I was in the vicinity of Tulsa Hills Shopping Center on Sunday and took a spin through the sprawling complex to see if something was happening I wasn't aware of.

Granted, the weather was perfect, but, holy cow, most of the stores and virtually every restaurant were packed. This was around 1:30 p.m. All but a couple of the restaurants in there are chains, but their parking lots were full, from the new Cracker Barrel to Chili's, Smashburger, Buffalo Wild Wings, Logan's Roadhouse -- even Whataburger, and five or six more; I lost count.

I know that area is booming, I just didn't know how much. A new Hideaway Pizza is coming soon, and who knows what else? Hopefully, a few more locals can follow Tropical Smoothie and Piatto Cucina into the area, as well.
