There really is something quite magical about Coney Island out of season. Even in the rain and drizzle I love riding the train over here from Manhattan just to take a stroll on the deserted board walk and of course to sample a hot dog or two from Nathan’s Famous. It’s not that glamorous or…
Al’s Burger Shack – Top notch Burgers in the Triangle
Al’s Burger Shack in Chapel Hill has been one of my best moments on this MyFoodHunt trip in the Carolinas. I think that this is the best burger I have chomped on for quite some time, and I seem to eat quite a lot of them. Pretty much everyone I asked about getting a good…
The Big Easy – Nice PoBoy and Muffuletta, some classic N’awlins food in Cary
The Big Easy in Cary is located over at Harrison Point just off Harrison. It is one of the closest restaurants to my Cary Apartment and seems to be a bit of a favourite with the local condo residents judging by the crowd I find in there on a Friday and Saturday nights. On their…
Tacos from Taqueria La Esquina in a Gas Station? I had to check this out, and Well ? it worked out pretty good !
Taqueria La Esquina was quite a surprising find on one of myfoodhunt lunchtime expiditions. I stopped off at the Shell Gas Station on the corner of 54 and Airport Boulevard and saw that they had a taco spot inside that looked pretty authentic. There was a whole group of workmen inside in their fluorescent jackets ordering…

Dunhill Café in Midtown – A Good option for a Breakfast Sandwich
Dunhill Café on 45th Street between 7th Avenue and The Avenue of the Americas is a pretty good option for reasonably priced breakfast if you are staying in Midtown. Last week I was billeted at the Grace Boutique Hotel just a short walk from Times Square and this place was just perfect as it was…
The Perfect Storm Burger at Full Moon Oyster Bar
Last time I was at the Full Moon Oyster Bar the Burger sandwiches had looked so good that I made a mental note and perhaps a blog comment that I would be back to try one. I liked the nautical sound of their “8 Oz Perfect Storm Burger” which they describe as: “This juicy burger…
Noodle Blvd – Huge bowls of authentic tasty regional noodle soup
Noodle Blvd in Cary say that they ‘provide a fresh and unique take on authentic regional noodle dishes’, they also make a point of noting that they use ‘Healthy and Simple Ingredients’ that are ‘Second to None’. I had spotted it a number of times as I pottered my way around the area, this particular…

A Salt and Battery on Greenwich Avenue in Manhattan NYC serve my favourite Fish and Chips in the USA. I first wrote about this place in 2011 when I was a expat living in Chicago hunting for foods from back home (read about that on one of my first blogs The Chicago El Stop Food Hunt Project) , back…
