Where's the Beef?

Today i went to a burger spot that i'm quite fond of. It's LBOE or Last Burger on Earth to the fancy types lol. This burger spot is located in the heart of Midtown on Overton Square at 2021 Madison Ave. This is in a prime food spot on the Square. There seems to always be another great food spot to visit on the Square every day and this is one of the best! 

I'm always on a constant search for a better burger and Memphis offers a great selection. Of all the burgers I've had, LBOE is definitely in my top 5. I've visited about 3 times and I've never gotten the same burger and each time i'm more impressed than the last. Today was no different. 

Today i went with the Madison Melt. OMG!! It was incredible! The burger was cooked perfectly Medium Well and the toppings were amazing. Ham, bacon, sauteed onions, Cheddar !! HEAVEN on a bun!! speaking of bun, their ciabatta buns are the best ever. They aren't hard and are lightly toasted giving them a great little crunch. Paired with a bag of VooDoo chips and it was a perfect lunch. 

If you haven't tried LBOE, you are truly missing out on a tasty burger!

Sorry for the Wait...

I have totally neglected posting a blog entry. I have been very busy with work and my impromptu moving. I literally woke up one day and decided that i was moving downtown.  I have been on quite a few food adventures. So let's get the road on the show!!!

Visited Slider Inn. It's always a great experience. I don't think I've ever had the same combination. I go for the Mix and Match. 3 sliders of your choice with fries. For this trip, I went with the Memphis Original, Fish Taco, and the Fried buffalo chicken. 

I went over to Trolley Stop and had an incredible pork chop for lunch. I was very impressed. I didn't think i would like it, but went for it because it was the lunch special. It comes with 2 sides so I opted for mashed potatoes and fresh fruit.  

You can never go wrong with Street tacos and you can never go wrong with Cafe Ole! The food and the atmosphere are always great! a patio dinner is a great way to spend some time with that special someone....weather permitting. We all know how unpredictable the Memphis weather can be. 

Another trip to Dixon Gallery for Food Truck Fridays! I went with the smoked chicken club from Food Geeks. Incredible! Service was top notch. 

Took a trip to Cheffi's Cafe in the Highpoint area. I have never experienced a salad made this way and i was more than impressed. I know a salad and beer combo isn't an ideal fit, but how can you say no to a Samuel Adams October fest??

Took a midday trip over to Shelby Farms for Slide Fest. I had such high hopes for this. The hype was definitely high for this event. Sadly, it did not live up to the hype. It was a great idea, but poorly executed. I don't like writing about bad experiences , but this one was worth mentioning. Not only was the location not ideal, but you couldn't slide the entire thing. there were 2 to 3 areas that you had to stand and walk a bit a slide again. There were lots of dry spots on the slide as well. It had all the possibility to be great, but it was just not worth the money.
