Deep Ellum
The second half of her ninth birthday. Ice cream, milk tea, a capsule toy, and a pan-Asian dinner that was better than it needed to be.

Aini had a lot of fun here.
It was the afternoon half of her birthday, after an hour at the Crow Museum: ice cream, milk tea, and a capsule toy. The two make a natural pair, ten minutes apart, and between them they filled a day without any of it being scheduled tightly.
Hawkers Asian Street Food
Pan-Asian, and surprisingly tasty — the sort of place we went to without expectations and came out of talking about.
A note on birthdays here
Hers is usually at least a three-day event. This was one day of it.
The verdict
Worth the Saturday
Aini had a lot of fun. Pairs well with the Crow Museum in the morning, which is ten minutes away.
Last visited June 2026. We update a verdict when it stops being true, and say so here.
