I would stay in the 121/legacy/tollway frisco area
Scheels, the star, NFM, within 25 minutes of everything
BBQ Hutchins Frisco or Mckinney, Tender Frisco or Celina, Cattleack Farmers Branch
Or you could stay in Grapevine at the Gaylord or similar and see both Dallas and Ft Worth. FW has a lot of good BBQ also
All these places are north of the 121 line, Hint Go eat and hang out at Legacy West and Legacy East at the Plano/Frisco Border, cool place. Go to the Star in Frisco, Pretty neat place to spend some time as well. StoneBriar Mall in Frisco is also good place to kill some time. Nordstorms has a fantastic bar / restaurant on the upper floor, you can hang there while the wife shops.

Lmao
I posted a link to the Dallas World Aquarium at the start of this thread
Old city park would probably be a good place for a 30 month old if the weather is nice
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

I wonder if it’s the same one or different ones. It goes nuts!

As much respect I have for a good burger, I just can’t recommend a burger joint. You have to suggest what sort of food you’re after but seafood, Oceanaire. Steakhouse, at least Del Friscos. Mexican, shoot over to at least Mercado Juarez. It’ll just have to be arlington or Ft. Worth. The Dallas one [censored] down a few years ago.
If you said a specific area, it would SURE help things. Dallas is a big place.

Or just eat at each Papas restaurant at Lp12 and NW Hiway. None will disappoint, just bring headphones if you want a quiet dinner

Just say no to Dallas, go to Ft Worth, thank me later. Better to stay in North Dallas or Frisco area. Fort Worth is too far and the highways there are always undersconstruction, plus it looks old and dirty to me. Never been a fan of Fort Worth area.

Frisco sucks. If you hate traffic stay away. Arlington can be fun, and its not that far. Lower Greenville is more laid back than deep ellum. Agree fort worth is the best option, but its not close.
