La Perla d’Italia Tasting

Food writers around Dallas were invited to “dine around” the many different restaurants located at Village on the Green last night. Our first stop was La Perla d’Italia. People need to know the owner of La Perla has the best Italian accent in the history of Italians living in Dallas with fantastic Italian accents.

Snuffer’s Tasting in Preston Center

The only time I go to...
