Pop Diner

Eater Dallas has a very important Heatmap which helps everyone in Dallas feel at ease about the ins and outs of dining. It was really weird when Pop Diner was listed last week. Even more interesting was realizing this place is located next door to Max's Wine Dive in the West Village. A diner beside a fancy dive has to be doing something right.

Cindi’s NY Delicatessen

A nonsense kind of donut place. Even the sign on the window screaming donuts are fresh out of the oven does...
