2010 | Best Babysitter For Your Teenager

Your kid just turned 13 going on 16, and he or she walks 20 feet in front of you in the mall, if still willing to be with you at all. The Xbox will keep them down on the farm for a while, but once the hormones begin to rage--and they do younger than ever before--your Max or Grant or Peyton or Mia will want to go one place and only one place: the mall. It's a silly suburban rite of passage, allowing your kids to go to the mall by themselves, and nowhere do parents seem to trust that... More »
2009 | Best Mall Food

This is not to say that, in our lives, we haven't enjoyed our fair share of greasy slices from Sbarro and cups of Orange Julius. Just saying that, though the mall may be the quintessential high-schooler hangout, those of us who are aged do crave food slightly more sophisticated than Cinnabon (sorry, Cinnabon). NorthPark, which for so long resisted the mall "food court," finally gave in and brought us an "international food plaza" when they built their addition in 2006. Of course, you still... More »
2008 | Best City Within the City

In recent months, and certainly since the 2006 expansion of Ray Nasher's white-brick mall, we've discovered there is no such thing as a quick trip to NorthPark. A pit stop in, oh, the Apple store or the Gap turns into a long morning that morphs into an entire day, as suddenly the kiddo discovers the computer in the Dallas Public Library's Bookmarks or the outside garden, which allows for an extended game of tag-and-tackle; then, maybe, the urge to see a movie sets in, but not before grabbing...

2007 | Best Afternoon Stroll

This is Dallas, and we're a material bunch. Frankly, with the right attitude, there's no shame in that. Take for instance the need for a little air-conditioned walking space. NorthPark Center is the finest of the mall walks. Covered parking is nearly always available, and thanks to recent mall additions, walkers get a perfect lap. Natural light beams in through periodic skylights, beautiful wearables and trinkets abound for extensive eyeballing (no wallet required for that), people-watching... More »

The Art Of Community

By Jamie Laughlin | Thu, March 22, 2012

Dallas supports the arts consistently, lovingly and vibrantly. The amount of organizations that exist solely to enhance our community’s ongoing education in the poetic visual and auditory nature of the universe can rival just about any other in th... More »
Tomorrow at NorthPark, a Cupcake War

By foodbitch | Fri, January 20, 2012

It's no secret I love a good cupcake. So last time I was at NorthPark center, I noticed some hard-to-miss signage promoting something called a Cupcake War. I took a photo (pictured) so I wouldn't forg... More »
The Master List: The Best Things to Do in Dallas This Weekend, January 20-22

By Elizabeth Bair | Fri, January 20, 2012

No bride likes to get gussied up for her wedding rehearsal and arrive to the chapel only to be shot by an ex-lover and a gang of assassins. At least that's what we learned from Kill Bill, Tarantino's... More »
Scrooge: Better Late than Never

By Patrick Williams | Thu, December 15, 2011

Ah, Ebeneezer Scrooge, what a fine symbol of redemption he is. Listen and learn, children: You can spend nearly all your life as the meanest, most miserly SOB on the planet. Just make sure that before the end comes, you get sappy and buy some poor... More »
Pound Pavement for a Cure

By S. Anne Durham | Thu, October 13, 2011

There are many things we can do for "the cure" these days. We can wear ribbons, buy products in a specific color, post on our Facebook walls or all of the above. Although there are as many causes as there are ills to cure, Dallas' own Susan G. Kom... More »

In recent months, and certainly since the 2006 expansion of Ray Nasher's white-brick mall, we've discovered there is no such thing as a quick trip to NorthPark. A pit stop in, oh, the Apple store or the Gap turns into a long morning that morphs into an entire day, as suddenly the kiddo discovers the computer in the Dallas Public Library's Bookmarks or the outside garden, which allows for an extended game of tag-and-tackle; then, maybe, the urge to see a movie sets in, but not before grabbing a cup of coffee at the nearby Starbucks; then, of course, there's lunch to be had, either in the food court or Neiman Marcus or Nordstrom or one of the other high-end eateries scattered about the mall; then, a respite in the Bose dark, cool theater-room, where one can digest in surround sound. Then, for the ladies, the day spa�as common in NorthPark as a cop these days. Or, for the men, a shave in the Art of Shaving antique barber's chair, followed by a trip to the day spa, because, really, fella, don't you deserve it? The list of activities is limitless; so too the possibilities of killing a day.
