Doe’s Eat Place – Greenville, MS
Walking in the screened front door of Doe’s Eat Place, we immediately assumed we had made a mistake – we were standing in the kitchen, right next to the grill. We asked and they waved us through to the second kitchen – where the salads, toast and fries were made – and a lady asked […]
Dyer’s Burgers – Memphis, TN
Dyer’s Burgers has been on my list since the beginning of the predecessor to this blog – arising out of my fascination with the first edition of George Motz’s Hamburger America (I’ve just ordered the third version, which was published earlier this year and will be in the mailbox when we get back from this […]

As we approached the white sign for Craig’s Bar-B-Q, it looked like my kind of place. Middle […]
