So, Grill Em All; watching them on The Great Food TruckRace, Eat St., multiple news and other food event coverages, and seeing their name across “Top Food Truck” lists and magazines, i have had only one other food truck with this much anticipation… that being The Grilled Cheese Truck

Nothing like it. Stands alone, best fried chicken ever. Yard bird…whatever you want to call it, they know how to fix it RIGHT..

Easily one of my favorite restaurants of all time. The service is top notch, the food is amazing, and the overall experience is magically. The price is absurd and the meal takes forever, but what do you expect at this level of dining?

We don’t get down to this area very much but after a visit to Ikea we decided we had to try this place since it was not far away.

Happy Dog was one of the first to open in the city during what I’ve come to know as a sort of culinary renaissance for Cleveland.

Harriet’s Cheesecakes are the best cheesecakes I’ve ever had. The store is small and looks like the kind of place you don’t expect much from.

Ah the West Side Country Club. I just wish I could go there more often. This is one of the corner stones of Evansville. My favorite thing there is either the Hilltopper Burger or a Fish Sandwich (especially during Lent). If you haven’t been to the Hilltop then you are missing out on the best tavern food in Evansville.

This has to be one of the best hamburgers I’ve ever had in my life. My fav is the Blue Jay and it does not disappoint. Last time I asked my server to just bring me what he’d been having for the last 3 days and he brought me an AMAZING tuna sandwich.

And so, don’t let the simple exterior of Hog Heaven fool you into thinking this is not worth a second take. You’d be sadly mistaken.

Both this location and in Napa are delicious. It has become one of our must-stops whenever we plan a trip to the city. It’s not like they have a huge menu or anything but we love what they have so much it keeps us coming back.

Thanks to my guy’s birthday that is sandwiched between Christmas, the New Year and the craziness of the holidays in between, I will end 2012 with a 5 Star review.

Hugo’s is one of the those West Hollywood mainstays. It’s been around forever and I’ve been going here forever.

So, yeah…I ate Humphrey Slocombe twice one week: Brown Sugar Fennel one day, Secret Breakfast another.

We visited Husk a while after reading a New Yorker article about the owner. I’d long wanted to make a trip to Charleston (from our home in DC), and I’m so glad we did. I loved the city, but the thing that will bring us back is Husk.

Came here with my friends and was SO pleasantly surprised by the menu. We sat outside on the patio and enjoyed a lot of delicious wine from the owner’s vineyards in Italy. I was also pleased to see the owner Nicola making his way around tables chatting to guests and making them feel welcome.

What is there not to like about this place?! I must have been here three times during my vacation because I couldn’t get enough of the ice cream.

After wanting to try Ike’s for years, we finally tried it and it was delicious! The line gets long very early and it takes quite a while to order your food, but it’s worth it. I recommend calling in your order unless you want to wait in the long line. The staff is very friendly and the crowd there was very laid back.

Favorite Italian in the city, Chicken parm is top notch & consistent, the breading on that juicy cut of chicken is amazing, and it’s not too cheesy.

Hosted a birthday dinner here a couple years ago. It was a challenging selection for vegetarians (I believe they had one pasta option to choose from) but for meat eaters the experience was divine.

The atmosphere is a bit cheesy (seriously, do we need the waiters to yell Itadakimasu every 5 minutes?) and the wait on any given day is long and frankly unnecessary, but the food is fantastic.
