Ferraro’s and the Great 28

This weekend some friends wanted to get together, and one had a tip that Ferraro’s down in the Pinch has some great traditional pizza. Easy enough argument, and off the eight of us went to check it out. First thing, easy to get to, easy to park free, which isn’t always the case downtown, so [...]

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 [...]

ACRE is the Place to Be

At long last, Wally Joe’s latest restaurant has landed in an inviting space in East Memphis near Theatre Memphis and Audubon Park. To say that ACRE has been long-awaited would be a mild understatement. People that I know have been talking about it for a long time, wondering, speculating, and anticipating. It was beginning to [...]

I’m a Soul (Fish) Man!

I’m a Soul Man What’s one of the best things about living in the south? One of my favorite is how we use adjectives that don’t wouldn’t normally go with food to describe types of food. In this corner, soul food. I may not have super awesome dance moves, and I may look more like [...]

Party Like It’s (Cafe) 1912

87 Years Early? Or 82 Years Late? Who doesn’t like Prince (or the symbol or whatever he’s going by these days)? That’s reason enough. Party at 1912 Recently part of my usual crew threw around some text messages and a few phone calls to set up a little dinner out. With reservations made by someone [...]

About Darn Thyme (Bistro)!

I don’t know about you, but the word “thyme” invokes this song and visualization every time I see it or think about it. What an awesome movie. About Thyme I’ve been meaning to get out to Thyme Bistro for a while now, so I was excited when K and I made plans to try it [...]

Colorado 2010 – Here We Are, D Bar

On my recent trip to the Mile High City (Denver), a lot of you all recommended that I take a trip to the D Bar in the Washington Park section of Denver. Done. K and I met one of her good friends and husband and tasted it up. First of all, the place is tiny, [...]

Doing Our Part

K and I are doing our part to help the Friends of Bad Dog crew by getting take out from one of the participating restaurants in the Dog Day fundraiser. We ordered up the awesome Massaman curry, egg rolls, and the Tom Ka soup from Bangkok Alley, which is some of the best Thai food [...]

Who’s the Boss(es)

Yesterday (TR note – technically, over a week ago, since I never finished this post on time), I did what I normally do on Saturdays. I went to art class, lunch (more on those in a seperate post), and then, like many, I settled in for a couple (ok, a half-dozen) hours of good old [...]
