Whether with the longtime significant other, or a first date, it’s the dreaded conversation that can kill the mood:

“I don’t know where do you want to eat? What do you wanna do?” Silence. “I want a divorce.”

Calm down, couples, and consider us marriage/dating counselors, with a very particular set of skills. Skills we have acquired over a very long career eating and entertaining ourselves in Dallas.

Eat.

Breakfast. Two words: Banana pancakes. JJ’s Café serves up the best inside the loop. And loads of other breakfast, lunch and dinner dishes also populate the menu. Northwest Highway at Ferndale.

Brunch. If you’re going to Do Brunch, you might as well do your thing in Uptown. Thrillist Dallas declares Bread Winners the city’s undisputed brunch champion.

Lunch. Flower Child in Inwood Village feels homegrown, local (even though it’s a chain outta Arizona, but let’s not hold that against them), from its ultra-charming retro, psychedelic-mural décor to a variety of healthy-while-scrumptious lunches made from scratch. They even use leftover fruits and vegetables to make juice. And they promise, “there is something for everyone.”

Dinner. Casual chicken, South Korean style. Here, Eater has a video. Via Facebook, The northwest Dallas establishment announced later weekend nights and two-for-one beers on Thursdays.

Deals. Saturday is Armed Forces Day, and active military and veterans can get a free cheeseburger at Liberty Burger with a military ID.

Do.
