Chef Tatsuya Sekiguchi also learned how to sign the entire tasting menu. My sister said she saw a printout behind the bar of how to sign parts of the menu. It blew her away and nearly brought me to tears. Here’s a video of him signing some menu items.

🧵 Dining critic @bgreinhart wrote a stellar review of Tatsu Dallas, an omakase restaurant that is one of the city’s hardest reservations. I’ve visited & love it a lot. The food is unmatched. But I want to tell you about the service at Tatsu Dallas.

NEW: A 25 y/o woman is suing Dallas Cowboys owner Jerry Jones and alleges that he is her biological father. Court docs say Jones & the woman's mother agreed on a settlement to financially support them as long as they didn’t say he was the father.

Service is something that I’ve always been interested in, but this takes the cake. My sister and her husband came home and raved about their dinner. Brian says no detail goes unnoticed at Tatsu Dallas. It’s true. Tatsu Dallas is one of a kind.

The team sent over the tasting menu ahead of time, which allowed my sister and her husband to get an idea of what the night would look like. They were happy with that. But when they arrived at the restaurant on the night of their reservation, they were greeted in ASL.

She knew the hype behind the omakase tasting menu, and she understood that a lot of the meal is intimate and explained by word of mouth. My sister and her husband are Deaf, and it’s sometimes hard for them to communicate. She emailed Tatsu Dallas about accommodations.

It took 2 decades for DFW Turnpike to be paid off after it opened in 1957. It's now called I-30, & it's toll-free. Today NTTA owes $9.3B in bonds for the toll roads in its system. Will we ever see the day when toll roads are paid off?
