A couple years ago Jimmy John’s came to the Dallas market and those who had experienced Jimmy John’s from another market were quite excited about this arrival. Jimmy John’s was started by a 19 year old over 27 years ago in Illinois.

Mi Cocina in West Village
3699 McKinney Ave Dallas
I recently took a friend to Mi Cocina in West Village. Mi Cocina in English means “My Kitchen” but it actually stands for delicious Mexican food!
Mi Cocina has multiple locations in the Dallas area, I’ve been to three locations in Dallas city and each of them has their own personality. My first experience with Mi Cocina was with the Preston & Forest location. This location appears more family oriented, in the corner there was a...
