If sheltering in place is starting to feel like living in a rut, feel good about getting out by supporting different restaurants — all while following CDC guidelines. With new Texas waivers and even more restaurants offering curbside and delivery, it’s even easier to get a sampling of Southlake’s signature dishes.
Known for its exquisite plates and tasty flavors, Malai Kitchen offers something unique to the Southlake dining scene. Now with curbside takeout and delivery, it’s even easier to try out a range of its dishes. Start your evening on the right foot by ordering drinks and appetizers from the modern Southeast Asian eatery. Whether you go for the Thai PA — the house IPA brewed with lemongrass, ginger and turmeric — or a Mekong Mule made with Hangar One Vodka, ginger beer, cucumber, mint, lime and Thai basil, its flavorful concoctions validate why Malai Kitchen is a go-to date night spot in Southlake. Add on the shrimp spring rolls or fried imperial rolls to appease your appetite. MalaiKitchen.com
After picking up Malai, head over to Southlake Town Square to pick up family favorites from Thailicious. Start out with a refreshing drink, like a Poppin’ Pearls iced tea or Thai iced coffee. Its curbside and delivery menu includes feelgood soups like its classic tom yum soup as well as its delicious starters — pork potstickers and chicken satay and toast to name a few. And its pho noodle soup satisfies that craving for something warm and comforting. Share a few of the main entrees to get a real feel for its offerings, like its spicy Scallops Wild Bangkok and Crispy Basil Duck. It may be a lot of food, but it also supplies plenty of leftovers for your family to enjoy for the days to come. And what’s more romantic than the promise of not having to cook another meal at home?

If you’ve polished off your plates at home and still have a hankering for a treat, rest assured that Buttermilk Sky Pie Shop in Colleyville will deliver. The classic bakery is still cooking up fresh pies daily, including its beloved granny’s apple, chocolate cream, key lime and coconut cream. If you and your significant other have different favorite flavors, order a few mini pies, coming out at 4 inches each, instead of one 9-inch classic variety. Those eager for games to play at home should order a few different kinds to see which is the family favorite. After selecting a winner, your family can look forward to enjoying a classic pie together in the store. Because we all need something sweet to look forward to. ButtermilkSkyPie.com
