Dallas and Houston both have malls called the Galleria built by the same developer, with the same design (somewhat patterned after the original Galleria with the arched glass celing in Milan), with similar upscale stores, and with similar ice skating rinks. I doubt the differences in retail offerings between the two metros are that different.

Your forgetting Dallas also has Northpark. Galleria is just considered a nice mall compared to it.
Dallasites love to shop and eat out.
The shops and restaurants are there as a distraction from the miserable surroundings and overall malaise of where they reside.
That's pretty much the only thing we can choose from. What else is there to do here?
Dallas has great shopping destinations IMO...I haven't given Houston enough of a chance to make a judgment, though.
When I owned a gift store, I thought the Dallas Market Center was the best merchandise center in the country.

LOL! With the exception of a few little parks (mainly near downtown), Dallas metro is a dry, treeless prairie. Blah.
What's sad is that Houston ranks higher (in food publications and Forbes) as a restaurant city. And the shopping is fairly comparable. And so much more beautiful than Dallas, with all the huge trees and greenery, little waterways and lakes, boating and fishing on the southeast side, and beaches nearby.
Why are you sorry? You summed up Dallas in one sentence.
No he did not in anyway sum up Dallas in that sentence. Nobody in Dallas wants to be Californians for one. And I HARDLY see Cowboys in Dallas unless you see Terrell Owens and Marion barber walking around the streets everyday.

LOL, you're so right! Who would want to bother with Dallas when they have all this scenic beauty 4 hrs away in Houston.
The Galleria in Houston is about as old as Astroworld (which isn't even around anymore). It is an OK mall, but I think you need to re-evaluate Scottsdale and hellas stupid.
Since it "appears" obvious that you haven't visited Scottsdale or know much about its shopping, do you research through wikipedia, and then let's chat.
I've been to Scottsdale, Fashion Square is where anything close to "upscale" is. I can give you a list of stores that aren't in Scottsdale that Houston and Dallas have had for years.
But define what you consider "upscale", because there's a huge difference between Ralph Lauren and Polo, and between Giorgio Armani and Emporio Armani I hope you know.
I'm not doing any research on wikipedia, that thing is edited by bigger idiots than you .
