Shake Shack

September 30, 2014

Having never been to a Shake Shack, yes, I was that guy that visited a restaurant within a few hours of opening. It’s a poor move for those expecting to find a restaurant in their groove, but this is fast food we’re talking about. Besides, I’ve been reading about Shake Shack for as long as […]

The Same But Different [Burgers & Chicken]

September 16, 2014

Each month I Evernote-file dozens of recipes and ideas to try, I purchase a handful of cookbooks a year, yet half my cooking is incited by my love of comforting fatty foods, grilled things, and fried stuff, especially chicken parts. If I see a fried chicken recipe with a minor twist, I must add it to my repertoire. […]

The Atlanta Burger and Fry Index

August 12, 2014

For lunch today I had the Canoe burger, which on a value/taste matrix, may be the best burger and fry in town. It’s what I call a hotel burger. It’s an over-sized hockey puck of in-house ground beef, properly cooked to temp, served with all the fixings – charred onion, pickles, tomato, lettuce, and little […]

Cow Cow Burgers

May 31, 2011

A few weeks I was invited to a dinner at the home of Emile DeFelice, owner of Caw Caw Creek Farm, which I seem to talk about all the time. Emile’s product (pork) is amazing, but he’s also one of the few people in Columbia that I can call a friend. Being that I’ve worked […]

Grinding Meat. Ad Hoc Chicken. And More!

March 26, 2010

Now that I have a nice camera, I have no shortage of photos. I take pictures of every bowl of cereal I make, and I weird people out at restaurants. Having a large camera, people often ask if I’m in a food related industry. I just look at them oddly and say, “no, I’m in […]

Quick Bite: The Weekend

February 22, 2010

This past Thursday through Sunday I had a jammed full schedule, including an insane amount of guilty pleasure eating. Luckily my weekend included a total of twenty miles of running; my fancy GPS watch said I burned 3,070 calories. Somehow I still think my appetite managed to beat out my metabolism. Thursday night a group […]

Ormsby’s

December 23, 2009

Last week Ormsby’s opened in the Westside Provisions District, on the same side of the development as Abattoir. Yeah, that’s right, yet another new restaurant on my side of town. Though of all the new restaurants, Ormsby’s may be the first foray in the casual dining/drinks/hangout genre (is that a genre?). Ormsby’s has a decent […]

Purple Teeth and a Full Belly

November 12, 2009

Yep, I’m once again out of town, but this time I’m having some fun in Sonoma, hanging at the headquarters of Dirty South Wine (aka Hardy, the Murphy Goode Social Media Correspondent). While I may not be as exciting as last week’s house guests, so far we are throwing down in style. As such, my […]
