betterBURGER Has A Good Burger, But Oh Those Fries

by Steven Doyle

When you title your restaurant betterBURGER you are tossing down a gauntlet in a city that is obsessed with their beef. In the past year dozens of burger joints both gourmet and otherwise have opened their doors. It has been a fairly safe bet in the Dallas restaurant industry that burgers sell.

I met one of the owners, Vincent Vitalis, who was more than enthusiastic to chat up anyone who happened into his clean, tidy shop located on Lemmon just west of Inwood road. Vitalis is not necessarily new to the restaurant business. He comes from a family of entrepreneurs that successfully run local stops such as the Original Market Diner on Harry Hines (think best breakfast and incredible pie) as well as Circle Grill in East Dallas (chicken fried steak and other home cooking fare).

All You Can Eat Pancakes Back at IHOP

This January, IHOP restaurants are helping you achieve their New Year’s resolution – to eat as many of IHOP restaurants’ world famous, freshly made for you buttermilk pancakes as often as they wish, any time of day – by bringing back one of the brand’s most popular, “All You Can Eat” pancakes.

From January 4 through February 14, guests dining in participating restaurants can order either five famous buttermilk pancakes or a short stack of two pancakes with a combo plate of eggs, golden hash browns and their choice of breakfast meats for breakfast, lunch or dinner. Once that initial serving of pancakes has been enjoyed, guests can keep a short stack of two buttermilk pancakes coming again and again until they have had all they can eat.

And, because IHOP restaurants believe that guests should be able to have it their way, they can make this offer even sweeter by finishing each stack of pancakes – including each additional short stack – with their favorite fruit topping for one additional cost.

Guests can choose to add and switch among the following toppings: Strawberries, Blueberries, Cinnamon Apples and Peaches.
