Danny’s Bar-B-Que in Morrisvillle was one of the first places that I visited on this MyFoodHunt Tour of North Carolina. On that first visit I had a simple BBQ pork sandwich with a side of Brunswick stew (read about that here). Today I was back in with my great friends Dan and Meredith who are…

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…
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…
Jimmy’s Famous Hot Dogs – Two Dog Combo Carolina Style
Jimmy’s Famous Hot Dogs on HWY 55 is one of two dog shack locations in the South Durham area. The one we visited is the newer one moving to its current location inside an old waffle house building earlier in the year I have been told. The sign out front says that they serve burgers,…
Salsa Fresh Original Mexican Grill – Time for some Taco’s!
Salsa Fresh ‘original Mexican Grill’ at Morrisville Market is one of three locations in the Triangle, the other two are in Raleigh. They say they serve everything as Fresh (every day), no freezers, no microwaves, this all sounded really promising. They also say that “Salsa Fresh offers the best California-style Mexican food in Raleigh”. Ok so to…
Hot Dogs at The Roast Grill – Family owned for generations and really good too!
The Roast Grill was number one on my list of places to visit in Raleigh NC to get a hot dog. I think it was the stories I had read about how it had been here since 1940 and how it had hardly changed during that time that really whet my appetite and piqued my excitement…
Chirba Chirba Dumpling Food Truck – Bayside Chive for me please!
Chirba Chirba Dumpling Truck was one of the many Food Trucks at the Wide Open Bluegrass Festival. I had read about these guys when I was planning my trip to North Carolina and had been hoping to bump into them at some point I had walked all the way down Fayettville Street looking at every…
Tasty 8’s Gourmet Hot Dogs – The DogFather
Tasty 8’s Gourmet Hot Dogs in Raleigh is located on Fayettville Street up at the end near to the State Capitol building. I like a hot dog and I am always intrigued when someone says that they have a ‘gourmet’ dog, it sounds like a oxymoron. I am always willing to take a chance and I…
