PC Moment: On the eve of its official opening date, hungry guests packed the newest Del Frisco’s location to feast on corndog-battered lobster tails, jalapeño-bacon burger sliders, cheesesteak eggrolls, breaded mussels, shrimp, crab legs, and oysters.
Del Frisco’s is the second of many hot restaurants opening at the new Legacy West development (Shake Shack opened its doors at the end of March). The glamorous 14,000-square-foot, two-story space features two bars, five dining areas, four private dining spaces, patios, and a wine wall stacked with 9,000 bottles of vino.
Mingling Out West: Legacy West developer Fehmi Karahan, Del Frisco’s Restaurant Group CEO Norman Abdallah, Plano restaurant general manager Ann Thibert, Plano mayor Harry LaRosiliere, executive chef Craig Walter, Newy Scruggs, Tyrone Crawford, Jason Hatcher, Ed and Ellen Murphy, Ray and Wendy Harmon, Don and Jane Wood, Ryan and Brittany Martin, Jeremy and Jennifer Hartly, Julie and Mark Bryce, Sherrie and Juan Salas, Sarah and Steve McAloon, and David and Nancy Kerr.
