Had their sliders, pretty damn good, some of the best I’ve had, honestly. Their fries are pretty good too. I’ve only been there a handful of times, but now that I live like 2 seconds away, I have a feeling I’ll be there a lot. If you notice the picture doesn’t suck like most of [...]

On occasion I get bored and go through the “Memphis” blogrolls on a variety of local sites like thememphisblog, theogeo, scribblescrawl, etc.
Sooner or later I find myself on Steve’s Nude Memphis Blog. I read over it, generally feel a little dumber for my trouble, and move on, but hey, there’s nothing wrong with someone having [...]

I posted a quick blurb about this place a month or so ago, but I ordered again tonight and felt I should do a more in depth review.
I gotta say, this is easily the best pizza in Memphis. Tonight I ordered a Supreme and got it delivered. Supreme consists of pepperoni, mushrooms, onions, peppers, black [...]

Back from Chicago, but their weather seems to have followed me, so I’ve more or less just been sitting at home hiding from the cold.
I was reading the most recent issue of Downtowner and saw an ad for Second Street Shoppers that included a website. Pretty basic, but at least they have hours of operation [...]

Everyone’s doing the family/holiday thing, including me, so there’s not a whole lot to post about. Kooky Canuck is doing $2 32oz bud lights all day tomorrow, Wednesday 12/23, if you’re in the mood for cheap beer.
