Er, yeah. Imagine the comic book guy on the Simpsons saying “worst…….cheeseburger…….ever,” and you’ll know how my experience went, in the middle of the night, in the middle of nowhere, USA. It was me and a guy that scared the hell out of me, the only customers, the typical greasy diner waitress lady who looked… Continue reading Eden, ID – Garden of Eden Truck Stop

Home Cookin’ – Wal Mart Marketside Pizza
Wandering around Wal Mart in the middle of the night, I was looking at their fresh ‘take and bake’ pizza lines, and noting the relative value of the size/weight for the price, compared with other fresh or frozen pizzas. The Wal-Mart Marketside Brand 12” Ultimate Meat Pizza, goes for $5.00, and tops the scale at… Continue reading Home Cookin’ – Wal Mart Marketside Pizza

Portland, OR – Julie’s Vietnamese (Food Cart)
In the middle of the 5th/Oak/Stark pod, is a nondescript trailer which I wouldn’t have known the name of, save for the sign board on the sidewalk. For me, this place would be an odd choice for my noontime repast, but Mrs. BDB and I had out of town guests, and we were trying desperately… Continue reading Portland, OR – Julie’s Vietnamese (Food Cart)
Beaverton, OR – Canyon Grill
“Voted Best Burgers in Town!” the sign outside says. Doesn’t say by whom, or what town. I’ve driven by this place a million times, on Canyon Rd, or “Car Dealer Row”, or more appropriately these days, “Empty Car Dealer Buildings Row”, as quite a few are in the wind these days. I first spotted the… Continue reading Beaverton, OR – Canyon Grill

Portland, OR – A Saturday Satiated/Heavenly Cheese
Saturday was a “way too much” food day for the Burgerdogboy family, due to relatives being in town. I wasn’t able to document it all, a general ‘walking food coma’ overtook me at some point. Problem with eating so much yesterday, is I have to still deal with what’s on the plate for us today! … Continue reading Portland, OR – A Saturday Satiated/Heavenly Cheese
Portland, OR – Deschutes Brew Fest / Food Cart Bonanza
Once a year, the little brewer from Bend who could, closes off the street in front of their Pearl area brewpub, and serves up samples of their beers, along side samples of a dozen or so Portland food carts. I have a little bit of an opinion about microbrews….. being a spoiled American occasional beer… Continue reading Portland, OR – Deschutes Brew Fest / Food Cart Bonanza
Portland, OR – Original Pancake House
The other day, one of my reviews on Yelp was called “mean and sarcastic” by a reader. I am known to be a sarcastic person by nature, but I tend to soft soap a lot of these posts, and really look for the good in each place I visit, and talk about it, regardless of… Continue reading Portland, OR – Original Pancake House
Portland, OR – Tasty n Sons
Portland is big on brunch, and Tasty n Sons aims to satisfy those urges, offering a “brunch only” menu all the time (open 9-3), which is both interesting AND tasty! Brought to us by the fine folks who gave us Toro Bravo, Tasty’s menu is so fascinating to me, I think I could eat there… Continue reading Portland, OR – Tasty n Sons
