Bob Robertson opened Aw Shucks Oyster Bar in 1983 with the goal of bringing an authentic seafood shack to Dallas.

More than 40 years later, the restaurant has opened four additional locations, including Big Shucks in Richardson and Aw Shucks in Frisco, but the restaurant hasn’t deviated from that original goal under the ownership of Bob’s sons—Eric and Nick Peterson.

On the menu: The food at Big Shucks revolves around sourcing fresh seafood three times a week and preparing it “very simply,” Nick Peterson said.

“We are going to do Gulf seafood on your plate as fresh as we possibly can get it,” Eric Peterson said. “That's the secret. The secret is that there is no secret. It's not a matter of having a five-star Michelin chef in the back, or anything like that. We get good stuff, and we don't compromise on that ever.”

“We want to make it as comfortable and inviting as possible, just like a seafood shack on the side of the ocean,” Nick Peterson said.

Argentine Tango School is now open in Richardson, offering beginner, intermediate and advanced dance classes, as well as classes for social dancing, stage performance and wedding dances.

A closer look: In addition to technique classes, the school offers fitness and workout tango classes and a virtual tango program. The school provides class opportunities for individuals, couples and groups. Starting in June, Argentine Tango School will host a milonga every Friday, a social Argentine tango dance event.

Argentine tango performers Hugo Patyn and Celina Rotundo, the founders and directors of the school, have over 30 years of experience teaching and performing in more than 40 countries, according to the website.
