Fat Mo’s – Murfreesboro, TN
My original plan for Saturday morning included having breakfast in downtown Nashville. The first restaurant that I tried had a line out the door and down the street, so I went to the second. They told me that there was an estimated forty-five minute wait. For breakfast? For one? I ultimately ended up skipping breakfast […]
Rotier’s Restaurant – Nashville, TN
I had decided, on the drive up to Nashville, that this was the day to try Rotier’s Restaurant for a burger. They’ve been atop Nashville’s best burger list for years. Located in Nashville’s West End, the parking is, effectively, non-existent. There is street parking available (a total of about five spots in front of the […]
Sweet Auburn Curb Market – Atlanta, GA
After first hearing about Bell Street Burritos in Atlanta Magazine (back in the March, 2012 “Cheap Eats” edition), I’ve been meaning to get by there. They had opened a location on Howell Mill, which I believed would surely be easier to get to than the Sweet Auburn Curb Market. But it closed without me ever […]
Ten Atlanta – Atlanta, GA
Capping off a weekend of dining in re-purposed restaurants (after a disappointing lunch at S’more BBQ), we ended up at Ten Atlanta for brunch on Sunday, in the former Five Napkin Burger space. Here’s the question that I’m sure is on your mind, if you’ve looked at the link to the restaurant: How did we […]
Ann’s Snack Bar (re-visited) – Atlanta, GA – CLOSED
THIS RESTAURANT IS CLOSED. It’s been almost three years since our series of visits to Ann’s Snack Bar. We went. Then we took our girls. Then we took my parents (that was a hoot). As we prepared for a weekend-long birthday celebration, Jo asked what I wanted to do this weekend – a long-delayed revisit […]
Stella’s Hamburgers – Bellevue, NE
As I was heading back home on a business trip out of Omaha, I realized that I had just enough time before I had to be at the airport to make one burger stop. I had checked Hamburger America and all of my lists on Sunday night and the only place that was a possibility […]
Dizzy Whiz – Louisville, KY
On the way home from the track, I was starving – the mozzarella and tomato sandwich from noon time was long gone. As we were getting back on the road, I remember having seen the sign on I-65 for Dizzy Whiz (since 1947). I searched for their address on my phone and we headed in […]
Black and Orange – Washington, DC
In DC for a business meeting, I decided to blow off the cocktail party and go for a walk – to the Jefferson Memorial. In all of the years that I’ve been traveling to the Capitol, I have been fortunate enough to see most of the monuments except for those on the southern-most side of […]
Minetta Tavern – NYC
As we were finishing up the weekend in New York, we headed down to Greenwich Village for Sunday brunch at Minetta Tavern. For the majority of the weekend it had rained, so when we woke up and the sun was (almost) shining, we decided to walk the forty blocks to brunch. Now these were short […]
Trailer Park Lounge – NYC
After lunch at Adrienne’s Pizzabar, we took a taxi up to Chelsea Market at 16th street for some shopping and then walking around in the rain. As we headed back up town, towards Times Square, I began working up a burger appetite. I consulted the Hamburger America app and found that there were two choices […]
