Things to do
See what Abby and Calvin’s favorite things are in and around Dallas
If it is up to Abby…
-
Jeni’s Ice Cream
Our favorite treat is Jeni’s Ice Cream. Anytime, Calvin or I have a bet - the loser has to buy the ice cream that night.
Sadly, the Jeni's next to the hotel - but, it has been replaced by a Van Leeuwen Ice Cream Shop and it is just as yummy!
-
If you’re looking for a great vibe and some amazing Mexican, look no further than Vidorra.
If you’re looking for a Texas vibe, be sure to check out Dot’s Hop House & Cocktail Courtyard.
Both are a short walk from our hotel.

The Stockyards
Head over to The Stockyards in Fort Worth and embrace the true spirit of Texas. Get yourself a pair of boots, pose with the long horns and enjoy a burger at Love Shack!
The Stockyards are approx. a 45 minute drive from our Hotel.

Look no further than, Velvet Taco! There is one directly across our hotel!
My favorite is the 'spicy tikka chicken'
Calvin's favorite is the 'slow-roasted angus brisket'

Our hotel is located in Deep Ellum, a cute neighborhood right outside downtown Dallas. Deep Ellum is very similar to Houston, Heights - where we live now. You can find some of our favorite food, shopping and activities right outside of our hotel. We hope everyone has an opportunity to explore the area.
