The wine list

Stroll down to Boulevardier for French-inspired fare. The Bishop Arts bistro’s walls are lined in wood, brick and wine while its tables showcase food ranging from French onion soup to burgers. “We all loved that kind of simple rustic approach to French food, not the overdone pretentious types of French food you can find sometimes,” chef Nathan Tate says. “We wanted a really relaxed environment.” Tate owns the restaurant along with Brooks Anderson, Bradley Anderson and Randall Copeland, with whom he runs a Rockwall restaurant, Ava. Before opening at the end of July, Tate and Brooks researched food in New York, Montreal and New Orleans, whose seafood influences are reflected on the menu. Boulevardier also o ers French wines not common in Dallas and beef from the family farm where Tate grew up. “We like to have a rustic sensibility and a soulfulness to our menu and our food,” Tate says.
