Yesterday, on the way home from Reno, we stopped at JAX Truckee Diner. My wife ordered biscuits and gravy and I got the crab cake Benedict. We split our plates between us and both were very tasty. Although we had already had plenty over the course of the weekend, also working in the diners favor was their having Lagunitas IPA on tap . Prices were decent, wait was a little long but worth it. Would totally go back. I give it a
The only other Triple D joint Ive been to was also in Truckee. We stopped at Burger Me last year on a different return trip from Reno. I got the Bison burger, which was their star menu item. At 1/3 lb and over $12, I was left hungry and light in the wallet. Service was crappy, food was marginal, especially based on the price. Doubtful return to that spot. I give it a .5

I went to a great little diner in Howell, MI this weekend called Applebees. We started off with some drinks (Beer and a comically titled Margarita) and then ordered some Apps (Potato skins and Spinach, Artichoke dip) and followed it up with a coupla Burgers. I did not get dessert because I was full, but I bet it would have been great. All in all, I would give the experience

describe the ambiance
It was pretty dimly lit and I was wearing sunglasses so everything beyond my table was an impenetrable blackness. It must have been pretty nice, though because I heard very few screams.
Hmmm, do we have a MvF thread here? I haven't been to any but I've been to a bunch of places with food challenges...hmm
ever done any of the challenges?
there's a local one here, a friend of mine did it. i was thinking about doing it just to write my name on the chalk board and get the free shirt. then i thought, i'll just enjoy my sandwich and buy the shirt.
Haven't built up the resolve yet, though there is one at a local pho place I think I can do. The website doesn't show it, have to get the specs next time I go there....I can fuck up a bowl of some pho.....

Today we had lunch at the Tattoed Moose, a place in Charleston that was on Dinerz, Driv-inz, and Divez. One of the best lunches I've ever had. A roasted duck club sandwich, and fries cooked in duck fat then covered in a blue cheese sauce and a bulb of roasted garlic. It was fantastic. Topped it off with an Evil Twin The Cowboy smoked pilsner.

Man vs Food is a far superior show.
Adam Richman is very likable. He resembles Adam Duritz as well.....
