The Brunch Box over on Chapel Hill Road in Morrisville is a great family run deli that I have chanced upon during myfoodhunt lunchtime travels in the Triangle. I think this one of the best places I have found to get a real deli style sandwich! On each visit there has been a line all the way out…

Jake’s Wayback Burgers – Sampling the ‘Cheeesey’ and the ‘Ghostbustin Burger’
Jake’s Wayback Burgers over at Surles Court in Durham (kind of in Durham to be honest) is part of a chain of burger joints that numbers around 120 outlets in 27 States. They also somewhat randomly have restaurants in Argentina, Brunei, and Saudi Arabia. The chain started back in 1991 in Newark, Delaware and has grown quite a bit…
Bruegger’s Bagels – Barnyard Burger, and a Ham and Cheese melt
Bruegger’s Bagels over at Shiloh Crossing is one of numerous locations in the RTP. This one just off 54 was pretty handy for me as it has a massive Walmart nearby across the parking lot so I was able to munch before I shopped. On their website they say that they are “committed to serving genuine…
Pho 919 – Dialled in on Local Vietnamese Fare
PHO 919 over on Davis Drive at Morrisville Market is a really laid back Vietnamese diner serving up some pretty good food. I love that they have taken the Local Area code of 919 to be part of their name, and not just so that I could add a pun to the post tagline. On their website…
The Pit BBQ – Chowing down on the Triple Combo in Downtown Raleigh
The Pit in Raleigh is a bit of a destination BBQ restaurant to us Expat visitors. When friends and colleagues heard that I was staying in the area they all said that you have to try the Pit. It seems that everyone talks about it as a place to get good BBQ downtown. It also piqued…
Raleigh Beer Garden – Lots of beer! a lot of good beer, need I say more?
Raleigh Beer Garden on Glenwood Avenue claim to fame is that they “are proud to offer the world’s largest selection of draft beers available in one restaurant” I read that they are actually in the Guinness book of records for having the most beer pumps, 366 I heard. I like to try a few different beers…
Time-Out Grill for Southern Cooking, a Cheddar Chicken Biscuit and some Man v Food worship
Time-Out Grill on East Franklin is a famous 24/7 restaurant serving up fried chicken and more in the streets by the UNC Campus (University of North Carolina). I had first heard of this place via the Travel Channel and Adam Richman who had nominated their Cheddar Chicken Biscuit, a Tar-heel favourite, as one of the Best Sandwiches…
Bond Brothers Brewery – DownTown Fall Festival – Food Trucks and Beer
This weekend I had made plans to seek out some of the local breweries in Cary, North Carolina, and I had The Bond Brothers Beer Company on my radar and in my sights. It was pretty lucky for me that the same day I chose to visit coincided with the Downtown Fall Festival; a collaboration between…
Backyard BBQ Pit – Truly Excellent BBQ chowing down on the “Working Man’s Special”
Backyard BBQ Pit is located on the NC-55 route just south of Durham in North Carolina. It is well known in the area for great BBQ and I had even heard of the place before I landed in the state having seen them on an episode of Man vs Food Good old Mike from @runnersthoughts picked me…
Steel String Brewery – Some excellent locally brewed beers, original, refreshing, and well tasty
Steel String Brewery in Carrboro was a most excellent find on myfoodhunt tour around North Carolina. I really do like discovering local craft beers and microbreweries as they all seem to be so dedicated to the cause and come up with some truly excellent ideas to put into my glass. I found an excellent quote in an article…
