Chuy's is really good as far as Tex-Mex goes, even if they are expanding at a pretty rampant pace. I haven't noticed that they've steered too far away from the original product that you could get at their super cool location at Barton Springs in Austin.
Fort Worth probably has a better reputation for BBQ than Dallas. You can't go wrong with Railhead - good food, cold beer, and a huge happy hour social scene. A couple of the legendary rural BBQ joints like Cooper's and Hard 8 have opened locations in D/FW. Some of the outlying suburbs around Fort Worth feature really good BBQ as well.
If you want Texas style BBQ, steer clear of Red, Hot, and Blue. It's more Memphis style, although I would say it's been mutated over the years to conform more with the preferences of people in this area.

FT is a great park that's worth the drive (well, given that I live in Fort Worth and it and Sea World are the only decent parks in driving distance). You could definitely spend a day there (they have great shows apparently...I've never been a show watcher) between the rides, the atmosphere, and Iron Rattler.
When a beautiful girl singing Motown songs comes over and snuggles up to me.....that's a great show! ;~P
IIRC, when Bizarro (S:RoS at the time) had a fatal ejection it was closed for the rest of the season and didn't open until the trains could be modified. I would be surprised if the same thing didn't happen here (though I'm also surprised that Outlaw Run didn't stop operation at all, but I guess it's different trains).

Chuy's is really good, especially their chicken tortilla soup (wow, it wasn't burritos this time).
Does anyone know if they are planning on making any modifications to the restraints or anything for NTaG? Is IR being affected in any way?
I don't think I'll be allowed to go out to SFFT for a long time. :( It'll be a really long time till I get on any coaster after my parents saw NTaG on CNN.
What just happened? Tek bashes egoman. Tyler follows up with his egoman bash. Tek tells Tyler to stay on topic? Tyler agrees and apologizes? lol

I think we should have a Coasterbuzz rule that we don't care at all about what any other website does and we certainly don't need to define ourselves against anyone else.
