Every year around this time, we crave fried everything. Call it the Big Tex Effect. This pick from Jonathon\u2019s Diner is big, all right, and just about as Texas as it gets.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Dating back to 2011 when Christine and Jonathon Erdeljac opened the first location of their mom-and-pop restaurant, Chef Jon\u2019s Chicken and Biscuit debuted as a weekly special. The plate proved so popular it was quickly added to the regular menu. Now there are two Jonathon\u2019s Diners, and this hunka-hunka brunchin\u2019 love has earned a cult following among Oak Cliff and Forestwood regulars alike.<\/p>\n

Jonathon\u2019s Diner: 1619 N. Beckley Avenue and 5337 Forest Lane<\/p>\n

Do This: Rozies Fried Rice Pop-Up at Easy Slider<\/p>\n

Sunday, September 27, 1-5 p.m.
Reservations available via Eventbrite<\/a><\/p>\n

On Sunday evening, the latest in Easy Slider\u2019s pop-up series will combine dinner and a show. Chef Pierre Trevino of the roving Thai-inspired kitchen, Rozies Fried Rice, will be wok-frying live outside the Deep Ellum-adjacent joint. Plus, even more Asian-infused flavors will be available inside.<\/p>\n

The word on the street is that you\u2019ll be able to follow the scent of wok-fried rice with roasted mushrooms, leeks, and Fresno chili vinegar through the neighborhood to Easy Slider once Chef Pierre lights his fire. Additional one-night-only dishes will include: September rolls with Japanese sweet potato and miso kale, charcoal chicken satay, stir-fried Thai basil pork, and black soy noodles with grilled cauliflower. Margaritas from Espol\u00f2n Tequila will complement the meal.<\/p>\n
