Hidden gem (new food spot on the east side) alert…everything is so good here. We ordered two entrees and three sides off the menu because we couldn’t decide what we wanted most (everything sounds so so good) and the pricing is awesomely reasonable. I’m hoping the Chef (who came from Hillside?) will bottle up her housemade bacon jam and sell it to people like me who want their friends to think they’re clever in the kitchen. I’m pretty sure it’s bacon and onion with some other addictive magical ingredients mixed in. We learned that all menu items are freshly housemade each day. Pro tip: they’re currently open on Sundays only. Noon until 7:30pm! Entrees we ordered: 1. Buttermilk Fried Chicken Beignet Sliders in a Sweet & Spicy Sauce with green onions (my favorite!). These are delicious and would pair well with a half order of bacon jam fries (if you eat here, you have to try the bacon jam). 2. Beef Beignet Sliders with White Cheddar, Housemade Bacon Jam, Aioli, Arugula and Fried Egg (my husband’s favorite) delicious and filling 3. Sweet Potato Hash with jalepeño, red onion, white cheddar, over easy fried egg (this is my healthy-option favorite) Sides we ordered: 1. Bacchus Housemade Bacon Jam Fries with white cheddar, green onions (we got the half order) – let’s get real. These fries are an excuse to eat more bacon jam. I’m not complaining. Seriously order something with bacon jam on it. 2. Beignet (order of 3) – these are basically a low-sugar donut for adults. If you haven’t had one of these in the big easy itself, slide over to east 12th street. They’re freshly housemade and delicious – fried pastry with powdered sugar on top. 3. Sweet Potato Hash with jalepeños, onions, and cheese (this is my healthy-option favorite – comes with a fried egg over easy on top) Notable: Fun atmosphere with skee-ball and picnic tables inside and fun outside backyard with picnic tables. Football playing on tvs at the bar with nice beer selection and ***prosecco on tap***!! Thank you Full Circle Bar for adding this fun and delicious food stop.

Bricktown Brewery – Menu with Prices – 2035 Rock Rd, Wichita

Twisted comfort food? Yes, please! There were so many different items on the menu that sounded absolutely delicious. Fortunately for us, we consulted our awesome waiter, Ivan, who helped us narrow down our order. We ended up ordering the sea salt caramel fries, avocado fries, boom boom shrimp, watonga cheddar curds, buffalo wings, turkey bacon guacamole melt, meatloaf and chicken fried chicken. My favorite dish was definitely the sea salt caramel fries! I already love sweet potato fries, bacon and caramel separately but man when you serve it up all together – WOW! Cheese curds were also quite delicious, it had a nice thin batter and creamy melted cheese. The flavor of the boom boom shrimp was good, but I’m not a fan of popcorn shrimp. Would have loved it if they used bigger shrimp. By the time the entrees came around, most of the group was already full. I did manage to have a bite of everything and thought the meatloaf was my next favorite. The sauce was really good and that frizzled onion made it extra yummy! The chicken fried chicken was nice thin and crunchy, but a bit too salty for me. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who enjoys a twist on comfort foods.

Eastside Bagel – Menu with Prices – 8 Line St D, Charleston

Tried a variety of the bagel sandwiches, and boy, did they prove to be excellent bagels! They are definitely the most legit I have found in South Carolina. The sandwiches were loaded with delicious toppings and each deserves individual attention: The Screech Powers (fried bologna, scrambled egg, and American cheese on a plain bagel): Quite possibly the most perfect breakfast sandwich ever. Salty and well-fried, yum! The Hamover Street (ham, Provolone cheese, lettuce, house mayo or mustard on a plain bagel): Piles of sweet delicious ham. Hot lettuce is yucky and I had to remove it. The Ginger Grant (turkey, bacon, cream cheese, lettuce, and tomato on a sundried tomato bagel): surprisingly kind of bland. Bacon flavor overpowered the subtle turkey and cream cheese. Hot lettuce again was yucky. Will remember to ask for none next time. The Eastside Book Club (turkey, ham, bacon, Cheddar, Dijonnaise, lettuce, tomato, and red onion on an everything bagel): the everything bagel was too much, and overwhelmed all of the flavors but the bacon. I would ask for this one on plain, and no lettuce. The World Traveller (sausage, scrambled egg, bacon jam, Cheddar, and red onion on an everything bagel): a true taste sensation. This bagel has everything! Might be the best of all. Craveable for sure. The most delicious, authentic bagels you will find! This is definitely a place I will order from again. I only wish they delivered to Goose Creek LOL

DD’s Burgers Menu with Prices 440B W Fireweed Ln, Anchorage

Finally, the guy who made the best burgers in town out of a food truck has resurfaced at a new spot called DD’s Burgers! They are located on Fireweed Ln. between C St. and Arctic next to the Coffee Queen coffee hut. I already have made a couple of visits to pick up lunch for myself and my co-workers since finding out about this new place from fellow Yelper Julie D’s great review a few weeks ago. The owner himself recognized me as a regular when I approached the drive-thru window and was happy to see a familiar face. I was glad to see him again after missing out on his signature burgers for the last few months. The menu has stayed the same for the most part with the familiar selection of burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, and sides. An updated version of the menu is available on their Facebook page and the Burger of the Month is also back as of the 1st of February. My most recent visit prompted me to try the DD’s Favorite (diced bacon, caramelized onions, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and their highly addictive burger sauce) along with a side order of Tater Tots. The burger was perfect as always after months of painstaking uncertainty on whether he was ever going to go back in business again. The Tater Tots were not surprisingly, also THE best. No one can cook them better than this guy with that perfect crispy texture and the right amount of salt. Everything on the menu is worth trying out especially the Betty Bleu (bacon, cheddar, lettuce, sweet onions, mayo, and tomato topped with melted bleu cheese), the Farmer John (bacon, grilled onions, American cheese, crumbled tater tots, and a fried egg topped with their specialty sauce), and the Yukon (reindeer sausage and caramelized onions in cheddar with lettuce, tomato, and chipotle mayo).

South Philly Cheesesteaks – Menu with Prices – 1439 Main St, Sarasota

Walked in here and understand they just opened to the public this week. Its an open environment with a cool brick wall on one side, and wooden/steel wall on the other. Nice wooden tables. Our server was friendly and was efficient. We had a few questions and she answered all of them quickly. I didn’t want the grilled onions or hot peppers on my large 10″ cheesesteak and wanted lettuce, tomato, and onion instead. She said no problem, but charged me $1 extra. I also wanted onion rings instead of bagged potato chips or fries and told her I would pay extra, but she said that was not possible, so I went with the fries. We also ordered a Swiss mushroom burger and sweet potato fries, but when it came out, it was with onion rings–very odd (because she originally said onion rings as an upgrade was not possible!). We eventually got our sweet potato fries that we originally ordered and she had the nerve to charge us an extra $3 for the onion rings (that we never did order). It looks like when it comes to upgrades and changes, they are a bit confused, so who knows what’s allowed. The good news is that the cheesesteak was very good tasting, although for a large, it wasn’t that big. You would think a large would be at least a foot long for $11.50. The fries were fresh cut, but tasted a bit off and dry, and they were very dark in color, along with the onion rings. Perhaps they needed to change the oil in their fryer. The sweet potato fries were okay. They also serve beer here at very reasonable prices.

Choong Man Chicken – Menu with Prices – 2180 Pleasant Hill Rd, Duluth

I’ll have to say, I read the reviews and thankfully my experience was so much better than I expected! I came on my birthday (none of the workers actually knew that it was, lol) and our table was treated quite well! The four of us decided to try a couple different kinds of chicken, and settled on the Snow Onion Chicken, which has been all over social media, as well as the Garlic Soy Tikkudak wings. And to switch things up, we ordered a side of French Fries. While we were waiting, a server walked around offering around free samples of Curry Chicken, which worked out perfectly since it was our 3rd choice. And we instantly regretted not ordering this, because it was one of my favorite flavors overall! The Snow Onion Chicken is delicious! I love raw onions (I know, gross) but with the sauce and the crispy fried chicken, I found this to be quite hard to stop eating. We even started dipping our French fries in the sauce. The Garlic Soy Tikkudak was recommended by our server and it was ok. Thankfully, we ordered a order of the wings and not the whole chicken. They weren’t bad, but not as amazing as the Curry! Overall, I was very impressed and pleasantly surprised by how good the food was! I will definitely be back, although if I’m looking for a mediocre and cheap alternative closer to me, I may just stick to Hello Chicken. But did I mention it’s also next door to Ding Tea? Let me know if that changes your mind!!! Lol!

Town Tavern – Menu with Prices – 2119 Brewerton Rd, Syracuse

Upon recommendation from a few people, we had to try their shaved ribeye steak sandwich. We ordered out for dinner 3 steak sandwiches (one with mushroom only; one with provolone, mushroom, and onion; one with swiss, mushroom, and onion). We also ordered a large fry and an order of beer battered onion rings. The steak was a great piece of meat. It wasn’t grizzly, fatty, or greasy. It was very tasty but would’ve been even better if it was taken off the grill a little sooner. I think it was a tad over cooked. There wasn’t much of the toppings which was really disappointing especially because they charge extra for the onion and mushroom. And even though the order was rang into the receipt correctly, the kitchen mistakenly added cheese to the one that wasn’t supposed to have any. Luckily it wasn’t a lot of cheese. The roll was a soft white hoagy. I think it would’ve been better if they grilled it a bit. It tasted like old white bread. All of the sandwiches came with a bag of Lays potato chips and a pickle spear. The onion rings were big fat pieces of onion coated in beer batter and fried to perfection. They were crispy and delicious. And not greasy at all. The French fries were so crispy and delicious. I was actually surprised how crispy they were after getting them home. Normally fries to not travel well. All in all… I would try them again… maybe with some special requests.

Big Bon Bodega – Menu with Prices – 2011 Bull St, Savannah

BEST BAGELS! I seriously make it a goal to try bagel places everywhere I go. I was slightly disappointed in the lack of bagel places in Savannah until I tried Big Bon Bodega. First of all, the atmosphere is so cute. The wood fired oven is visible, so I’m sure you’d be able to see them being made if you’re early enough. There are so many windows, so the inside is practically all natural lighting, making it seem very open. There isn’t much seating inside, but there are plenty of picnic tables outside, both in the sun and under shade trees. I ordered the 912 bagel, which is bacon, fried egg, cheddar, and herb butter on your choice of bagel. I chose the everything bagel for it, but I’m sure any flavor is just as great! The bagel itself is is flavorful and the perfect texture. The outside is slightly crisp with a denser fluffy inside. The herb butter also added so much flavor and the bacon was crispy! It was a perfect proportion of bagel to fillings. Many of the girls I was with got The Donna bagel ( slice turkey, watercress, avocado, bacon, and roasted garlic asiago mayo) and raved about it. I also ordered their Yum Yum Twist, which is the bagel dough with sprinkles inside and sprinkled with spices like nutmeg, cinnamon, and sugar. They heated this up for me and it was amazing. It was only slightly sweet, but the dough alone is so delicious. This is not a bagel place with endless option of bagel and cream cheese flavors. It is simpler with a limited menu, but it works. The bagels are just so good that I don’t see a need for them to expand the menu much. I really think this may be the best bagel I’ve ever had. I wish I bought a dozen to take home with me. We even wanted to go the next morning, but it was Sunday and they are closed.

Catablu Grille – Menu with Prices – 6372 W Jefferson Blvd, Fort Wayne

Strip mall location with some outside seasonal seating. Saturday night reservation for 7:15. When seated the hostess uses a stamp on the cardboard table top that tells you the specials of the evening. Started with drinks,an avocado margarita and a pineapple flavored martini. The martini was superior to the margarita. Appetizer was Bang Bang shrimp. Spicy & good. Soup for the evening was Shrimp Bisque. Nice flavor but not enough shrimp to worry about. Wife had a wedge salad. Fresh & crisp with blue cheese crumbles & sweet bacon strips. We both choose the 14 oz. crusted rib eye steak with cheddar bacon butter and served with French Fries. Cooked medium rare with a great crust, boneless and very flavorful. I also had an order of the spicy onion rings. More like onion straws but with a little heat. Desert was next. Chocolate lava cake with a chocolate hazelnut tart. Both fine. Make no mistake, the star of the show was the Steak! At a price of $40 it should be. I need to also mention,service,prompt delivery of the food courses and atmosphere were excellent.

Great Harvest Bread Co., Anchorage, AK Menu with Prices 570 E Benson Blvd, Anchorage

Saw their cinnamon rolls on Yelp and wanted a breakfast type sandwich. Didn’t buy a cinnamon roll because they were out of icing wth? The roll is bigger than their bread loaves and I did get a sample. It’s very good even without icing because there is lots of moist cinnamon goodness inside the yummy yeasty bread. I had the ham, egg and cheddar on sourdough with a garlic herb bread and I highly recommend. I also sampled the bacon cheddar bread they brought out fresh with cheddar oozing out the sides and you get cheddar and bacon in every bite. It was busy and the line was long and it’s loud in there but there are two outside tables. Keto folks steer clear! ?

Chuck Lager America’s Tavern – Menu with Prices – 4500 Linden Hill Rd, Wilmington

Visited today for brunch and ordered the Bombolini breakfast burger – which is basically a cheeseburger with fluffy donut buns, fried egg, and sriracha aioli. It comes with fries smothered in syrup with bits of bacon. To get the simple things out of the way, first I’ll say the service was fast and friendly. The burger, however, I will not order again. My interpretation of a fried egg is cooked all the way through.. the yolk was not. I got the burger well done and it was very dry. I got the aioli on the side and it was ok, but I don’t like sriracha. Seems like whoever created this meal thought the aioli would carry the flavor of the burger. Lastly, my least favorite were the fries. It was weird, but kind of made sense in the beginning. I liked it at first but I’m not a fan of the overwhelming smell of maple syrup. About halfway through eating the fries I got an upset stomach. I think the fries were really innovative but it was definitely too sweet and too much sugar.. the meal wasn’t salty sweet like it should have been it was just…. sweet. The sugar on the buns taste like cotton candy, the meat was dry and had no flavor.. I think this meal needs to be revisited by the chef.. The preparation of the burger needs work, but I think maybe substitute the fries for sweet potato fries or something salty. This did not work for me and now my stomach hates me. It was just… odd. I thought the burger would be up my alley because I have a weird obsession with chocolate and sugar, but it’s not something I see anyone else enjoying, unless they love syrup smothered food. I would return and try the lunch/dinner menu and desserts though.

Burger Barn – Menu with Prices – 11787 International Dr Suite 118, Orlando

5 stars for delicious burgers, fries, Mac and cheese, and milkshakes! This place is great and I would definitely recommend it BUT I wouldn’t go for a specialty burger. Ok let me explain… so I’ve been to this place twice. First time, I ordered the hangover burger without bacon. I didn’t like it because it has a fried egg that’s cooked all the way through which doesn’t make sense to me. If you’re topping my burger with an egg, I want my yolk to run. Halfway through the burger we noticed there was bacon which sucks since we don’t eat bacon. We called and right away the offered us a replacement but we asked for a normal cheeseburger and the owner delivered it himself to our apartment which was amazing. You don’t see that kind of customer service often. The cheeseburger was AMAZING. The combination of cheese, onions, lettuce, etc was so nice and felt much simpler and tasted much better. Second time we dined in and ordered the southwest burger. This is when I learned to not order their specialty burgers. The guacamole was NOT FRESH. tasted like someone got the pre made guacamole mix. And yet again, the cheeseburger was AMAZING. this is just my opinion and many may disagree but I would really recommend just a good old fashioned cheeseburger. Also their fries and fry seasonings were amazing as well as their milkshakes and customer service. Please check this place out.

D’Amato’s Seafood II – Menu with Prices – 423 Whalley Ave #1, New Haven

I finally made it to D’Amatos Seafood. My sister and I went to visit our God daughter Zenae at Southern Univ and D’Amatos was literally 10 minutes away. When we arrived there was a line outside the door and you could smell the fresh seafood. My mouth was watering. When we were next to order, I made sure to look at the menu and they had ma ny different ways to order for 1 person up to 3 or more ppl. My sister Antoinette never wants to share and trust me when I say you will not be able to eat all the food they give you. I ordered combo # 3 which is the fried fillet with sea scallops, jumbo shrimp and hush puppies with onion rings. We decided to dine in which is connected to where you put in your order. We have the option of choosing another type of fish. I preferred the fried whiting fried soft along with the rest of my food. My sister ordered the combo #3 with fried whitting not fillet like mines and she ordered a.side of their clam strips. Zenae oredered the fried fish sandwich. Let me say that everything was fried perfect crispy and the fish was fresh. It was so much food I was like done looking at it all. The yush puppies were banging but the onion rings were least favorite and I love onion rings. I will do the fries next they were banging. I had so much food to carry home but for me & my sis the food is only good when your eating it there. Oh I almost forgot to inform you that they also have outside area as well for dinning. I will Absolutely return to D’Amatos but I will make sure I have a companion to share with me. The food is awesome. When your in the New Haven area please stop into D’Amatos for fresh , hot and delicious seafood. To all of my yelpers until my next foodie adventure. Please #EAT#LOVEOFFOOD!! #FOODIE4LIFE.
