I do agree with Chow Hound about the Waygu Lasagna - I have had it, and it is pretty darn good. However, I cannot agree that villa o is an all-around 5 star - the other dishes I have had there are just so-so at best, and certainly not worth the praise given in this review.

this is great news! It is a wonderful opportunity for families and "kids of all ages" to explore the Dallas and Fort Worth museums this summer!

I spent a good portion of my life living in Europe and the grocery stores in all the major cities around Europe have ALWAYS charged for any bags (paper or plastic) and it works. Trust me - once you start paying for them, you will remember to carry that reusable tote with you. What is the big deal about that anyway? Stop being so lazy! Personally, I always keep at least two in my car so if I make an "unplanned" stop at the grocery store I always have some. If you put a couple in your car and keep a couple extra in your house you will be fine. Its not that much trouble.

If you are going to St Patty's day on Lower Greenville - take the DART. There are special buses to/from lower greenville all day long that leave from Mockingbird station. It is much more convenient and you don't have to worry about parking at all.

As someone who grew up their whole life in the "bubble" of highland park - I can say that there really are a lot of normal, down to earth people there. And as texrunner pointed out - many of them appreciate what they have and also try to give back to the rest of the community. There are of course the "snobby aristocratic types" that everyone loves to talk about, but stereotypes do not cover everyone. I feel like a lot of the negative comments here come from jealousy, frankly, and I guarantee that any one of you would choose to live in HP if you could afford it. My family moved there for the great school district, the safety, the close proximity to the downtown arts district, and the community - not for the fancy zip code or to impress people. We grew up with a family of 3 kids in a house that is the same size as many in the M streets, and way smaller than most of the new Frisco/Plano mansions. I think this article is very well-written and points out the fact that this downturn is affecting everyone, although in different ways. As mentioned - many of these people fund the hospitals and donate the libraries that the rest of Dallas uses to better their lives. So before you make judgements, take the information for what it is and realize that while everyone's socio-economic situation is different, we still have many things in common.
