I was heading to a meeting with some folks in John’s Creek and noticed City Barbecue about three weeks before I had the chance to stop in. It’s about twenty minutes from the office, so on a quiet Friday, I headed that way for lunch. Initially, I was surprised that I hadn’t heard about a […]
Camping with some friends near Cherokee, NC, we were discussing lunch, at breakfast. (Come on – you know you’ve done it, too. I heard a great quote about this point, this week, “Why don’t we go get lunch and talk about dinner?”). Looking for options, the one couple among us with any bars of phone […]
As we were getting closer to home, it was obvious we were going to be in Kansas City for lunch. That meant only one choice for the “what do you want for lunch?” question – barbecue. But there were way too many choices for where to have it. Looking at the options available, and our […]
After driving across Washington state the day before, we rolled into northern Idaho, around lunch time. One of my friends declares that Couer d’Alene is the prettiest places in this country. So we headed toward down town and found that he was right. It was an early autumn day and the sun was shining on […]
On our mighty, ridiculously-speedy, cross-country drive, our journey was marked in miles, states and burger joints. We didn’t have much time for site seeing, but I did want to hit a few highlights – and the Mormon Temple in Salt Lake City was one of those. Coincidentally, there were a couple of burger joints in […]
While we were working our way toward Kansas, we rolled into Tulsa around lunch time and I consulted the list. One of the spots on there, open for more than 60 years, is Hank’s Hamburgers. The reference I had, and all the pictures inside, proclaim it as Waylon Jennings’ favorite burger joint. There were several […]
Continuing westward from Memphis, we got into North Little Rock, a little early for dinner, but definitely at a good time for a solid snack. We were led to K Hall and Sons Produce, a small family-owned grocery store, by the Garden n Gun “Fried Chicken Bucket List”, so I knew why I was there. […]
We left Atlanta early on Wednesday morning, starting our great west-bound adventure. Courtesy of an hour time change, we cruised into Memphis for a late lunch, at 12:30 Central. There are many places known for barbecue in Memphis, but the field narrows, considerably, when it comes to the discussion of sandwiches. One of the consensus […]
As I didn’t get around to posting this timely and I can’t remember all the details of the meal, I’m now posting this restaurant as a photo blog.
Several months back, maybe a year or more, I read an article about the opening of the Alden, in Chamblee, in Atlanta magazine. From that point, I’ve had it on the short list of places to try. This Tuesday, as I was heading to meet some friends in Buckhead, I was heading down Peachtree and […]
