The New York Times on Monday published its list of the “50 best restaurants in America,” and two Dallas-Fort Worth restaurants are in the lineup. Only one other Texas restaurant made the cut — Canje in Austin. in Arlington, Ethiopian flavors are melded with Texas barbecue to create what owners Fasicka and Patrick Hicks call Tex-Ethiopian. Initially the restaurant opened as a classic Texas barbecue joint, but a year later they added dishes from Fasicka’s native Ethiopia. While other national restaurant lists like the recently published one from Bon Appetit look for newly opened restaurants to feature, the Times list searches for restaurants “doing their best work years in.” No North Texas restaurants were on last year’s list.
