Philadelphia Nestie - Visiting Arlington , TX - need some recs
Hi I am coming to stay in Arlington for my new SIL's baby shower. My brothers new wife is from Arlington so my mom, grandmother and I are going to stay for a weekend in July.
We are staying at the Hilton, Arlington - 1st question is this hotel nice?
What is it near for eating and entertainment, we are staying Friday - Sunday and have a rental car ( Remember I'll be with mom and grandmom )
Baby Shower is being thrown at the Shady Valley Country Club an afternoon lunch - so I was wondering dress code? Is a sun dress with heals appropriate?
Thanks in advance
Re: Philadelphia Nestie - Visiting Arlington , TX - need some recs
Try Chef's Bistro in Arlington. It changed owners recently but before the switch (I don't think anything has changed yet) it is a great place for lunch or breakfast on Saturdays
That hotel is near tons of restaurants, you'll pretty much have your pick.
The hotel itself is nice. You'll be right next to Six Flags - which means lots of restaurants near by. Just a heads up - there is a lot of construction along I-30 due to the Cowboys new stadium in that area.
Some options for entertainment (
- Arlington Highlands - large, outdoor shopping area.
- Fort Worth Stockyards - see a cattle drive and experience "Texas". There are some restuarants and a little bit of shopping.
- Modern Art Museum, Kimball Art Museum - both in Fort Worth and good indoor activites - it will be HOT in July.
IMO - You'll have better luck finding things to do in Fort Worth - Arlington is boring.
As far as the dress code - I've never been in the Shady Valley Country Club, just driven by a couple of times - I think your outfit would fine.
Let me know if you have any other questions.
