    This seems like a golf tournament for pilots. What qualifies an event 16 miles from the airport as a "fly in"?

    The dinner restaurants for the nights of April 12th and April 13th have been reserved!

    Wednesday, April 12th, we will be dining at the Tupelo Honey Cafe. The restaurant describes itself as “a revival of Southern food and traditions rooted in the Carolina Mountains we call home. We craft brunches, lunches and suppers that bring family and friends around the table for scratch-made and responsibly-sourced Southern fare.”

    Thursday, April 13th, we will be dining at Randy’s Steakhouse 2. The owner, Randy Burks, tells about the historic Victorian home that the restaurant is in: "The T.J. Campbell house was built in 1869 during the cattle drives traveling north. Preston Road was part of the Shawnee Trail, over which trail drives took herds of cattle to northern markets.

    In 1902, the railroad came through Collin County and the city of Frisco was established. In 1903, Mr. Campbell moved the house to the current location on Main Street in Frisco. The house was moved from the original location on what is now Preston Road by oxen pulling it on logs. The house was constructed from lumber hauled by wagon trains from Jefferson, Texas.

    The transformation of a beautiful Victorian home to a full-service restaurant took a great deal of research and expertise. We took the utmost care to preserve the historical aura that the McCallum family had given their home."

    Come on out to the 2023 Texas Top Aviation Dallas Fly In to experience this great food that Dallas has to offer, not to mention new and old friends, good quality aviation seminars, and some high quality golf for those who like to hit the links.

    Tupelo Honey is a chain which originates from Asheville, NC. We found it in Asheville before it became a chain, but we've been consistently disappointed with every other one we've been to. I vote for Babe's or Hard 8.

    Babe's is fantastic, and local, but pretty limited. I'm not going to attend (I don't play golf), so I've got no dog in the fight, but I wonder why people use Dallas to name their events that have nothing to do with Dallas. Coming from New Braunfels, Hank may not think our Q is worthy, but some of the steaks around here can't be beat.
