The Spence – Atlanta, GA
As we headed downtown for another wedding shopping venture (IKEA, this time), I saw that we’d be near Richard Blais’ latest enterprise, the Spence. I’ve reviewed a couple of his other places (Flip and HD1) and we decided to give this one a try. The Spence is part of the Concentrics Group, most of which […]
PURE Taqueria – Duluth, GA
Over the last couple of years, the city of Duluth has gone through a resurgence. On the corner near where the train depot used to stand is what appears to be a refurbished gas station – roll up bay doors and all. Now most all of this was built in the last two years, but […]
Cafe Restaurante Dominicano – Norcross, GA
So another day rolls around and I’m the only member of my lunch crowd that’s “in the office”. Not in the mood for the any of the regular spots, I open up my “lists” to see what is near the office. Every restaurant on the list appears to be Asian and I’m just not in […]
Holy Taco – Atlanta, GA
Holy Taco has been on the list of places that I wanted to try for several months, but we never seemed to be in that neighborhood (East Atlanta Village) AND to be in the mood for tacos at the same time. We arrived around 2:00 on a Sunday and, aside from the party of eight […]
The Sound Table – Atlanta, GA
For the last several months, I kept hearing about the Sound Table, off Edgewood. One thing that I really hate is waiting forever for a table, so we generally pick a place where we can make a reservation, generally via Open Table. The Sound Table has never shown up for me on Open Table, therefore […]
Mesa – Las Vegas, NV
As we were planning out the week’s food events, we had originally planned to dine at Bartolotta Ristorante Di Mare. But the timing didn’t work out with other things, so instead we made a reservation at Bobby Flay’s Mesa, at Ceasar’s Palace. We arrived for an early dinner (5:45) and the place was already beginning to […]
Le Burger Brasserie – Las Vegas, NV
Looking for a quick bite before a meeting and seeing the variety of burger options available at Le Burger Brasserie , I thought it might be a good quick, lunch choice. Located in the Paris resort in Vegas (technically, it is in the walkway between the Paris and Bally’s resorts), it is, for all intents […]
CUT by Wolfgang Puck – Las Vegas, NV
Having a chance to be in Vegas for a couple of days for a conference, this of course led to food opportunities. I was shocked (SHOCKED, I tell you) when I went to my burger reference points and I had no places listed to try. The Burger Bar at the Wynn was mentioned in a […]
The Permian Basin Hamburger Company – Odessa, TX
For years, as I’ve been traveling back and forth to Odessa for business, I’ve seen the Permian Basin Hamburger Company. I’ve even tried to eat there on a couple of occasions. But until today, the stars had not so aligned themselves as to allow it. The menu, on the outside wall, appeared straight-forward,so I went […]
Freddy’s Frozen Custard & Steakburgers – Wichita, KS
While having a world of fun at “the bluegrass” (Walnut Valley Festival), we were talking with some friends about our plans for returning home and they asked if I had burger-stop planned before flying from Wichita. I told them we had tried Jack’s North High, Nuway and Bionic Burger on a previous trip. Altitude Boy […]
