Eight Weeks of Eating, KRS-One Stories and a Time Machine Back to New Jersey

Episode Summary

This week is all about food, food, food. Julie and Jamie recap eight straight weeks of eating out, take a trip down memory lane to their New Jersey roots, drop a wild KRS-One story, and reveal a top three Florida steakhouse showdown. Plus, concerts, movie reviews, and an upcoming weekend packed with the Tattoo and Oddity Expo and a Hillary Duff concert on Father's Day.

The podcast keeps climbing the charts, now ranked number seven out of 250 in Canada and inside the top 20 in the US.

🍽 Restaurant HighlightsDave's Hot Chicken

Jamie is a fan, Julie is not. The Dave sauce gets a special mention. Jamie says unless something changes, hot chicken is just not for Julie.

Papa Chulos – Royal Palm Beach (Takeout)

Good but not great as takeout. The cheeseburger taco and lettuce wrap version got a little mangled in transit. Verdict: this is a dine in restaurant. Takeout does not do it justice.

Mario the Baker – Florida

Take home pizza night delivers again. Jamie got a gluten free pepperoni pizza with pineapple. Julie got a regular pizza with meatballs. Both were excellent and froze well for leftovers. Always solid.

McDonald's

Jamie had not eaten McDonald's in about a year and went all in with a Big Mac, extra Mac sauce, no bun, plus a six piece nugget and fries. Julie tried the Big Mac too and was pleasantly surprised. Verdict: good, but not as good as it was back in the day.
