Schaumburg, IL – To Pho Review

I used to work for a company that was owned by a reclusive jillionaire. My office was in Europe, but I maintained a household in the Chicago area that I would escape to on occasion.  On one of those occasions, I got a call from a couple of my superiors at the company, direct connections… Continue reading Schaumburg, IL – To Pho Review

Algonquin, IL – Algonquin Mexican Restaurant Review

Back in Chicagoland for the last time this year, had a craving for Mexican food since Mrs. Burgerdogboy has been on a cooking strike lately and she makes some fine Mexican platos. I was out in the NW burbs, some areas of which are increasingly populated with people of various Latin heritages, and mercados and… Continue reading Algonquin, IL – Algonquin Mexican Restaurant Review

White Castle Crispy Jalapeno Chicken Review

The last time I was in this particular White Castle was a day / night I made a major fundamental mistake – and I’m not talking about dining at White Castle, which is always a delight.  No, the last time through this outlet was the day Mrs. Burgerdogboy proposed we get married (after consuming 12… Continue reading White Castle Crispy Jalapeno Chicken Review

Popeyes Cracked Pepper Shrimp Review

Rolled through the old ‘hood today, zipped thru (Louisiana fast) Popeye’s to try their LTO of Cracked Pepper Butterfly Shrimp with “blackened” tartar sauce. Eight shrimp, fries and a biscuit for $4.99.  The shrimp, like Popeye’s chicken, were diminutive in size, but no matter, as it’s Mrs Burgerdogboy’s fast food of choice, especially the red… Continue reading Popeyes Cracked Pepper Shrimp Review
