Lifestyle Letter

S

pring is in the air, Frisco! That means pulling out those spring wardrobes, spring cleaning your homes and getting geared up for these warmer months is in full effect.

Tim Miller | Tim.Miller@LifestylePubs.com

When you think of "home" what comes to mind? Family?

Cozy? Safe? Love? Perhaps all of these?

Kristi Anderson | Kristi.Anderson@LifestylePubs.com

In this edition we will showcase a gorgeous sprawling Frisco home, give several options of home interior decorating items to modernize your home, as well as give ideas for your outdoor escape spaces that are often utilized all year around here in Texas during these warmer months. Pool time anyone?

Frisco continues to stay innovative in other aspects besides homes. The new restaurant Nerdvana for instance is geared for those techies at heart. Designed for patrons to enjoy their meal while, that's right, playing video games. How fun is that?

Whatever "home" means to you, we hope you enjoy it with the people you love the most.

March on, Frisco!

alling all nerds, techies, and the like.

Have you ever thought, why isn't there a restaurant where I can enjoy delicious food and play video games at once? Well, I am here to tell you there is, and it's in our home town! Nerdvana located on Main Street in Frisco opened its doors in late January and has taken Frisco techies by storm ever since.

The owner, Kristy Pitchford came up with the idea from her husband, Randy Pitchford, who is the CEO of Gearbox Software Company here in Frisco. Randy had visited a bar in Australia that had video game stations available where people played and socialized. Randy thought it was a great atmosphere and shared his experience with Kristy upon his return. Kristy agreed it sounded great and wanted to bring the concept here to Frisco. After some further brainstorming, and planning, Nerdvana came to fruition! They started by placing their wildly popular coffee shop, Nerdvana Coffee in the same building as Gearbox. After seeing the success the coffee shop had, they decided to expand on the brand, and did they ever! Nerdvana is a dream restaurant for any nerd out there!

Walking into Nerdvana, you are immediately transformed into your inner child as you see the gaming stations scattered around the bar and seating areas. They offer both old school games and current games as well. Kristy mentioned, "The goal is to make Nerdvana become a true community feeling, we want all of the nerds, techies, to feel like they have a place to come gather and share in on the experience; to develop a true nerd culture."

Video games are only part of what Nerdvana has to offer. Kristy mentioned what makes them stand out food wise, is they offer a made-from-scratch kitchen for their tasty menu items. Everything from their pastas, down to each sauce is made entirely from scratch by Mike Junio, executive chef and to keep it all in the family, he also happens to be Kristy's brother. The selections are fresh each time, as opposed to store bought or frozen.

Their menu includes delicious items such as Patty Melts, delicate salads and drinks inspired from certain video games. How fun!

This is an experience you don't want to miss.

After all, who could pass up playing a game of Mario Kart while eating some tasty bites?

he Spring and Summer months are upon us. What better way to enjoy the warmer months than the whole family cooling down in a refreshing swimming pool? Frisco residents have a number of pool companies to choose from. Hobert Pools is a highly recommended shining example of one. Having recently celebrated their forty-third year in business, they certainly have the experience and expertise to create the outdoor space of your dreams. When the owner Hobert Murphree began this company in 1975, he stated that, "Building a Hobert Pool is like a marriage, we're going to be together for a long time."

Hobert Pools have installed over 12,000 pools in the DFW area, and remain one the largest pool companies in Southwest Texas to date. Hobert Pools core values include both integrity and honesty. They are one of the few pool companies who offer service after the sale and are committed to providing the best service the entire time you own your pool.

Whether you want to add in a brand new sparkling pool, spa and outdoor space, or you want a remodel of your existing space, Hobert Pools will take care of your needs.

Hobert Pools makes sure to keep up with innovation of current technologies as well. Screenlogic is one example of this. Screenlogic is a free app that can be downloaded onto smartphones and tablets that Hobert Pools have interfaced with for their customers to use.

Screenlogic allows the customer to control their pool, spa and outdoor features from anywhere they are. For example, maybe it's been a long day at work, and getting into that hot tub after work sounds like the best idea - the customer can turn on their hot tub from work on their smartphone or tablet so the tub will be ready for them upon arrival. Where do I sign?

Another technology Hobert Pools offers is GloBright© Pool and Spa Color LED lighting. LED lights can create a luminous look that transforms your pool and spa to a main attraction in your backyard. Impress your party guests with the five different light color choices and seven pre-programmed light shows. The LED lights can also be integrated into the Screenlogic system for each owner to control with their smart phone or tablet.

Hobert Pools prides themselves in being a company that garners new customers from referrals of current and/or previous customers. As the Ruiz family stated, “We already referred one neighbor to Hobert Pools. They are in the process of negotiations. We love our pool, it’s the perfect size and beautiful. We are also using the Hobert maintenance and love it!”

If you're in the market for a new pool or a remodel, contact Hobert Pools at 972690-8118. Hobert Pools views all of their customers as family.

CELEBRITY CHEF KENT RATHBUN ARTICLE TIMOTHY CHASE

W

hat do the President, National Football League, and the Food Network all have in common? They all have enjoyed a meal prepared

by Texas-based celebrity chef Kent Rathbun!

When you explore the Dallas fine dining scene Kent’s name is undoubtedly going to be at the top of your list with his cuisine concepts among some of the best restaurants in the state.

However, before he became chef to the Dallas Cowboys, Kent’s cooking roots sprouted while growing up in Kansas City. By the young age of five, Kent could be found helping his dad prepare the home grill and learning how to create a tender, smoked brisket. He watched his mother develop her own culinary career as a maitre d’ at high-end restaurants in the area, as her joy for hospitality kept restaurant patrons coming back, sometimes driving over fifty miles, just to be served by her.

Kent’s passion for culinary arts continued to expand throughout his teenage years, and he became an apprentice at La Bonne Auberge, a five-star French restaurant in Kansas City.

His experience of working with high-end ingredients and learning the art of perfect 28

Frisco Life | March 2017

Chef Kent Rathbun

Chef At Work

preparation became the bedrock of his career as he moved from kitchen to kitchen, working with some of the most creative teams in the the country including Mr. B’s in New Orleans, The Mansion on Turtle Creek in Dallas and many others.

“I had an affinity for food at a young age, but it wasn’t until I was 21 that I realized I wanted to make this a career and got my first chef position,” shared Kent. “It was amazing to have people come to the restaurant, eat my food and have them respond to what I was cooking.”

As Kent matured as a culinary artist, he outgrew the solo-chef mentality of wanting to work with only certain foods and cooking for the mere sake of impressing others. He learned not only the intricacies of the business side of the restaurant industry, but the joy of the service end as well.

“As you develop as a chef you realize that the people you have around you are the most important thing,” shared Kent. “Building a team of people who are interested in moving

in the same direction, and motivating them to do the best that they can do is the only way to be a successful chef.”

Eventually, Rathbun decided to take his culinary vision to the next level and set out to establish a world-class restaurant in the heart of Dallas’ uptown district. Within months his eclectic and distinctive menu concept received recognition as a pinnacle of fine dining locally and on the national scene.

“I want to be true to the food I am working with,” shared Kent. I want to know about it, understand its ingredients, texture and history; and every time I develop a menu I try to step it up and offer guests a great selection of balanced choices for guests.”

Over the years, Kent’s multiple culinary projects in both the restaurant and event hospitality sectors have flourished; along with TV appearances on The Food Network, the CBS Early Show, the Today Show on NBC, and as a competitor on “Iron Chef America” - defeating grill master Bobby Flay in an

intense culinary battle. For all his acclaim, Kent still makes time to connect with the community by participating in several local and national charitable organizations, as well as cooking for the Pre-Super Bowl event, “The Taste of the NFL” for the last ten years.

And connecting with the Frisco community is exactly what Kent is hoping to do this month by bringing his renowned cooking style of Texas BBQ , meets fine dining to residents at a private outdoor grilling master class on Saturday, March 18 at Premier Grilling in Frisco off of Eldorado Parkway next to Target. Kent will be teaching best practices for the upcoming grilling season with an A-Z instruction on techniques, the top cooking tools to work with and how to care for them, and the steps to making a great outdoor steak. Plus, the class will include craft beer samples to enjoy while attendees learn how to make sure whatever comes off the grill is delicious enough to consider as fine dining.
