For the fan hospitality room at the Heart of Dallas Bowl, we decided to use The Owner's Box, the sports bar restaurant at the team hotel.

The Naval Academy is right outside of downtown, there's lots to see and do, and the nightlife is pretty fun.

When Metro built a station

- [El Palomino, Stillwater OK](https://karylskulinarykrusade.com/repeats-with-a-twist-el-palomino-stillwater-ok-3/) - I hardly ever ate Mexican food when I lived in Maryland, and I'm really not sure why.
