In this special episode of Eat Drink D-FW, food editor Erin Booke talks with food reporters Sarah Blaskovich and Claire Ballor about the stories behind D-FW’s oldest, most historical restaurants. Sarah talks about her research methodology, why oral history is important, and how wonderful it is that Fort Worth seems to preserve its dining history so well. Then you’ll hear from Gene Dunston, the 91-year-old owner of Dunston’s Steakhouse: He’s got tons of stories. And [spoiler alert], we also talk about possibly the boldest Shark Tank restaurant proposal yet, and if Dallas is ready for swankier dining dress codes.
