The Essential Dallas-Fort Worth If you've only got a few hours to spare, look no further than our 90-minute itineraries for the time-crunched traveler. For more activities and things to do in DFW, visit www.wheretraveler.com/dallas or follow us on Instagram at @WhereDFW. 90 MINUTES IN: Just a 15-minute Uber ride from Dallas Love Field Airport and a stone's throw from downtown, the ever-popular Knox-Henderson area is a blend of award-winning restaurants (like Gemma, Fireside Pies and Victor Tango's), retail shops and nightlife destinations. With less than two hours' time to explore, one must decide whether the priority is a good meal or a unique souvenir. Regardless,

Knox-Henderson any time of day is a good time for artisanal espresso or an almond milk latté at Houndstooth Coffee (pictured). Hit the block for some retail therapy at boutiques including Kit and Ace, Planet Blue, Esther Penn or The Gypsy Wagon. For something truly one-of-akind, look no further than La Mariposa or Last Kiss Vintage. For night owls, explore the social scene at the Dram, Beauty Bar or Candleroom.

TLC. While the lyrics of the legendary American folk song “Deep Ellum Blues”—"when you go down to Deep Ellum/to have a little fun"— performed by local blues icon Bill Neely and the Grateful Dead, among others—depict a gritty scene comprised of vagabonds, gamblers, musicians and characters from the underbelly of the city’s population in general, long gone are Deep Ellum’s days in the shadows. Once the anchor of underground culture in Dallas, outlaws like Bonnie and Clyde as well as blues musicians including Neely, Robert John-

son and Blind Lemon Jefferson were fixtures of the neighborhood in the early 1900s. In the late 1930s and for years after, the area became an industrial warehouse district, housing the assembly of Ford Model T vehicles and WWII ammunition. The construction of the North Central Expressway (also known as Highway US-75) was the nail in the coffin for the community, effectively cutting off access into downtown and rendering Deep Ellum a ghost town—a far cry from the hotbed of all the action it once was in its heyday. In the nineties, Deep Ellum still struggled to remain relevant, and was seen as an unsafe area to avoid. For music fans, venues like Trees on Elm Street (yes, the one where Kurt Cobain gets into a fight with a bouncer during a Nirvana show) Emporium Pies

and the Gypsy Tea Room perpetuated the tradition of arts and culture set forth by Neely, Johnson and Jefferson. Trees closed its doors. Gypsy Tea Room closed, too. It wasn’t until the last few years that the live music legacy was truly recovered, and then some. Trees reopened. The owners then opened a much larger music venue a few blocks away (in that former WWII ammunition warehouse) called the Bomb Factory, to join the onslaught of live music outposts now thriving in the area: Three Links, Club Dada, Adair’s Saloon, RBC, The Door, Twilite Lounge ... and the list goes on. Venues like The Free Man, Armoury D.E. and The Nines offer both a live stage and sustenance, with dining options ranging from brunch and happy hour to late night eats.

It was around the same time that he met friend and fellow chef Stephan Pyles, whose restaurant

Worth

Routh Street Café was the hottest culinary spot in town, Puck recalled. When asked what inspires him today, the Beverly Hills-based chef said it’s the creativity of young chefs and his love for learning new things. As for the cuisine at Five Sixty, Puck said “the food is very tasty.” Somewhat new on the menu, however, are three wines from Puck’s own wine label: A Pinot Noir, a Chardonnay and a Cabernet Sauvignon that’s only served by the bottle and in the restaurant. “I like to drink the Pinot at home,” he said. As of late Puck’s focus is his CUT Steakhouse concept, which recently opened a New York location, and released a cookbook featuring fresh, seasonally-inspired recipes alongside workout tips for eating well and feeling even better. “Never trust a skinny chef,” he joked— “unless it’s Stephan Pyles!” Reservations are highly recommended for Five Sixty, especially for Valentine’s Day.

[WHERE INSIDE]

Dallas/Fort Worth Your Way

Couples

First-Time Visitors

Thrill Seekers

Tell your significant other je 'taime at neighborhood bistro Bouchon 1314 (1), which evokes the intimacy and romance of a Parisian street café. A true local gem, Bouchon offers an extensive wine list and a moderately priced menu of delightful French fare. For an exquisite "staycation," try the Highland Hotel (2), home of award-winning Chef John Tesar's Knife and 24-hour, in-room dining service from the gourmet steakhouse's full menu. (Yes, that's right: You can order a acon tasting platter or a 240-day dry-aged ribeye straight to your room.) Last but never least, dine at the Rosewood Mansion on Turtle Creek (3) for the ultimate date night; its gourmet Valentine's Day menu and impeccable staff to make the experience one he (or she) won't soon forget.

Of all its landmarks, Dallas’ Dealey Plaza(1) —where President John F. Kennedy was assassinated in 1963—is perhaps the most recognizable. Downtown's grassy knoll and JFK Memorial are rarely seen without visitors, as is the case at The Sixth Floor Museum, which explores the assassination through archived images, eyewitness interviews and artifacts. A concert, game or guided tour at AT&T Stadium (2) rounds out the essential DFW itinerary, as the venue demonstrates why everything is bigger in Texas. No trip to “Cowtown” is complete without a visit to the Fort Worth Stockyards (3), home of rodeos, steakhouses, Western shops and a daily cattle drive. Enjoy a trip back in time to the Wild West and pick up a pair of handmade boots or a branding iron as a souvenir.

The ultimate adrenaline rush is closer (to the ground, that is) than you think at iFLY Indoor Skydiving (1) in Frisco, where no prior experience jumping out of planes is necessary. Just step inside the vertical glass chamber and prepare for lift off as customizable wind speeds allow you to simulate the real thing. At aerial training center Skyline Trapeze (2) in Addison, visitors from ages 3 to 91 have "unleashed their inner circus" with trapeze classes that offer a challenging yet rewarding workout as well as prime views of the city. For outdoor adventurers of all ages, head to Plano's Oak Point Park & Nature Preserve and "hang" out at Go Ape Zip Line & Treetop Adventure (3), an outdoor adventure with obstacles, ropes and zip line courses throughout a shady forest canopy.
