Tulsa Food

I love downtown, but I hardly ever get down there. Sometimes, its just too inconvenient. I recently heard from a bird that The Hunt Club has been opening for lunch past couple months. So, I decided to check it out while I just conveniently happened to already be downtown. A quaint and cool little place [...]

The season is getting warmer. People are starting to mosey out of their home caves. Vacations are being planned. For those quick get-a-ways out of town, us Tulsans like to venture for a day or night to Oklahoma City. Bricktown is a well known and popular spot, but instead of going for the usual spot, [...]

Established almost a year ago, the new south location is nice little getaway from midtown and downtown areas. Sometimes those other places are too stuffed, packed, cramped, etc. They get you in and get you out. A systematic routine of hording the hungry zombies. Not Cardigans. So, when mom called and said, “Lets do lunch!”, [...]

A Tulsa dining institution since 1956, Brownie’s Hamburger Stand still has that 50′s feel. Coupled with raved about homemade root beer and homemade pies, Brownie’s provides a burger experience with a cult following. Joe Price of JoesBurgerSearch.com says that, “Brownie’s is as pure of a burger joint as there ever has been.” Checkout this blog [...]

When John Phillips wrote that hit song about how dreadful Mondays are, you can tell he wasn’t living in Tulsa. If he were, he’d have been too excited about the special restaurant deals waiting for him on Monday evening to even start thinking bad thoughts about the first day of the work week. Here are [...]

I used to walk four miles to go to Ron’s. Back then, Ron’s was located in what looked like, and probably at one time was, a little country shack out near Harvard. There was a long counter with about 12 stools. No tables. The place was always packed and there’d be a line of people [...]

Located on main street in downtown Broken Arrow, Main Street Tavern sits on a busy corner inviting patrons in for a relaxing break. The restaurant/bar is a new fixture to the area, but feels like it has been there for decades. The owners, Jason and Kat Scarpa planned it that way. They renovated the 1904 [...]

1988. President Reagan was sending aid to our allies, including a young man named Osama bin Laden, to fight the Soviet Union in Afghanistan. If you had a great time at the bar and wanted to share it, you’d snap some photos, rush to the store to have the film developed, and then run to [...]

Fat Guys Burger Bar is a special kind of joint here in Tulsa. If you’ve been there then you understand what I’m talking about. A menu of only double burgers with a list of addictive specialty burgers and one which I cannot get over. Whether your in the mood for a quality double cheeseburger, a [...]

It was Sunday afternoon, another beautiful Spring day in Tulsa. We wanted a patio, a burger and some down time. We just wanted to hang. The first restaurant that popped in my head was Campus Grill. We love their burger (weighing in at 1/2 pound) and I have been hearing things about a killer Memphis [...]

Each and every month, one of my favorite spots in town to grab a bite and a pint comes out with a new specials menu, ranging from Soups, Appetizers, Desserts, delicious German specialties for Oktoberfest to one of my favorites, BURGERS. Last year I went down to Kilkenny’s with 8 other burger lovers, and we [...]

My last burger post of 2010 ends up being one of my favorites of all time – a road trip to Meers, Oklahoma to The Meers Store. Meers, Oklahoma is around 200 miles and over 3 hours from Tulsa, OK. Have heard many great things about the Meers Burger that’s made from Longhorn cattle that [...]

Did you know that there is a radio show in Tulsa dedicated to Foodies? It’s called OKFoodie and  there are a few ways to listen in; On the radio every Saturday afternoon at One and Sunday mornings at Nine on AM 740 and FM 102.3.  You can listen anytime at their website http://www.okfoodie.com or my [...]

One of my favorite dishes, Biscuit & Gravy, is a southern dish normally eaten for breakfast and the comfort it bring me is second to none. Those of you that know me understand that my love for hamburgers is rooted in my soul. Last weekend, at opening night of the new Duke’s Southern Kitchen in [...]

If you’re an East Coast transplant homesick for New York and you can’t afford the price of a plane ticket home, just get yourself to the corner of Brady and Main. You’ll find a row of old brick houses that could have been moved brick by brick from the city where walking is a pastime [...]

Blogging is nothing short of an adventure. For me, my adventure involves a lot of food!  Good food, bad food, grassy food, fancy food, some crap I would never eat again, and just about everything else you could imagine. I often feel guilty anytime I order the same thing from a previous visit to a [...]

If you’re like me, you have a food bucket list which is basically a list of foods that you want to try at some point or another.  This year I am happily putting a check mark by the Krispy Kreme Hamburger.  Other things checked off my list include rocky mountain oysters (Thanks Ryan & Erica) [...]

Opening in 2001, owner Brett Rehorn, decided that Tulsa needed an authentic Irish Bar with true Irish libations and food.  To ensure authenticity Brett spent in excess of $1 Million Dollars (said in your best Dr. Evil voice) to create his Irish Bar in Ireland and have it shipped back to Tulsa for assembly.  He [...]

Many call Goldie’s Patio Grill a Tulsa staple and tradition, I agree. However, (with all due respect) I disagree with those that believe Goldie’s serves up one of Tulsa’s best burgers. Do they have a good burger? I think I am struggling with the answer…. do they? I recently had a good experience at Goldie’s [...]

The burger I’ve been hooked on at Billy’s since opening has been their Theta Burger. For those not from Oklahoma, a Theta burger is a burger topped with mayo, pickles, shredded cheddar cheese, and a hickory bbq sauce. These items in combination make an amazing burger. Billy’s version of the Theta keeps it classic with [...]

Having frequented Daily Grill multiples times with each experience being very good, I was looking forward to sampling their Black and Bleu Burger that was on their online menu which stated being stuffed, yeah stuffed, with Bleu Cheese and cracked black pepper and topped with a Bleu Cheese Mayo and served with their amazing Onion [...]

Day two of our glorious, college-nerd-style Spring Break (the kind where you don’t go to Padre or Cozumel or anywhere like that but instead stay home to cuddle the books you’ve been waiting to read for six months) was a fun-filled day. We: Slept in. Took a long nap. Went to bed early. (Are we [...]
