My Mission:

My primary motivation in representing Dallas is to help folks find good local food. No meal needs to be mediocre; No tastebuds need to go unsatisfied.

About Me:

Some people eat to live, I live to eat. When not properly fed, I get hangry (so hungry that I’m angry). A dedicated food enthusiast currently residing in the greater Dallas/Fort Worth metroplex, I spend all my time (when not at work, school, or the gym) cooking, eating out, reading and learning about food, or engaging in some detailed discussion about food. I am the owner of Donna Cooks, a DFW food blog established in 2006. The blog includes over 80 local restaurant reviews as well as news about the latest local food/wine events.

My Work Includes:

Dining section contributor for Pegasus News since 2007

Books I Like:

Legends of Texas BBQ by Robb Walsh, The Cambridge World History of Food, The Omnivore's Dilemma by Michael Pollan, Joy of Cooking

My Other Favorite Cities:

Shanghai, London, San Francisco, New York, Atlanta
