One Arts Plaza's highly anticipated "modern southern kitchen" Screen Door flung open its doors Saturday night for a private fete. Owner Scott Jones (of Cafe Italia fame) was happily working the crowd while exec chef Fitzgerald Dodd (whose résumé includes stints at Hotel ZaZa, Voltaire, the Crescent Hotel and Star Canyon) kept the bites coming.

We sampled everything from griddled ham and cheese sliders and the BLT (as in house-cured Bacon, poached Lobster and heirloom Tomato salad) to dessert bites such as the praline pecan chocolate tart.

More chic touches: The servers wore custom button-down shirts by Southern designer Billy Reid and offered handmade mint juleps in antique-style silver cups.

Lunch service starts today with dinner service following in two weeks. Our suggestion? Make your reservation early.

Screen Door, One Arts Plaza, 214-720-9111, screendoordallas.com
