This serving of restaurant news runs from the exclusive world of top chef popups, to the opening of another restaurant dedicated to chicken tenders. There's also important developments in the key categories of pizza and tacos.

Here's what's happening in Fort Worth restaurant news:

Le Bureau will be open February 7-10, from 6-9 pm, in Love's test kitchen inside his company headquarters at 713 N. Main St. The five-course menu includes potato leek soup, rabbit terrine, poached oysters and caviar, celery root carpaccio, langoustine-black truffle ravioli, squab roulade, scallops, duck a l’orange, apple-cheddar galette, blackberry clafoutis, and chocolate caramel truffles, and is accompanied by bubbly, two glasses of wine, aperitif, and coffee.

Golden Chick, known for golden tenders and marinated golden fried chicken, has opened a new location at 2870 Cleburne Rd., mere blocks from TCU. It's the seventh Golden Chick in Fort Worth and the 178th location overall. Local franchisees are Scott Pierce and Audrey Busby-Pierce. Golden Chick also offers a variety of chef-inspired menu items, including chicken salad and their "almost world famous" yeast rolls.

Pie Five, the quick-serve pizza chain, has introduced a super-trendy new item: a crust made out of cauliflower. Pie Five VP Christina Coy explains that "cauliflower is exploding in popularity due to its taste and amazing health benefits," which include vitamin C, phytochemicals, anti-inflammatory compounds, and antioxidants. Cauliflower is also thought to help improve digestion and detoxification. What doesn't it do? The new crust will be added to Pie Five's existing crust options — crispy artisan thin, classic pan, traditional Italian, and gluten-free. But do not delay: The cauliflower crust will be available only through February 11.

Hwy 55 Burgers, Shakes & Fries, the retro chain known for burgers, shakes, and fries, is branching out into a new category: salads. What? It's true. There's a spicy shrimp salad, a Cobb, and a garden salad. Other new options include a BLT with an excessive 5 slices of bacon; and a chicken cheesesteak, which seems to defy the definition of a cheesesteak. The chain's Shake-Shack-ian foray into crinkle-cut fries was met with complaints by customers who missed the old straight-cut fries, so they are back, along with a new side of tater tots. The North Carolina chain has 135 restaurants in 12 states, including a branch in Bedford.

Snuffer's now has 12 restaurants throughout North Texas, including South Arlington and Southlake.
