(From out travel archives) Prejeans…………..Before Levi’s? I’d seen the restaurant Prejeans many times when driving up I-49 between Lafayette and Shreveport. I had never had an occasion to stop, although I had heard fairly good things about it. Local publicity calls it “award winning” and the “best Cajun cuisine in the South.” Those are pretty… Continue reading Lafayette, LA – Prejean’s (Review)

Vancouver, WA – Cinetopia 23 (Food review)
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)
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 (Bucktown) R&O Seafood (Review)
(From the travel archives of Burgerdogboy) Heading out to Bucktown for seafood is a local tradition in the Crescent City; Bucktown is roughly at the end of Canal Street, on Lake Pontchartrain, it used to be the hub of the fishing fleet, and a town where a young “buck” could sew his wild oats, get… Continue reading New Orleans, LA (Bucktown) R&O Seafood (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)
Houma, LA – Boudreaux & Thibodeaux’s Cajun Diner Review
(From our travel archives) I am embarrassed to say I don’t know the origin of these Cajun nicknames. Actually, they are pretty common surnames in Acadiana, but over the years, they have taken on a comical quality when used as given names, akin to “Sven and Ole” in the Upper Midwest, “Pat & Mike” in… Continue reading Houma, LA – Boudreaux & Thibodeaux’s Cajun Diner Review
New Orleans, LA – The Bon Ton
(From our travels) Another one of those venerable “institutions for locals,” the Bon Ton Café has been dishing up Creole/Cajun specialties in the CBD since 1953. Located in an historic building from the 1840s, the Bon Ton is, in fact, New Orleans oldest Cajun restaurant. The Pierce family has presided over the estab since the… Continue reading New Orleans, LA – The Bon Ton
