Movie theater food? Blech, usually, and I have opined on that topic many times. But at the ultra new, spiffy, Cinetopia (now with 3 area locations) in Vancouver, WA, food rules, and you can order and have it delivered to your chair in a few of the multiplex screens. As well as cocktails! Mrs. Burgerdogboy… Continue reading Vancouver, WA – Cinetopia 23 (Food review)

Superior, WI – Amnicon Bar (Review)
Kawikamedia and the Minnesota Burger Posse have embarked on a mission of checking out “dive” bars in the area. This week, it was the Amnicon Bar s on the Corner of Tri Lake Road and County A out by Pattison Park. About 10 miles South of Superior, Wisconsin, on Amnicon Lake. There are a… Continue reading Superior, WI – Amnicon Bar (Review)
Kenner, LA – Jukebox Cajun Diner (Review)
(From the archives) Ever since the demise of the Humming Bird diner, I continually search for a 24/7 diner in N’awlins I can call “home,” at 3AM. There really doesn’t seem to be an apt replacement, so I tend to “spread the wealth” around, and visit several different places, depending on 1) my location at… Continue reading Kenner, LA – Jukebox Cajun Diner (Review)
Portland, OR – Three Square Grill (Review)
In our hood, Three Square Grill has been dishing up their take on American favorites, sourcing locally whenever possible, for over ten years. While we’ve always intended to go there, we had never made it, until last nite, and we’ve been missing out. Mrs. Burgerdogboy had called from her daily errands and suggested a date… Continue reading Portland, OR – Three Square Grill (Review)
Visit Duluth, Everything’s Fine! @Visitduluth
Burgerdogboy’s hometown had a few weather difficulties last week, but that doesn’t mean you shouldn’t visit! It’s beautiful, it’s the “air conditioned city,” lots of great restaurants like the Pickwick and Grandma’s. Great beaches, rivers, and lakes to recreate on. Get on up to Duluth!
Duluth, MN – A & Dubs (Review)
If you’re as old as dirt, as I am, you’ll remember Duluth prior to the major fast food franchises coming in. We had a select number of local burger houses, most noticeably, The London Inn, at 17th Avenue East and London Road, a beloved high school hangout and purveyor of most excellent onion rings, and… Continue reading Duluth, MN – A & Dubs (Review)
New Orleans, LA – La Peniche (Review)
(From our travel archives) Snuggled betwixt the Quarter and the Marigny at the intersection of Dauphine and Touro, if one wants to “float their boat” for all night dining, La Peniche (French for “large barge”) can satisfy most of what ails ya. Open 24/7, (other than their own “weekend,” which lasts from Tuesday afternoon til… Continue reading New Orleans, LA – La Peniche (Review)
Portland, OR – Bird Dog Review
The “Bird Dog” name doesn’t come from any of the conventional or urban slang definitions of that phrase, but rather, one would imagine, as an homage to the cafe’s signature dish moniker, a hot dog prepared in the way occasionally people are used to hearing a different cut of meat prepared in some parts of… Continue reading Portland, OR – Bird Dog Review
El Paso, TX – Chico’s Tacos Review
(From our archives) I think my favorite three-word phrase of endorsement for restaurant is not “Credit Cards Accepted,” but rather “Open since 19XX,” with the “XX” has to be (my criteria) at least thirty years ago – forty or fifty is even better. Chico’s Tacos in El Paso (4 locations) is one of those places,… Continue reading El Paso, TX – Chico’s Tacos Review
Meat Purveyor – Harris Ranch of California
It’s not unusual to find finer California restaurants featuring beef from Harris Ranch. You’ll find a lot of their product at great burger restaurants, as well. Since the 30’s, the family has been one of California’s largest farmers/ranchers, from their base in Fresno, CA. Today, they have an empire like operation, spanning cattle, feed lots,… Continue reading Meat Purveyor – Harris Ranch of California
