This Burger Will Roxie Your Soxies Right Off

One of the interesting things about life today is the nearly instant access to all kinds of information. Basically, I only really “rack my brain” when my crew is playing team trivia, which is a no cell phone allowed activity, or at work, when someone asks me something that I would know that would not [...]

A Quick Bite – A Soul Man

Yesterday, during a break from setting up the MIFA Feed the Soul event, I went down the street for the only appropriate meal for the day. Ernestine and Hazel’s soul burger is as good as advertised. This was my first time to eat one in the light of day, and I do believe it won’t [...]

Getting All Burly

Quick note – Before publishing this, I found out that Burly’s is temporarily closed due to a fire in the kitchen. I’ll let you know when I find out they are open, as that would be a perfect time to go support them! – End note. Earlier in the summer, everyone was talking up the [...]

How I Roll, the Slider Inn Edition

Recently I went to the opening night party at the Slider Inn on Peabody at the intersection of Cooper. For one magical Friday night, the stars were aligned and there was free food coming out of the oven and free drinks flowing from the taps. Needless to say, people kept getting calls and texts and [...]

Here Comes Sunshine and the Sunshine Burger

A couple of weeks ago, you might remember that I was mired in a crisis of faith. I was struggling with burger monogamy (you know what I mean), as the Sunshine Burger at Huey’s had caught my eye after so many years of letting the West Coast Burger wear my letter jacket. So, I went [...]

Getting Sterling at Erling Jensen

One of the perks of writing this blog is that my friends send me information about and recommendations for places to go eat. This happened a couple of weeks ago when the Counselor sent me an article on restaurants getting behind the small plate craze from Memphis Magazine (check it out for info on Bar [...]

Brushmark Your Shoulders Off

I’ll admit it. I went to the same place for lunch twice in one week. If you’re feeling like a pimp… …go and brush(mark) your shoulders off. Jay-Z’s is an incredible story of a guy that made it to the top as an incredible artist and entrepreneur. Here’s his new book, in case you’re interested. [...]

The Burger Bar – a Zinnie’s Lunch Primer

Z-Bombs Away and the new Crowd Quality Index A few days back, K got the chance to come down to Midtown to go out to lunch with me. Since this is a pretty rare occasion, we went for something that we don’t get too often. The elusive Zinnie’s lunch. I only call it elusive because [...]

Oh (Interim) Burger, Where Art Thou?

Music for the journey.  Music for the trip. Music for the Odyssey!!! Where art thou? If you are friends of this little blog on Facebook, you would know that I spent last night sneaking around town to get an exclusive on the renovations at Muddy’s Bake Shop.  I had to go all Jason Bourne, but [...]

The Right Side of the (RP) Tracks

CHiPs and cheese I went over by U of M/Highland Strip to RP Tracks the other day for dinner.  I wanted a place that offered three things: tvs to watch the basketball game; a bar atmosphere that allowed for eating only, eating and drinking, or drinking only; and good vegetarian dishes.  RP Tracks is a [...]
