Tips for Entertaining Guests this Summer in Richardson

Sure, any time of year is a good time to have friends over, but trying to host an event during these hot Texas summers can be hard. To help you out with this, Dal-Rich Towne Square in Richardson is sharing a few tips for entertaining guests this summer.

Summertime Dinnerware

No one wants to break out their fine china for a summer cookout, but no one really wants to mess with those flimsy paper plate either! The solution? Get some great summer dinnerware that will make your guests feel like they’re in a summertime paradise.

Easy-Breezy Outdoor Furniture

Just sitting out in the summer sun can be pretty brutal, especially if your outdoor furniture isn’t meant for Texas summer kind of heat. Go get some great outdoor furniture that is comfy and breathable to ensure that your guests can simply chill and relax when you’re all outside.

Light Up the Night

Who says the fun levels have to go down when the sun does? Summer may mean longer days, but they never seem long enough when they’re spent with friends and family! Keep the fun going into the night with some great outdoor lighting that will illuminate your backyard. You have plenty of options for lighting too, as you could hang string lights, do a few flood lights, have some spiked in the ground or have a great mixture of all three. However you decide to light up the night, you and your guests are sure to enjoy the cool night air.

Make sure that you’re the host(ess) with the most(ess) this summer by making sure you at least stick to these three great tips for entertaining guests. We hope they help you have great time and make lasting memories with your friends and family.

Valentine’s Day in Richardson at Dal Rich Towne Center

Valentine’s Day, the most romantic day of the year. Love is in the air, Cupid is drawing back his bow, hearts are on fire, and your go-to restaurant was probably booked solid about 2 months ago. Don’t panic. There’s no need to test out your smoke alarm by trying to recreate your nana’s famous French cassoulet or spelling out “Be Mine” in votives on the living room floor. Dal Rich Towne Center has your perfect Valentine’s Day covered. Spend Valentine’s Day in Richardson this year!

If you’re a traditionalist, V-Day means foregoing your typical weekday fare and indulging in a special meal. Looking for something exotic to spice up the night? Sigree Bar and Grill offers zesty Indian curries, savory biryanis, and smokey tandoor meats. Try Thai Soon Restaurant and nosh on their signature Panang curry or Pad Kee Mow, and top it off with traditional sticky rice for dessert. Are oysters your aphrodisiac? Big Shucks serves up succulent Gulf oysters, raw, fried, and po-boy style, along with all of your classic favorites from the sea. Want to literally share a meal with your loved one? Try Imperial Chef’s dry hot pot for 2 with your choice of meat or seafood. Last, but not least, end the evening on a sweet note at sweetFrog. Fill a bowl with delicious flavors of frozen yogurt such as pomegranate raspberry tart, creamy mint cookie, or eggnog and add your toppings of choice (did somebody say gummi worms? Mochi? Lemon cake?).

Food isn’t the only way to celebrate Valentine’s Day, however. If you’d rather spend the day relaxing and being pampered, check into Love Thyself Day Spa and indulge in some “you time”. With over 15 different types of massages to choose from, body wraps and detoxes, skin and hair care, and mani-pedis, your day will peacefully flow on without a care. If you’d rather have “we time”, schedule a couple’s massage and spa treatments with your significant other. Want to get that perfectly soothed and manicured body into motion? Roll out your mat and explore your chakras at Sun Yoga Center. Eight different yoga styles are practiced throughout the day as well as a special tai chi class.

Of course, Valentine’s Day is not complete without gifts! Be it for your loved one or for yourself, Dal Rich Towne Center has that special gift you’re looking for. Browse the aisles of Cottonwood Market Antique Mall and find treasures that have stood the test of time. From vintage clothes and vintage jewelry to designer furniture and home decor, hand-selected gifts from Richardson’s will set hearts a-flutter. If a tangible gift isn’t your style, however, pick up a gift card to a restaurant, the day spa, J.Michael’s Salon, Nail Times, or Signature Hair.

Now get out there and celebrate! Happy Valentine’s Day, everyone!

Dal Rich Towne Square Welcomes JC’s Burger House

JC’s Burger House is a local legend. Having emerged in the late nineties to fill a void in burger restaurants, the owners began by using fresh prime beef which they grind in-house with a prefect blend of seasonings and spices. From this starting point menu items are a delectable and unique treat for patrons that aren’t satisfied with bland frozen patties and prepackaged fast food sides.

JC’s quickly grew to a chain of seven restaurants which all feature the same high standards and an open kitchen design to inspire confidence in the cooking process and show off the fabulous creations as they are made. Customers will enjoy the casual ambiance and pride of service in the new JC’s Burger House coming to the Dal Rich Towne Center. The menu is fun and fresh with something to offer all foodies. The carb counters will love Benny’s Bunless Burger which is served sans bread but loaded with toppings and tastiness. But for those with a huge appetite, check out the Toddzilla! Described as the “Mt. Everest of burgers”, customers can even take the Toddzilla challenge. Winners have their photos featured on the wall of the restaurant. But if beef isn’t your thing, order the chicken sandwich. Boss’s Chicken Sandwich is smothered in Swiss cheese, green chilis, and ranch dressing. Yum!

The Dal Rich Towne Square is thrilled to welcome JC’s Burger House to our fine collection of unique restaurants and shops. This quintessentially local and hugely popular restaurant is sure to please diners and the neighborhood overall. JC’s is committed to engaging with the area. They look forward to participating in local and community fundraising and promotional events. The addition of JC’s Burger House to the Dal Rich Towne Square will benefit the entire area for years to come.

Perfect Fall Home Decor Ideas

As we steadily head into the Autumn season, you may find it’s time to take down the bright summer décor that you once displayed throughout your home and bring in some elements of fall instead. From adding fall scents like pumpkin spice and apple cider, to creating wonderful floral arrangements and natural focal points, there are hundreds of ways to celebrate and enjoy everyone’s favorite harvest months. Let’s explore some perfect fall home decor ideas in this blog:

Pumpkins: The reining grand supreme of fall décor for years, pumpkins provide a beautiful range of possibilities for all of your Autumn decorating needs. Whether you paint them, carve them, stack them or hollow them out and use them as planters for your favorite fall flowers, these orange décor classics are the versatile trademark of all things fall. Place a few on your front porch for instant seasonal appeal, or bring them inside and try decoupage for a more modernized, trendy look.

Making an Autumn Wreath: Wreaths have long been a favorite Fall décor go-to, and this year is no exception as they remain an ever popular trend in seasonal home style. Look for elements like pine cones, Indian corn, or leaves to dress up the front door of your home or simply to create an interesting addition to any interior wall arrangement. You can purchase one from your favorite store, or get creative and start a simple, fun DIY project.

Incorporating Leaves: One of the simplest and most charming long time trends of fall includes bringing the look and feel of fall inside using nothing more than gorgeous fall foliage. Sprinkling a colorful mix of Autumn leaves on various areas in your home-shelves, tables, etc.-is easy and makes the entire room feel like a walk through a fall wonderland. You can choose to stay natural and grab leaves from your own backyard or purchase faux leaves and reuse them year after year. Leaves are also a great addition to bouquets and centerpieces.

There are many more ways to create a perfect fall theme for your home, but the important thing is that you and your family have fun making the look all your own. From the hundreds of ways to combine natural elements with new trends, it’s no wonder Autumn is everyone’s favorite time to decorate. However you decide to bring the harvest into your house this season, make it unique, make it trendy, make it yours!

Unique Finds at Cottonwood Market
