Casting a little flavor (and a few aspersions) on the world of food, drink, and life

Geez… More Pizza?!

Yes, always, more pizza! There are so many pizzerias in Buenos Aires that it would be near impossible for one person to visit them all. Okay, maybe not quite, but the city records somewhere north of 1200 dedicated pizzerias licensed, serving up more than 14 million pizzas a year to its 3 million inhabitants. I’m… Read More Geez… More Pizza?!

2022 Menu #17

We’re back! The month-long break and travel through a portion of the U.S., and in particular a new portion of it for me (I added three states to my “been to” list) should help with a bit of mental recharging. We’ll have to see how much influence southern U.S. cuisine might have in the next… Read More 2022 Menu #17

Rollin’ down Buford Highway holdin’ fifteen grand…

I’m back home, and here’s the wrap-up from the last stretch of the trip! Apologies, this is super-long, and photo intensive, but I just want to get it all in on one post. Although I could have simply driven straight through from Birmingham to Atlanta, it being only a little over a two-hour drive, I… Read More Rollin’ down Buford Highway holdin’ fifteen grand…

I’ve Been Everywhere Man…

A several days visit with our folks, long overdue for the two of us coming in from overseas, but there was this little viral thing. It was some much-needed family time, even after the roadtrip. First stop as we headed north out of Nashville, with Parlor Doughnuts fueling our systems (well, two of us anyway),… Read More I’ve Been Everywhere Man…

Nashville Without You

On to Music City. Sorry you weren’t here with us, but we’re chugging along. First stop, one of the Birmingham branches of Big Bad Breakfast, 1926 29th Avenue S, Homewood, since we’d been thwarted with our plan to visit the original when passing through Oxford, MS. Chicken and waffles, a breakfast scramble of sorts, or, my… Read More Nashville Without You

Down in Alabama, Mississippi…

Heading south out of Memphis last Saturday morning, our goal was a late breakfast or brunch at the original of the now multi-location chain of Big Bad Breakfast. We headed for Oxford, Mississippi, where, unfortunately, we discovered that it was graduation weekend at U-Miss, and on arrival at the restaurant, found there was a minimum of… Read More Down in Alabama, Mississippi…

Walking in Memphis

Next stop… Memphis. Picture intenstive! We got into Memphis late, got checked into our hotel. It was kind of chilly and looked like rain, so we decided to just grab something light (we had had two barbecue lunches already) across the street at Flight, 39 S. Main Street. We all just ordered small salads – two… Read More Walking in Memphis

Meet me in St. Louis, Louis

The Great 2022 Barbecue Road Trip has begun. First stop after leaving Chicago… St. Louis, where we spent a couple of days checking out both barbecue and not, in the city, and then headed south to our next destination, Memphis. A quick round-up. Basically we headed south on Rt. 55. And here and there we… Read More Meet me in St. Louis, Louis
