Continuing my exploration of the food in Bogota, Colombia led us to a unique restaurant called La Jugueteria. After several days of lots and lots of street food, my final night in Bogota we opted to eat at a “nice” restaurant and drop the kind of cash you wouldn’t normally come close to spending on [...]

After my Pop Tart’s World experience, I knew I had to go find something even crazier to eat while in NYC. This led me to Long Island City in Queens, where I met my best friend from college for a tasty lunch at El Ay Si (get it? like LIC for Long Island City?).  He [...]

A month or two ago I had the opportunity to try Z Burger, an up and coming burger chain in the DC metro area.  The worst part about Z Burger is the fact that it is essentially a blatant copycat of Five Guys.  However, this is also the best part about it.  Instead of falling short, they [...]

Center for Science in the Public Interest (you know those guys like to party) has awarded a “Xtreme Eating Award” to Applebee’s for their Quesadilla Burger. Now you may be thinking to yourself, “I like things that are extreme”, “I like eating” or maybe even “I like awards.”  That seems to be part of the [...]

Before Meat Madness, I made some predictions.  I knew bacon would win, figured steak would be upset, and knew pulled pork would make a run.  In turns out I won, no rigging involved.  And my reward?  A 25 dollar gift certificate to Outback Steakhouse.   Far be it for me to complain about a free [...]

Update #2: Since many people don’t seem to believe that Quiznos didn’t play a role, or at least didn’t have an understanding that the video was being made, I placed a call to Playboy to see if they could shed some light on Quiznos involvement (or lack of involvement) in regards to this video.
