"Cathay Inn on Airline Highway is generational for One11 Hotel chef de cuisine Kelly Grillot. When he’s not cooking at home for his partner and their little one, the craving is Chinese. “My family would always eat there when we were kids so it brings back fond memories,” says the chef. For a kid-free night, it’s Turtle Bay for a steak and an adult beverage, and a nightcap at his local bar, Pink St. Pub." - Beth D'Addono
