'Tis the season for holiday drinking and merry-making, so it seems only responsible that we give some attention to bar snacks. After all, it's important to have a buffer against all that booze. Almost every bar has food of some kind, whether it be a bowl of peanuts on the bar or a full menu of deep-fried frozen fare like cheese sticks and potato skins. But if you want something a little more, shall we say, advanced to go with your cocktail, there's plenty of places around Dallas taking bar food to the next level. Here, we've compiled a map of 10 of the tastiest bar snacks available in the city. While a few are holdovers from last year's list, most are new selections, and all of them are worth your time next time you find yourself in need of a stiff drink or a beer and a tasty bite.
