A west Fort Worth cafe reopens with a new look. And the German chocolate pie is back
The German chocolate pie is back
Hey, Bud! What was the deal with Benbrook Cafe?
—Victor, Fort Worth
The durable restaurant at 4902 U.S. 377 in Benbrook reopened after a few weeks’ remodeling. Look for a fresh interior, new seating and new appeal. It has $5.99 breakfasts, $8.99 lunches and best of all, German chocolate pie. (And frequent Groupon deals.)
Check again on those pork ribs
Hey, Bud! Where can I find pork ribs? All I find are beef.
—Crowley reader
If I lived in Crowley, I’d go try the pork ribs at Cousin’s Bar-B-Q, Jambo’s in Rendon, Goldee’s north of Rendon, Hickory Stick in Everman and Longoria’s in Everman. Then repeat.
The Black Forest is back
Hey, Bud! Is Swiss Pastry Shop open? When do they serve lunch?
—Starving lunch guy
Swiss Pastry Shop is serving lunch again Tuesdays through Saturdays but only at the counter. Come by any day for lunch from 11 a.m., or come all day for pastries, breads or Black Forest cake.
