The Moment You’ve All Been Waiting For: Wendy’s “New Burger” Review
This review’s been a long time coming, foodies. Technically, the New Wendy’s Burger has been on this 15%-green-earth for nigh two months now. My coworker even sang its praises before I so much as sank an incisor in one. Because I’ll be straight with you, foodies. I resisted change. (It’s not the first time.) I resisted it the way a father resists viewing his adorable daughter as a woman as she vaults into puberty. Wendy’s grew … Read entire article »

Sonic: It Exists
Is there anything more deceptive than a television ad for Sonic? I’m one of those insufferable people who “doesn’t have a television”, but in my gym-going days, I had a one hour window where I could binge on all the daytime date shows MTV offered. The only thing that’s stuck with me from that era–besides the fact that it is totally acceptable greet an ugly blind date with “NEXT!”–is the white-background, solo voice ads of … Read entire article »

Taste Test: Burger King’s Bacon Cheddar Ranch Tendercrisp
I’m a compulsive cat-sitter, foodies, and not only does that mean breaking out in hives on the regs because I’m violently allergic to cats (their dander, but not their love), but also exploring the fast food options in my friends’ neighborhoods. Some of my friends, unbeknownst to them, are sitting on a veritable goldmine of fast food convenience. Did you know if you live off the Flushing Avenue stop of the J/M train, not only … Read entire article »

Taste Test: McDonald’s Rolo McFlurry
I’m not gonna front like I prepared this entry well, foodies — there will be no from-the-field photographs in this one. My decision to eat the Rolo McFlurry came after a night that left both my body and my cell phone drained — so drained that when I attempted to take a picture of the aforementioned McFlurry, my phone croaked a final Droooooooid before giving up the ghost, and I had to restrain myself from … Read entire article »

Taste Test: Dunkin Donuts Big N’ Toasty
Having already reviewed one Dunkin Donuts breakfast sandwich monstrosity, I figured I would be game for another. I’d heard murmurs of the Big N’ Toasty from friends encouraging me to review it, and eventually found myself inside a Dunkin Donuts, as if against my will, on the morning we were going to pick out our apartment. A mixture of fast food proximity and the instinct to stress eat overcame me, further exacerbated by my penchant … Read entire article »

Big Apple Barbeque Part 2: Sunday
Gather ’round, foodies, and I will tell you a story of woe. You see, it shouldn’t be me writing this post; originally, we’d planned for me to cover Saturday, followed by a post by Briana on Sunday. Alas, external factors thwarted us. I showed up at Briana’s doorstep at 1:45pm, expecting a companion to the second day of the BBQ — but it was not to be. For thirty minutes I sat, leaving her thirteen missed calls … Read entire article »

Big Apple Barbeque Part 1: Saturday
Yesterday I awoke like a kid on Christmas — too early and too excited for the day to begin. Was it because of some Hallmark-manufactured summer holiday of giving? No. Was it my birthday? No — that’s October 17th. (HINT HINT.) It was the inaugural day of The Big Apple BBQ in Madison Square Park, aka “The Two Days of the Year Heaven Descends to Earth.” Okay, okay — I realize barbecue is the antithesis of … Read entire article »

The Burger Garage
Hey foodies, Today I’m going to depart a little from the standard chain restaurant vibe of fast food and I’m instead going to talk about something a little more local. Sorry, Illinois readers. Sorry, South Carolina readers. Sorry Idaho/North Dakota, readers — OH WAIT, WE HAVEN’T HAD ANYONE FROM THOSE STATES VISIT OUR BLOG == WE ARE LOSING GOOGLE ANALYTICS BINGO. Ahem. Yesterday my boss sat down to go over the mail. “Y’all wanna order from Burger Garage?” … Read entire article »

Whataburger: What a Chicken Biscuit!
Dear foodies, While in Phoenix, I unfortunately did not have the opportunity to dine at In-n-Out. Talk about anti-climactic, amirite? However, w/r/t to the whole situation, I have this analogy to proffer up: I was a NYC tourist who is also an architect or someone else with a professional bent toward buildings really wanted to climb* the Empire State Building– Ahem. However, due to the ~hustle and bustle~ of the ~big apple~, I (the tourist) never made it to … Read entire article »
