Deep Ellum

Local

Day 1: 5-Course Avant-American Tasting Series

Opened way back in 2003, this Deep Ellum institution in the historic Boyd Hotel has kept things sparkling fresh, landing on Paper City Mag's List of “10 Great Dallas Restaurants.” Over the years, Chef/Owner Tracy Miller has cultivated relationships with surrounding purveyors, cheesemakers, breweries, ranchers, wineries and farmers. The result is a modern American menu that aims to please with dishes like fried green beans, charred radicchio and kale Caesar salad, Pinot-glazed salmon with whipped parsnip, braised silky short ribs with horseradish cream, and gorgeous desserts like warm Texas honey spice cake with sauteed apples and apple cinnamon ice cream and devil’s food chocolate cake with vanilla fudge ice cream. “Revisiting a longtime Deep Ellum favorite, Local, reminds us why it's been around for more than 20 years,” says Dallas Observer, so, naturally, we are excited to spend an evening here and to chat with Chef Miller about her tried and true food ideas. It promises to be a very special event indeed!

About the Host:

Tracy Miller

Chef/Owner

Chef Tracy Miller's path to the restaurant's home at 2936 Elm Street was anything but linear until she found the historic Boyd Hotel, a space rich with history, charm and possibility. Now one of Dallas's longest-running independent restaurants and still evolving, it reflects the work of a chef who has earned widespread recognition from the likes of StarChefs, Food & Wine, Gourmet, Texas Monthly, New York Times, and more.
