Food Photo(s) Friday - Hopdoddy Heaven

Hello, Lover.

It may not be winning any awards for healthiest meal, but daaaaaaamn, it's worth it. Hopdoddy's burgers are my favorites in town, hands down. So juicy, so thick, so meaty, so de-luscious. And their fries aren't too shabby, either. They grind their own beef and cut their own fries from Kennebec potatoes. Everything is just so fresh and amazing.

I usually get the Greek burger. Lamb, feta cheese, arugula, pickled red onions, and tzatziki sauce. In other words, heaven in a perfect house-made bun.

Speaking of their house-made buns, they also offer house-made puns.

Be sure to grab a beer to go with your meal. Hopdoddy's is always served ice-cold in huge, frosty mugs. A perfect way to wash it all down.

Is it lunchtime, yet?

Food Photo(s) Friday - Hot Dog King

Workin' all week, 9 to 5 for my money
So when I go out to eat it had better be yummy
Rollin' down the street, I saw this food truck it was pumpin'
I winked my eye, got outta my ride, walked on over, it was jumpin'
Checked the menu; finally said, "A Deer Dog's my desire,"
She said, "One venison dog comin' up, baby doll - and these jalapenos are on fire,"
Word to the ranks: if you want a great frank, look no further than Hot Dog King
They're so all right that baby, just one bite will make you want to do the wild thing.
