Golden Rule Bar-B-Q and Grill – Irondale, AL

Back in the late 1990s, I ended up traveling to Birmingham often.  And by often, I mean a lot.   Over the course of about three years, I probably drove back and forth between Birmingham and Atlanta at least twenty times.  Every one of those times, I drove by this sign for Golden Rule Bar-B-Q […]

Larkburger – Arvada, CO

As the first culinary stop on a journey to the Telluride Bluegrass Festival, we stopped to meet a friend who had just moved to Denver from DFW. Knowing that he was new to the area, and that we had a seven and a half hour drive ahead of us, we decided on a spot close […]

Diablo Burger – Flagstaff, AZ

On the way to our great American adventure hike, as we drove north from the Phoenix airport we needed some lunch.  Checking the Hamburger America app, I saw a green pin in Flagstaff and we headed toward that address.  We parked downtown and went to wandering, looking for Diablo Burger. We walked by the place […]

Farm Burger – Atlanta, GA

I have wanted to try Farm Burger, in Decatur, since right after it opened. This afternoon, being given the freedom to choose lunch, and realizing that FB had a location on Piedmont Road in Buckhead, the opportunity was taken.  We arrived for a late lunch (around 2:30) and the joint was jumping.   Apparently, everyone else […]

Muss & Turner’s – Atlanta, GA

Since we discovered Muss & Turner’s about two years ago, we’ve eaten there at least once a month, often twice.  It’s a convenient  choice, either if we’re in the Vinings area, or, since it is only about a twenty-five minute drive from the house, most any other time.  We have a couple of favorites that […]

Cheeseburger Bobby’s – Hiram, GA

Ever since the first time that we visited Cheeseburger Bobby’s, I’d written it off as a local version of a Fuddrucker’s.  But as we discussed driving to Five Guys for dinner, we remembered that a) Cheeseburger Bobby’s is closer and b) I like their french fries better, so it became our dinner destination.  One of […]

Yeah! Burger – Atlanta, GA

Looking back, I can’t believe that I haven’t said anything about Yeah! Burger.  We eat there about once every three weeks.  It’s really quote simple: I ask Jo where she wants to eat, and, regardless of where we are or when it is, she says, “Yeah! Burger”.  The concept is near perfect: they use natural […]

Local Three – Atlanta, GA

(This is actually a compendium of several visits) One of our favorite dinner / lunch spots is Muss & Turner’s in Vinings.  When we saw that they were opening a new restaurant with chef Chris Hall, Local Three Kitchen & Bar, we got excited.  They took over the old Jo-el space off Paces Ferry. Our […]

Village Burger – Dunwoody, GA

Over the last couple of months, I’ve seen several mentions of Village Burger – on a great website (roadfood.com) referred by a friend – actually he was pointing out the peach donuts in California, but I searched for Georgia places, on one of my favorite blogs (Marie, Let’s Eat), in a couple of magazine lists […]

Rockaway Athletic Club – Columbia, SC

I had learned about Rockaway Athletic Club from Hamburger America, and reviewed George’s article before we left home.   One of things that I remembered was the difficulty he had in finding the place.   I followed the map to the address from the Burger GPS app, but all we saw where the GPS directed […]
