About this experience
We'll begin on Main Street in the heart of a former warehouse district turned funky nightlife, restaurant, and shopping area. First up, you'll dig into some "cowboy style" BBQ, served with all the fixin's. Next, you'll savor a cup of spicy chilli con carne then cool off with a buttery biscuit served with sweet local honey. On our walk, we'll explore some of the murals and signs that have made Deep Ellum a mecca for all things urban art. Are you ready for a flavor explosion? At our next stop, our delicious Secret Dish is sure to put a little South in your mouth. We'll round things out by taking a trip down memory lane as you discover retro sodas and see candies from the good old days. And finally, it's pie o'clock somewhere as Dallas' favorite dessert meets a beloved Southern liquor - bourbon!
As a private tour, everything works around you! It's a much more intimate and cozy experience.
