    Restaurant review: The Common Table in Dallas

    Thanks, luniz, good point. Really all we were trying to say with our not-so-clever turn of phrase is that the sandwich is tasty enough to be an every day menu item but obviously it's not for a good reason. So remember, kids, don't eat seafood out of season and never, ever try the boiled shrimp at an all-you-can-eat buffet! [Cue "The More You Know" music]

    Parents name their new baby "Baylor" after hospital

    It's a good thing he wasn't born at Medical City ;)

    Uncle Barky says that before calling for Wade Phillips' firing, Randy Galloway should look in the mirror, since he gets whupped by The Ticket daily.

    And I've never been more happy to be wrong...

    Good stuff from Uncle Barky. I still think the Boys miss the playoffs and Wade gets the boot soon thereafter. Then I'll miss Fake Wade most of all!

    PARK Restaurant on Henderson in Dallas opens Bar Celine in back of building

    I guess this soft opened a little while ago because we hung out there while waiting for our tables when we ate at PARK a couple of weeks ago. I liked the atmosphere a lot.

    Who's Who Burgers (Closed)

    The map above isn't centered on the right location.

    Free your mind, and the rest will follow

    I noticed it earlier with the movie page for "Up in the Air" and the problem is still there. Same thing with any of the theater pages I click on after clicking the "Find a Movie Showtime" button (I clicked on AMC Northpark, Firewheel and Highland Village specifically).

    Mike, I've noticed that the movie and movie theater pages don't show the showtimes at particular theaters. I think this is a glitch because there is a heading for "Showtimes" on these pages and a bar displaying the hours and days but no theaters or movie showing times appear below that. Could this be a browser issue? I'm using the latest version of IE.

    I tried it again and it works now.

    It's at home so I'll check again tonight, but it gave an error message and wouldn't open when I tried it over the weekend.

    Has the mobile app been updated as part of the relaunch? I can't get it to work now on my iPhone.

    Launching it softly, with this post

    Much better, thanks Mike! One other minor thing I've noticed is when I'm doing a restaurant search and I've already narrowed by cuisine, it tends to kick me back to the larger cuisine group (e.g. from Indian to Asian) when I then click to sort by distance. I can then go back and narrow it to the specific cuisine again without losing the distance sort so it's not a big deal but I thought you'd want to know about it.

    Cool, Mike, thanks. On the positive side, I'm a big fan of the new video window and the audio player (maybe that isn't new but I just discovered it with the relaunch). Is it at all possible to have the video window expand out into a larger window? Your demo video, which I thought was very informative from an audio standpoint, was also an exercise in eye-squinting frustration from a video standpoint on my computer. I'm sure this isn't an easy fix, but I'm probably not the only one who feels this way.

    And, one more bit of constructive feedback, add me to the camp of people who prefer to see the last 5 comments rather than just the last 2. Always like to see what everyone else is buzzing about.

    Overall, I like how related stories and Outbursts seem to be more pervasively incorporated into the hub pages and the various stories I've clicked on. I enjoy the free associate aspect of it a lot.

    I really like a lot of the new functionality on the new site, but while we're on the topic of favorites, how come a my favorites list appears on the Daily You page (on the tab you show above), the Music page, the Arts page (although it doesn't appear to be listing my favorites on that page) and the Dining page (although it only lists my fav retaurants, not fav restaurant events that are listed on the other pages) but not on the Events page itself?

    Also, it seems a lot more intuitive to me that my "Favorite Users' Activity" tab would be called just that or shortened to "Favorites' Activity" or maybe "Favs' Activity" instead of "Recently" which isn't at all obvious to me.

    Congrats to all of you for your hard work. I'm still getting used to the new look but I'm liking it more and more. Any way those pop up ads can go away?

    I think that was a good call, Mike. Looking forward to the revamp!

    Interesting. I didn't know there was one on Yale.

    Saturday's opening preview of Samar Restaurant by Stephan Pyles was one of those nights

    So when does this place finally open for real?
