Luigis Frozen Pizza Review

I wrote about this brand previously, which may or may not have been born out of a Wisconsin tavern. Last time I was intending to get an “all meat” but somehow got home with a supreme, a type I would never buy. If you’re not bothering to click over to the other review, here’s the… Continue reading Luigis Frozen Pizza Review

Stoneridge Meats

In nearly the geographic center of Wisconsin, a small town named Wautoma, Stoneridge Market is a full service grocery store that has a wholesale meat manufacturing and distributing division, and if that weren’t enough, they own a winter inner tubing park nearby. Their in-house meat counter features dozens of flavors of bratwurst, as well as… Continue reading Stoneridge Meats

Portland, OR – Pizza at Uncle John’s Market

Mrs. Burgerdogboy came back from an outing with her pals at ScarletGirl.com, with a most unusual rave – no, not the latest in intimate playthings for couples, but rather a tip on a pizza her husband must try! So Sunday nite she urged us out the door as the punctuation for a week we have… Continue reading Portland, OR – Pizza at Uncle John’s Market

Beaverton, OR – Five Guys Review

It’s funny that the second time I’d end up at Five Guys that it would be the same location that I first visited, three or four years ago. It’s when Five Guys was still rather novel, and especially to Portland, as it was the first location – in the SW burb of Beaverton. I… Continue reading Beaverton, OR – Five Guys Review

Perfect Pasta Meat Ravioli Review

Any time I pick up a product to purchase and the first two words on the ingredient list are not “mechanically separated,” I figure I’m way ahead of the game. It was the ingredient list that attracted me to the meat ravioli product of Perfect Pasta, a suburban Chicago manufacturer. Note the ingredients: Durum wheat… Continue reading Perfect Pasta Meat Ravioli Review

Pastorelli Pizza Sauce Review

Tried out a new pre-made pizza sauce last night, from Chicago pizza supplies and food supplier, Pastorelli, who have been around for a million years or so. In addition to pizza sauce, they have a number of consumer products including tomato derivatives, olive oils, and pre-made crusts, which I tried previously. The past few years,… Continue reading Pastorelli Pizza Sauce Review

Worlds Oldest Sausage Restaurant – Nuremburg

Seventy years ago this month, the only Americans around Nuremberg were 10,000 feet over it, dropping bombs to break the industrial backbone of the Third Reich; 90% of the city was destroyed and 100,000 people killed. You can’t tell. The city has been rebuilt to look exactly as it did before the bombing. From photographs,… Continue reading Worlds Oldest Sausage Restaurant – Nuremburg

Reggios Pizza Review

I’m reluctant to try almost any freezer pizza that says it can be microwaved. Just never works out, in my opinion. But Reggio’s is one of my favorite frozen brands, and the individual sized were on an endcap and on sale, so I thought I’d give one a whirl. I’ve tried the size before,… Continue reading Reggios Pizza Review

Trader Joes Chocolate Croissants

I haven’t been in a Trader Joe’s for awhile. Not sure why, wasn’t an intentional thing unless you count the frustration of parking at many of them. No, just circumstance. Kinda odd actually, since I think they have some of the best frozen pizzas (imported from Italy and France) available, and something I… Continue reading Trader Joes Chocolate Croissants

Chicago, IL – Superdawg Drive In Review

For over sixty years, Superdawg has been serving up their special menu of hot dogs, burgers, fries and shakes in Northwest Chicago. It’s still run by the family of the founder, and I always appreciate that type of business and try to patronize them more often than not. In virtually any list of the top… Continue reading Chicago, IL – Superdawg Drive In Review
