Update: From the Oak Cliff edition of the Advocate - "Can't wait to find out what's in store for the Cliff Cafe? Did you hear the rumor that they're installing a smoker? We heard that, too. Unveiling of the Cliff Cafe's new concept is still some six weeks away, but maybe you can get a glimpse of what's in store at a Belmont Hotel picnic Aug. 6. The restaurant's new chef, Tim Byres, is going to be working the grill. The media release promises "BBQ and fixin's." Besides that, they'll have $2 beers with a $5 cover. The party, at the hotel's glam-tastic pool, starts at 7 p.m. The King Bucks play from 9-11 p.m."
I'll see you there.

According to the Dallas Observer, the Cliff Cafe is about to get a facelift and a concept overhaul. The owners, who also own the wildly popular Bolsa, are looking to turn it into a "semi-upscale barbecue joint, adhering loosely to Bolsa's local and seasonal mantra." You know I can't wait to see how this upscale BBQ joint comes to fruition. Austin and Houston each have one (Lambert's and Beaver's), so I guess it's DFW's turn. Here's hoping that brisket is always in season.
