Hoffbrau serving up the black-eyed peas
Hey, Bud! We’re struggling to find restaurants serving black-eyed peas on New Year’s Day. Please help us.
—Jan, Fort Worth
Black-eyed peas are making a comeback.
All four area Hoffbrau Steak & Grill Restaurants in Benbrook, Granbury, Grapevine and Haltom City will bring back black-eyed peas as of Monday, New Year’s Day, and they’re staying on the menu.
Po’ Melvin’s, 4070 N. Belt Line Road, is known for black-eyed peas and will serve more than 1,000 bowls.
The peas also will be a special of the day Monday at Vickery Cafe, 4120 W. Vickery Blvd.; Texan Diner, 2488 Avondale Haslet Road; and Catfish & Company, 900 Airport Freeway, Hurst.
And Arlington has the last Black-eyed Pea Restaurant in Texas, serving them daily at 4000 Bagpiper Way.
Hard Eight BBQ standing pat
Hey, Bud! Know anything about another Hard Eight BBQ opening in north Fort Worth?
—Alliance resident
Hard Eight says no deal.
Yes, there’s a developer’s map out there with a Hard Eight penciled in.
But Vicki Nivens emailed that there’s “nothing in writing!! Just looking.”
Hudson House takes walk-ins at bar
Hey, Bud! What’s the deal with Hudson House? They don’t have any reservations for days, and there’s a 2-hour wait if you walk in?
—Rodney, Fort Worth
Tip: You don’t have to book ahead to sit at the bar, although you might have to wait for a seat. Don’t go at a busy time.
