Cuisine. Culture. Commentary.
I was a big fan of The Spotted Pig so I walked into The Breslin expecting a good meal. A good meal is just what I got. Don’t you just hate when things turn out just as you’d hoped? I liked the vibe from the moment I walked inside. Even though it’s located in the…

It is nearly impossible for me to stay away from Athens for an entire football season, so I planned a trip to GA for Homecoming. I was also way past due for a visit with my Atl buddies so I headed down on Thursday night for a little quality time with Patricia and Miesh. Since…
Read MoreAs the last hoorah of my b-day celebration, I took yesterday off to celebrate it like the holiday it is. It was a perfect day: I caught up on my DVR’d shows, read/people-watched in the park, and enjoyed a burger. Burger spot brgr opened their 2nd outpost this weekend, and it is conveniently located around…
Read MoreHow fast can I eat a burger? My speed will astonish and amaze you. If I am hungry and the burger is good, I am a BEAST. I’m pretty sure I inhaled my Burger Joint masterpiece in less than 2 minutes. Walk into one of the swankiest hotels in New York and the last thing you’d expect…
