MARTHA GRAHAM!

MODERNIST DESIGNS



Despite what Tom Wolfe says, modern architecture and design did not spring to life on the steps of the German Bauhaus during the halcyon days of the Weimar Republic. In fact, by the time the Bauhaus was turning out a generation of young architects and artists, modernism was some 30 years old. Modernism was born in Vienna in the utilitarian work of architect Otto Wagner and the designs of Wagner’s gifted pupil, Josef Hoffmann.



The first American museum exhibit ever to survey the work of Josef Hoffmann has been organized by David Ryan, director of the Fort Worth Art Museum. “Josef Hoffmann: Design Classics” explores the artist’s pioneer work in modern design.



In 1897, Hoffmann, Wagner and a small group of other designers and artists broke from the stuffy, academic tradition of design they had grown up with and worked toward “totally designed” environment.



Hoffmann went on to found and direct the Vienna Workshops, where skilled artists and craftsmen produced designs for everything from jewelry to furniture to entire buildings. It had an immense influence upon Bauhaus artists and designers.

The exhibit continues through January 9 at the Fort Worth Art Museum, 1309 Montgomery St., Fort Worth. Tue 10-9, Wed-Sat 10-5, Sun 1-5. (817) 738-9215. -Ken Barrow



DALLAS 0PERA SILVER SEASON



Twenty-five years ago this month, the Dallas Civic Opera gave its first production: a concert featuring Maria Callas accompanied by the Dallas Symphony under the baton of Nicola Rescigno.

The Dallas Opera still opens in November and is still dedicated to bringing the highest quality of operatic performance to Dallas. The name has changed, the season now includes four full-fledged operatic productions annually and the half-empty house that greeted Callas in 1957 has been replaced in recent years by capacity crowds.



The season begins with Rescigno conducting Puccini’s Gianni Schicchi with Paolo Montarsolo and Maria Spacagna, and Leoncavallo’s I Pagliacci with James McCracken, Franco Bordoni and Patricia Craig. November 5, 10 & 13 at 8 p.m. and November 7 at 2 p.m. Berislav Klobucar conducts Richard Strauss’ Der Rosenkavalier with Anne Howells, Costanza Cuccaro, Manfred Jungwirth, Gwendolyn Killebrew and Elisabeth Soederstroem. November 19, 24 & 27 at 7:30 p.m. and November 21 at 1:30 p.m. Tickets $50-$6. 528-3200. – Wayne Lee Gay

NIGHTLIFE



Abernathy’s. When it opened four years ago. Aber-nathy’s was the first of the good basic fern bars in Fort Worth Consistently good burgers, nachos and salads, as well as just-right drinks keep the TCU and young business crowds satisfied (2859 W Berry, Fort Worth (817) 9230941 Mon-Thur 11 am-mid-night, Fri & Sat 11 am-2 am. MC, V.)

Andrew’s. If you’re looking for imaginative drinks and a charming atmosphere. Andrew’s is the place tor you The decor is Scottish pub with lots of brick, and the service is efficient The drink menu is larger than the food menu (great for liquid diets), with specialties ranging from hot coffee drinks to tutti-frutti tropical knockouts (3301 McKinney. 521-6535. Daily 11:15 am-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 2-7 pm. daily 11 pm-2 am. All credit cards )

Arthur’s. Quiet jazz. intimate lighting and over-stutfed sofas make Arthur’s the perfect bar for a tete-a-tete or an after-work get together The drinks are good and strong, and the service is unobtrusive (8350 N Central Expwy 361-8833. Mon-Fri 11 30 am-2 am. Sat 6 pm-2 am. Sun 6 pm-midnight All credit cards)

Bagatelle. If you re tired of your rowdy friends and would like to slip into a plush, dark booth for a smooth drink and a little intimate conversation, this is the perfect place What you’ll find at Bagatelle is good food and great jazz Karen Edwards sings and plays the piano Monday. Tuesday and Wednesday nights, the Paul Guerrero Jazz Quartet performs Thursday. Friday and Saturday nights (4925 Greenville. 692-8225. Mon-Wed 11:30 am-midnight, Thur till 1 am, Fri & Sat till 2 am; Sun brunch 10:30-2 Happy hour Mon-Fri 4:30-7. All credit cards.)

Balboa Café. This relaxing, dark fern bar offers good drinks, expedient service and moderate crowds The menu consists of fairly filling sandwiches and hamburgers, smooth guacamole and chips and salads-all reasonably priced The Greenville Avenue location includes a patio for balmy nights and only a small bar The crowd there is a bit livelier and is louder, a pub atmosphere is prevalent with a big screen TV and dart tourneys four times a week. (3604 Oak Lawn 521-1068 7015 Greenville. 369-7027. Daily 11 am-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7 MC. V, AE.)

Bar Tejas. For so long, this has been a favorite standby nightspot. The drinks are great and the food has always been just what we wanted. (Try the nachos with black beans and chicken ) But on our last visit we were disappointed to the point of hurrying down our order and pushing for our check: The music was loud and obnoxious We haven’t given up on Bar Tejas. but we recommend you take note of the acoustical level before paying cover (2100 Greenville. 828-2131. Daily 3 pm-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 3-7. AE.)

Belle Starr. Not quite in the same league as Diamond Jim’s. Belle Starr has become a real haven for semi-urban, blue-collar cowboys and cowgirls who just love to two-step and polka (this place is equipped with a huge dance floor). (7724 N Central near Southwestern. 750-4787. Mon-Sat 7 pm-2 am. Sun 4 pm-2 am. All credit cards.)

Biff’s. Biff’s belongs in the middle of an 8-loot snowbank with a fire blazing in its fireplace, icicles clinging to the windowsills and red-faced people bustling about in fur-lined parkas and après-ski boots. The atmosphere is definitely wintertime in Aspen If it’s burgers or nachos you’re after. Biff’s is the place (Their combination nachos are among the best in town ) The drinks are average (7402 Greenville 696-1952. Daily 11 am-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7 Brunch Sat & Sun 11 am-3pm. AE, MC, V.)

Billy Bob’s Texas.It was only a matter of time before someone built a c/w nightclub bigger than Gilley’s. it’s perfectly logical that it was built in Fort Worth Billy Bob’s has 42 bar stations, six shops, two restaurants, a seating capacity of 6.000. real cowboys riding real bulls in a stockyard arena, and some of the biggest names in country music. (2520 N Commerce, Fort Worth. (817) 625-6491. Mon-Sat 10 am-2 am; Sun 4 pm-midnight. Happy hour daily 4-8 pm. V, MC, AE.)

Café Dallas. It you’re out to pick up someone and you can’t do it here there must be something wrong. This place is literally overflowing with eager young (well, maybe not quite so young) swingles in all shapes and sizes Anything is “in” here; as long as you act like you belong, you will And Cafe Dallas has one of the best sound systems in Dallas. So, if you like to dance (anything from disco to new wave to rock) and don’t mind a few indecent proposals, Cafe Dallas is for you. (5500 Greenville. 987-0066. Mon-Thur 3 pm-2 am, Fri till 3 am. Sat 8 pm-3 am, Sun 8 pm-2 am. AE, MC, V.)

Cardinal Pull’s. Mostly we love the atmosphere here-open rooms filled with gentle breezes, plants, garden furniture and an occasional wandering cat. It’s a good place for conversation and is relaxing, but the drinks (our margaritas tasted like 7-Eleven Slurpees) could stand some revamping. (4615 Greenville. 369-1969. Mon-Sat 11:30 am-2 am, Sun noon-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 11:30-7. MC, AE, DC, V.)

Chelsea Corner. Almost hidden at the intersection of Monticello and McKinney. Chelsea Corner offers the “fun” food and drinks of upper Greenville Avenue in a casual atmosphere more akin to lower Greenville Avenue-without being either. The well drinks are potent and reasonably priced, and the special drinks (like the Frozen Tumbleweed and the Scarlet Fever) are luscious. (4830 McKinney. 522-3501. Mon-Fri 11:30am-2am, Sat & Sun noon-2 am, Sun brunch noon-3. All credit cards.)

Comedy Corner. This isn’t such a bad place to catch semi-big-name comedy acts-if you don’t mind a lot of smoke, a $5 cover, a two-drink minimum and a waitress who automatically assumes that your change is her tip. Rows of comedians in their own rights fill the audience while comedy acts of varying quality take the stage for short sets of stand-up humor (8202 Park Lane. 361-7461. Sets begin Wed & Thur at 8:30 pm; Fri & Sat 8:30 & 10:30. Tue audition night 8:30. Closed Sun. AE, MC, V.)

Confetti. One man’s clutter is another man’s eclectic, and this is possibly the most eclectic bar in Dallas. Dangling bicycles, zigzag neon and poster-plastered walls expose a theme bar that couldn’t decide upon a theme. But if you can dig your way through the crowd, you’ll discover two flashy dance floors, several well-manned bars-maybe even Mr. or Ms. Right Music varies here from Fifties doo-wa to Eighties do-whatever. Be prepared for a long line out the door on Friday and Saturday nights. (5201 Matilda oft Lovers Lane. 369-6969. Mon-Thur 4:30 pm-2 am, Fri 4:30 pm-4 am, Sat 7 pm-4 am, Sun 7 pm-2 am. Weekend cover $2. All credit cards.)

Diamond Jim’s. What a great place to get picked up! It’s not too pretentious, it’s not overdone and it has the essential c/w elements to offer its patrons: pseudo-Western surroundings, lots of floor space to two-step or swing dance on and oodles of available singles. We especially like the windowsills that line one wall; they’re perfect perches for people-watching. (5601 Greenville. 691-2411. Mon-Fri 5 pm-2am. Sat S & Sun 7 pm-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 5-8 pm. MC, V, AE.)

East-Side. This place has all the new wave elements: black and white tile, gladiolas. avant-garde art on the walls. But somehow. East-Side seems passé. Even after savoring several of East-Side’s strong drinks, it’s difficult to loosen up and feel at ease here. Part of the problem seems to be that there is just too much space. Perhaps if the tables were closer together, patrons wouldn’t feel so isolated. The drinks are good, the tried zucchini is top-notch and the jukebox is truly eclectic. (7035 Greenville. 987- 0559 Mon-Fri 5 pm-2 am, Sat & Sun 6 pm 2 am. MC. V. CB. AE.)

Eight-O. You’ll have a hard time just sitting and chatting here-sooner or later your feet will involuntarily tap themselves over to the compact dance floor for a workout to the tunes of the dynamic, upbeat jukebox Your conversation will center on the colorful, wild art. the fashionable, younger crowd (and incongruously dressed preps) and the good drinks. A hi-tech, artsy atmosphere has strong influence here. The action continues until closing. Food is available. (The Quadrangle. 2800 Routh, suite 125. 741-0817 Mon-Sat 11:30 am-2 am, Sun 6 pm-2 am with live music at night. Live jazz at lunch Wed-Sat. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7 MC, AE, V.)

Encore. Return to a simpler time, when neon and black and white tile and glass Cricks represented “wild times.” and Frank Sinatra music was considered too dangerous for impressionable young girls. Encore is a Forties and Fifties echo, with a friendly, eclectic crowd, good Greek food and burgers, and live entertainment Wed-Sat This month Encore features the fabulous West Coast Connection. (3520 Oak Lawn. 526-9055 Mon & Tue 11:30am-midnight, Wed-Fri 11:30 am-2 am, Sat 8 pm-2 am. AE. V. MC.)

Alan. Some of the b.p. (beautiful people) may have left last year’s preferred watering hole for greener pastures, but elan is still not exactly deserted. There will always be those who care enough for exclusivity to buy it for a $350 membership fee Happy hour gets you two drinks tor the price of one. and perhaps the most generous free buffets in town (Mon-Fri 5 pm-8 pm). Be forewarned: There are two house wines, and you have to ask for the better one. Beau Rivage. by name If you don’t have a membership, you can buy a 3-day guest pass tor $25 (5111 Greenville. 692-9855. Mon-Fri 11:30 am-2 am. Sat 7 pm-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4:30-9. Sun brunch 11-2. All credit cards )

Fender’s Bar and Grill. Jazz is the main entree at Fender’s. and apparently the owners are talking about real jazz, not the cocktail-pianist variety The menu here is basic burgers/nachos/potato skins, but it does offer some steaks and more ambitious entrees, such as moussaka And the drinks are substantial. Fender’s is a spacious place with excellent acoustics, but there are a few smaller enclaves for those more interested in talking than listening. (2828 W Northwest Hwy 350-4240. Mon-Thur 11 am-11 pm. Fri-Sun 11 am-2 am AE. MC, V.) Four Seasons Ballroom. Big-band music for ballroom dancing. A strict dress code is enforced- dresses for the ladies, and coats and ties for the gentlemen Only setups, beer and soft drinks are served, except on Fridays, when food is available Cover varies Free dance lessons are offered. (4930 Military Pkwy. 3490390 or 381 9072. Wed 8:45 pm-12:15 am, Fri 9 pm -12:30 am & first Sat of each month 9 pm -1 am. No credit cards.)

Greenville Avenue Country Club. One step inside the door of this low-key, easygoing place, and the name country club takes on a new meaning. Drinks are served inside the “clubhouse” where the surroundings are warm and comfortable, or outside, around a cool, blue pool At this “country club” though, the only big shots are the ones they’ll pour into your glass (3619 Greenville. 8265650. Mon-Sat 11 am-2 am. Sun noon-2 am Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7. AE. MC. V.)

Greenville Bar & Grill. Dallas’ oldest bar-that’s what the owners claim-has alleviated the crowding somewhat with the opening of an adjoining, quieter room You may be more comfortable in the addition, especially if you want to be heard, but the real GB&G is still out in the boisterous main room. The drinks are straight-up and strong. The entertainment is eccentric and erratic (2821 Greenville. 823-6691. Mon-Sat 11 30 am-2 am. Sun noon 2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7. AE.)

Ground Zero. Sixties go-go gone new wave ga-ga “Dallas’ first nuclear bar” features live bands (nightly except Sunday), plenty of parquet and oh, yeah a dancing girl in a cage (6844 Twin Hills, one block south of Comedy Corner. 3630167. Nightly 8 pm-2 am. Cover varies. MC, V. AE.)

Hippopotamus. Far from the bright lights of Greenville Avenue, tucked quietly in the beautifully renovated Bradford Hotel. Hippopotamus offers a dark, soothing atmosphere and a New York-style piano bar The large picture window looks out on the shimmering Hyatt Regency and the occasional passing strollers who-by Hippopotamus’ standards-are moving too fast. (302 S Houston 761 9090 Mon-Sat 11:30am-11:30pm. Sun 4pm-11:30pm. Pianist Mon-Fri 5-8 Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7 AE. MC. V. CB.)

The Hop. The Hop. a longtime Fort Worth institution, has pizza, spaghetti and all kinds of music, ranging from rock to iazz to the countryfolk sound of songwriters B.W. Stevenson and Steve Fromholz The atmosphere is low-key and comfortable. (2905 W Berry. Fort Worth. (817)923-7281. Mon-Sat 11 am-2 am. Sun 4 pm-1 am. Happy hour daily 2-7, all day Wed. Sun 4-7. All credit cards.)

Hot Klub. Dallas’ premiere punk showplace is. in a word, authentic The Hot Klub features the best new wave bands in Texas as well as groups from all across the country The atmosphere well, there is no atmosphere, except for the music and the crowd, which can be an unruly-dare we say rough? -bunch of serious punkers. (4350 Maple 526-9432.)

Joe Miller’s. What a perfect afternoon bar for casual conversation-easy on the background music, soft on the lights and hard on the sledgehammer drinks that-along with the media crowd- have helped build Joe’s reputation. While you’re settling the worlds problems, check out Joe’s photo gallery of quasi-celebrities. the droll posters and other oddities. And watch that third drink. (3531 McKinney. 521-2261. Mon-Fri noon-2 am. AE, MC, V.)

Knox Street Pub. A Dallas bar tradition, this is where we were taken by our hosts when we first arrived in Dallas several years ago. We liked it then and we like it still It’s a no-pretense establishment with an old-wood and tern atmosphere and help who immediately make you feel at home. (3230 Knox. 526-9476. Mon-Sat 11 am-2am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7. Closed Sun. No credit cards.)

La Cave. Ah, a place for lovers. For discussion and good wine. This small, chic wine shop/bar has a walk-in wine cellar with an incredible collection of foreign and domestic wines. A few entrees are offered, but we suggest sticking to the cheese, and nut and fruit trays. (2926 N Henderson 826-2190. Wine shop: Mon-Sat 10 am-11:30 pm. Bistro: Mon-Fri, lunch 1130-2: dinner, 5:30-11:30 pm. All credit cards. $$)

Lakewood Grill. The Lakewood area isn’t the peaceful homestead neighborhood that it used to be, particularly with the arrival of the Lakewood Grill. The decor is a combination of 21st-century slick (a mirrored bar with black and white additions) and Fifties funk (dinette set tables and chairs and red leatherette booths) The drinks here are more than substantial, they’re huge-and strong. Its new menu features New Orleans Creole food. Live entertainment Wed-Sun from 9 30 pm-1:30 am (6332 La Vista. 823-5340. Daily 11:30 am-2 am. MC. V. AE.)

Lakewood Yacht Club. Every neighborhood has a hang-out that has become a local institution. It’s the place to grab a cold beer and a good sandwich with friends It’s the place to celebrate after a Softball victory or drown your sorrows alter a defeat Lakewood Yacht Club is such an institution-a laid-back, com fortable place where probably half the people there at any given time know each other, and the other half feel as if they do The beer is always icy cold, the atmosphere is homey (2009 Abrams. 824 1390. Mon-Fri 11 am-2 am. Sal & Sun noon-2 am. AE. MC. V.)

Les Saisons. A far cry from the usual fern racks of Greenville and the hi-tech of Oak Lawn, Les Saisons is a quiet haven lor grown-ups. For smooth, elegant drinks and music that can be savored or left as backdrop conversation. The view from the bar isn’t as spectacular as that from the restaurant, but the surroundings are attractive and comfortable. (165 Turtle Creek Village, Oak Lawn at Blackburn, 528-1102. Daily 11:30 am-1:30 pm. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7 All credit cards.)

Longhorn Ballroom. So what if it’s crowded and smoky, the cover’s too high, the tourists are too many. This is Bob Wills’ Longhorn Ballroom, the place for kicker dancin’, beer drinkin’ and hell raisin’. You’ll fit in whether you can dance or not. and you might as well plan on coming home with bruised toenails (those rhinestone cowboys really can be oafs). No one should live in Dallas and not go to the Longhorn at least once It’s a Texas tradition. (276 Corinth at Industrial. 428-3128. Wed & Thur 7 pm-1 am, Fri & Sat 7 pm-2 am, Sun 5 pm-midnight. All credit cards.)

Nick’s Uptown. Behind the Venetian blinds at Nick’s Uptown, you’ll find an unlikely (but likeable) melange of attempted hi-tech and Fifties drugstore decor. The mostly 30ish crowd is drawn by solid acts like Al “TNT” Braggs and Vince Vance and the Valiants. Nick’s has stiff prices for not-so-stiff drinks, but the service is cordial and the overall effect makes for a pleasant evening. (3606 Greenville. 827-4802. Daily 8 pm-2 am. AE, MC, V.)

Nostromo. Materialism and appearances are at their best here. Everyone seems to be competing for stares with one another If you’re stylish enough, your ego will feel great by closing time We are guilty of hypocrisy, however, because overall we had a relaxing, good time The food and drink are good and fairly expensive; the service is fine, though preferential, the decor has an artsy class and simplicity To avoid the late-night line at the door, try the quiet happy hour (daily 6-8), usually accompanied by the jazzy tunes of the Ed Hagen Group (Wed-Fri). (4519 Travis. 528-8880. Mon-Fri 11:30 am-2 am. Sat 6 pm-2 am. Sun 6 pm-midnight. Reservations recommended. Jackets required for men after 6. AE, MC. V.)

The Palm Bar. This is a beautiful place for downtown workers to have an extended series of drinks. As hotel bars go, it is the most upscale in Dallas. The walk through the redecorated Adolphus is worth the excursion, and if you prefer open spaces, you can have a drink served in the lobby (Adolphus Hotel. 1321 Commerce. 742-8200. Mon-Fri 11 am-8pm. All credit cards.)

Piaf’s. It used to be so easy to get a table at Piaf’s Now there’s more of a crowd at this California-esque bar/restaurant, but so it goes with a good thing Fortunately, the crowd is varied and lively, as are the food and drink. Best of all, Piaf’s remains casual, comfortable and fairly quiet. (4527 Travis. 526-3730. Mon-Sat 11:30am-2am, Sun 11:30am-midnight. Sun brunch 11:30-3. Happy hour daily 4-7 pm & 11 pm-closing. Kitchen open till 1:30 am Thur-Sat, till midnight Sun-Wed. All credit cards.)

Poor David’s Pub. It’s easy to bypass this Sixties holdover on your way to somewhere else, but if you’re looking for decent live music, that may be a mistake. Sure. Poor David’s is tiny and dark and has absolutely no stage. All the better to concentrate on the music, which, more often than not, is worth hearing. (2900 McKinney. 821-9891. Mon & Wed-Fri 4 pm-2 am, Sat 7 pm-2 am. Happy hour 4-8 pm week -days. Closed Sun and Tue. No credit cards.)

Popsicle Toes. The name may be a bit odd (taken from a Michael Franks tune), but this place has great jazz-funk and an enjoyable, casual cosmopolitan clientele. We’ve never felt so at home on a first visit just sitting and listening to the music. Regulars such as Phyrework, Buster Brown and. on Mondays. Pore. Cooke and Neal, seem able to do it all-from jazz to rock to country (5627 Dyer. 368-9706. Tue-Sun 8 pm-2 am. Closed Mon. TGIF Fri 4-7pm. MC. V, AE.)

The Quiet Man. A great little unobtrusive neighborhood bar, the Quiet Man is especially popular with the blue jeans and work shirt set. It’s about the size of the men’s rooms at D/FW airport and is dimly lit, but the crowd is friendly. The Quiet Man is an ideal place to talk (except outdoors during rush hour) and nurse a cheap drink. (3120 Knox. 526-6180. Tue-Sat noon-2 am, Sun & Mon 4 pm-midnight. No credit cards.)

The Railhead. Quality entertainment with no cover charge is the drawing card here, a rarity that almost overcomes the club’s major irritations: You can’t run a cash tab during happy hour, the drinks are only so-so and the wait-persons sometimes wait too long before visiting your table. (6919 Twin Hills. 369-8700. Sun & Mon 5 pm-1 am, Tue-Sat 5 pm-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 5-7. All credit cards.)

San Francisco Rose. When relaxing at SFR, it’s easy to feel as if you’re in someone’s living room, rather than in a bar on lower Greenville. The seating consists of cozy groupings of easy chairs and overstuffed Victorian sofas. If you’re with a group or alone and in the mood to meet someone, this arrangement lends itself to the cause. If, however, you’re looking for a place for an intimate conversation for two, you may be hard pressed to find privacy. (3024 Greenville. 826-2020. Mon-Sat 11 am-2 am. Sun noon-2 am. Happy hour Mon-Fri 5-7. AE, MC, V, DC.)

6051 Club. Even if 6051 is hard to find, and the place looks like a beauty shop-turned-pizza-joint, it is the place to go for jazz. The service is good, the drinks are substantial and the music is generally outstanding. (6057 Forest Lane. 661-3393. Thur-Sat 9 pm-2 am. MC, V.)

The Sock Hop. What’s new at the Sock Hop? Better to ask what’s old. since the theme here is Fifties/ early Sixties, The Sock Hop has the front end of a ’57 Chevy, bebopping waitresses in cheerleader garb and other “Happy Days” regalia. Best of all. the house band. “Dash,” plays some of the best nostalgia rock in town. New management plans to import big-name acts like the Drifters, the Coasters and Tommy James. It’s a nice place to forget the Eighties. (2946 W Northwest Hwy. 352-6856. Tue-Sun 4 pm-2 am. Happy hour 4-7:30. No credit cards.)

St. Martin’s. St. Martin’s has been among our favorite romantic nightspots for some time. Now we’ve begun to enjoy its lunch specials as well. We don’t know of another place in town with such unassuming class, good service, pleasant classical music and an intelligent selection of wines. The recent crowds at St. Martin’s are making it a little more difficult to find a table on Friday and Saturday evenings. (3020 Greenville. 826-0940. Lunch: Mon-Fri 11 am-3 pm. Dinner: Mon-Thur 5 pm-11 pm: Fri 5 pm-1 am: Sat 11 am-1 am: Sun brunch 11:30 am-3 pm. All credit cards.)

Stoneleigh P. This is an artist’s bar. And a businessman’s bar. And a construction worker’s bar. And a housewife’s night-out-on-the-town bar. And just about anyone’s bar. There are no pretenses here, just a lot of open space and room to “do your own thing ” There’s a great jukebox, a varied selection of magazines and always an interesting assortment of people. (2926 Maple. 741 0824. Mon-Sat 11am-2am, Sun noon-midnight. Happy hour Mon-Fri 4-7. AE.)

Strictly TaBu. A recent return to the TaBu confirms our faith in Dallas’ best jazz bar if not just for the jazz -which is varied and lively-but for the easy, unpretentious atmosphere. We like the dining area in the back, where pizza and pasta are the highlights. This is the perfect place for a late-night rendezvous with an intimate stranger-or an old friend. (4111 Lomo Alto. 522-8101. Live music nightly at 9:30. Food served Mon-Thur 5 pm-midnight. Fri-Sat 6 pm-1 am, Sun 6 pm-midnight. Bar open Tue-Sat until 2 am, Sun and Mon until 1 am. All credit cards.)

Texas Tea House. The Tea House is a friendly, trendless c/w spot to drink beer and enjoy the harmony-lacking but good-natured Will Barnes Band. The beer is cold, the crowd is always rowdy and the bleachers (this is strictly a beer garden) aren’t too bad. unless the night is chilly. (3400 Kings Road. 526-9171. Tue-Sat 8 pm-2 am. No credit cards.)

The White Elephant Saloon. In 1887. Luke Short, then the owner of the White Elephant, shot it out with a former U.S. marshal. Now the Elephant has c/w music six nights a week and a lot of tourists trying desperately to learn to two-step on a small dance floor (106 E Exchange, Fort Worth. (817) 624-1887. Mon-Sat 11 am 2 am. Closed Sun. MC. AE, V.)

The Wine Press. From the floor to the very high ceil-ing of The Wine Press are racks upon racks of bottles of wine; therein lies the atmosphere of this artsy Oak Lawn brasserie. We enjoy sampling several different wines by the glass, and are particularly delighted with the flavor of the chocolate cheesecake The omelets are good, too, but skip the pasta (4217 Oak Lawn. 522-8720.
