RESTAURANT NEWS


Openings

Italian-born Master Chef Salvatore Giselleu (of Daddy Jack's Wood Grill in Deep Ellum) has created Urban Crust, a pizza experience that rises high above the crust. With the focus on a custom-built wood burning oven in the open kitchen, he turns out finely crafted artisan pizzas featuring fig preserves, prosciutto de parma, baby portobellos, marinated sirloin and other high-quality ingredients. But the extensive menu provides more than just pies; there are signature dishes, seafood and steak specials, too. The restaurant also features a trendy, full service rooftop bar, 32 Degrees---named for the temperature at which they keep the ice cold draft beers. Lunch & Dinner daily. Urban Crust, 1006 E. 15th St., Plano, TX 75074, 972-509-1400.
 
Executive chef Sharon McGrath knows how the cookie crumbles---and the pastry and the pie, for that matter. Featuring pastry dishes for breakfast and lunch, 15th Street Eatery specializes in pies that'll make your eyes wide. McGrath serves scratch-made delicacies such as mince meat, cornish pastries, crepes, muffins, dessert pies and more. The cafe serves pastries for breakfast and full menus at lunch and dinner. Breakfast, Lunch & Dinner daily. 15th Street Eatery, 4120 W. 15th St., Plano, TX 75093, 972-867-2839.
