Waffling at Bru’s Wiffle
Chicken and wiffles? While “the bun” has undergone many iterations (pretzel, brioche, etc…) and sandwich bread is known for its varieties, there is one bread-like breakfast conduit that still hasn’t...

Food for the Soul at Chef Marilyn’s

Holy Corn Muffins at Dulan’s Soul Food Kitchen

Going Tribal at Chagga Grill
I like my chicken fried. After reaching the summit of Mount Kilimanjaro and coming back down to the town of Moshi, I learned a good amount about our guides. One of these things was that they came from...

Heading South to Flossie’s
Fried Flossie. A long, long time ago, in a valley far, far away, a coworker of mine recommended I check out Flossie’s Southern Cuisine in Torrance. I listened, because the man spent his college years...

Upscale Atlanta at Buckhead Diner
So much better than Buckeye diner. Driving around Buckhead, Atlanta aimlessly attempting to find dinner on a Sunday night, we happened upon Buckhead Diner. Looking it was pulled straight off of Route...

Good to the Marrow at Meat & Potatoes
So much bone, so little time. Essentially the day I arrived in Pittsburgh, a buddy of mine told me I had to get to Meat & Potatoes in downtown. With an unvegan name like that, I didn’t exactly need...

Waking Up to Hash House a Go Go
A pile of epicness. I usually prefer not to wake up early in Vegas, but when I do it is either to hit the pool or to find some awesome food. Fortunately we found the latter with Hash House a Go Go....

A Bacchanal Buffet Without Borders
Did someone say mini burgers? In my mind, no trip to Sin City is worth it without committing the sin of gluttony. There are many outlets for said gluttony, but none better than one of the city’s...

A Luther Sandie at GBD
Unfortunately the picture is not gold, brown or delicious. GBD in Washington DC’s Dupont Circle quite literally stands for Golden Brown Delicious. This, of course, is quite a claim, yet considering the...

A Chicken Kicker at Mirabella’s
Kicked up a notch. Saugerties is one of the bigger small towns of Upstate New York and is also one of the weirdest-named. Nonetheless, it is home to a bar and grill called Mirabella’s that I found...

KK’s at Lo-Lo’s Chicken and Waffles
Exactly as it should be. Chicken and Waffles isn’t just for Roscoe’s. In fact, in the Phoenix area it’s pretty much synonymous with Lo-Lo’s. Lo-Lo’s House of Chicken and Waffles, that is. For a place...

A Platter of Joy at Gus’s Bar-B-Q
Classic. South Pasadena is a unique place. As a wholly independent city, it’s often thought of as a more hoity toity part of the area. Yet, it retains a charm that is distinctly “main street.” The part...
