Tooling around somewhere in East J@@@@, or maybe it was Bumf####, Kansas late one night, I pulled into the local burg in search of the local pizza. No such luck. But man, it’s DINNER TIME. Oh, who am I kidding, I don’t eat by the clock! Wait, it could have been Eastern Colorado,… Continue reading Nationwide – Pizza Hut’s “Big Italy”

Dallas, TX – iFratelli Pizza Review
Twenty three years ago, the brothers Cole started the first iFratelli’s Pizza in Irving, TX. Today, the DFW area boasts nine locations as well as one full serve Italian restaurant under the same banner.

PDX Food Carts – Short Video from Portland Monthly
Guest Columnist, Attorney William Duval
(Guest columnist William Duval, Portland business attorney, and frequent BurgerDogBoy burger companion, turns in this report): During my Match.com days – the ones after my divorce – I made a point to be filthy informed and up to date on the epicurean landscape of my fairly miserable city. I knew where the creamiest crepe could… Continue reading Guest Columnist, Attorney William Duval
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
Grazing at a “Bite of Oregon”

(And visit the Pepto Bismol booth to boot!). We would have… Continue reading Grazing at a “Bite of Oregon”
Portland, OR – Original Pancake House
The other day, one of my reviews on Yelp was called “mean and sarcastic” by a reader.

Portland, OR – Geraldi’s Italian Eating Place
When the sign on the door says “25 years in business” (and hopefully it isn’t left over from the last guy), well, that’s a pretty good sign. I’ve been in here before, had an Italian beef ‘hero’ (they called it “Chicago beef”) which was pretty good, as I recall. I didn’t ask them then, or… Continue reading Portland, OR – Geraldi’s Italian Eating Place
Our Annual 4th of July Cookout
A modest affair this year, just Mrs. BDB and me, but momentous nonetheless, because the 4th is one of the two days per year that Mrs. BurgerDogBoy has a burger. (The other day is completely random). So we set out to have a “quiet” 4th at home, and it was a wonderfully lazy day, lounging,… Continue reading Our Annual 4th of July Cookout
