Welcome to Gastrognome, our recurring dining feature that aims to highlight the unique and varied dining landscape in Fort Worth. We’ve all got our own weird dietary quirks, so this will make for some good reading in the coming posts.

We’ll start this feature with a review of a seafood restaurant in Sundance Square, but just because our first restaurant has a couple $$ in the summary doesn’t mean we’ll always be dining with rich folks, drinking coffee and smoking big cigars. You get to read about the places we like. We aren’t food critics; we are folks that don’t mind spending our hard earned scratch on some good food.

So what’s with the name, Gastrognome? I don’t know, man…We have a weird sense of humour and as soon as I can cook up the graphic, it will make a lot more sense.
