to bicker over.
Rodeo Goat (2836 Bledsoe St, Fort Worth)
Chimy's (1053 Foch St, Fort Worth)
AF+B (2869 Crockett St, Fort Worth)
Live Oak (1311 Lipscomb St, Fort Worth)
Cane Rosso (815 W Magnolia Ave, Fort Worth)
Bearded Lady (1229 7th Ave, Fort Worth)
Ellerbe's (1501 W Magnolia Ave, Fort Worth)
Buffalo Brothers (3015 S University Dr, Fort Worth)
Fuzzy's (EVERYWHERE, Fort Worth)
Carshon's Deli (3133 Cleburne Rd, Fort Worth)
Angelo's BBQ (2533 White Settlement Rd, Fort Worth)
Railhead Smokehouse (2900 Montgomery St, Fort Worth)
Fred's (915 Currie St, Fort Worth)
Ol' South Pancake House (1509 S University Dr, Fort Worth)
Westside Cafe (7950 Camp Bowie W Blvd, Fort Worth)
Joe T. Garcia's Mexican Restaurant (2201 N Commerce St, Fort Worth)
Esperanza's Mexican Bakery & Cafe (Two Fort Worth Locations)
La Tortilandia Mexican Restaurant (1112 W Berry St, Fort Worth)
La Familia (841 Foch St, Fort Worth)
El Paseo (5436 Jacksboro Hwy, Fort Worth)
Kincaid's Hamburgers (Three Fort Worth Locations)
Kincaid's is the only place I've tried on this list other than the Lubbock locations of Fuzzy's & Chimy's. It's a great burger with zero fluff: just fresh beef, a simple menu, picnic tables and crinkle cut fries. I believe this burger helped me pass my P.E. exam the next day. #brainfood
