With summer slowly beginning to fade I decided to join some friends up on Grand Lake. After spending the day relaxing on the waterfront, we went swimming and then went hiking down a spillway and then began to walk back through Disney, Oklahoma to the starting point of our trek. After all the activities of [...]

Here comes Tulsa’s very first Panda Express! Panda Express is the newest addition to the 71st Street restaurant line up.  This west coast chain offers all your favorite Chinese dishes fast, hot and fresh.  One of my favorites to order is the 2 entree dish with Orange Chicken and Kung Pao Chicken with white rice.  [...]

Out for an afternoon drive, a friend and I stumbled across Freddie’s Hamburgers (not to be confused with the Freddie’s Frozen Custard chain). Freddie’s had been recommended from several different people on the Tulsa Food Blog and so we decided to stop in. The building is not much to look at but reminiscent of a [...]

I met up with a friend at his favorite burger joint Arnold’s Old Fashioned Hamburgers. It is definitely a dive with that greasy felling that you would expect at a hole in the wall burger joint. The food is so good though. I had a double cheeseburger, onion rings and a chocolate malt. The burger [...]

Upon the recommendation of my boss I decided to give Firehouse Subs a shot. I had never heard of it before and its nondescript location next to Gold’s gym had caused me to overlook it in the past. The whole place is decorated in firehouse theme. They give you the option of having your sub [...]

If you happen to be driving in South Tulsa / Bixby today you may have noticed a large conglomeration of people camping out in front of the soon to open Chick-Fil-A.  A few of our readers were wondering what they were doing. Well we found out thanks to Jenny and E. Any time that a [...]

Having drove by Baja Jack’s everyday for work I was anxious to give it a shot. On a business lunch I convinced my partner to go to Baja Jack’s. The sheer size of the menu is impressive. I ordered the Build your own Burrito, which was great because you can pick whatever you like and [...]

As the big game draws near, people seem to always be scrambling for last minute party ideas. Everyone is looking for something to do whether it is going out to dinner where you can watch the game or taking a dish to a friend’s house. Food has always been a huge portion of the celebration [...]

Qdoba has been a favorite of mine for a long time and I happy to say that I was not disappointed when I visited there again this week. My guest had never been to Qdoba so I suggested my personal favorite the Queso Burrito. This burrito is loaded with rice, beans, your choice of steak [...]

Today my hat’s off to Backyard Burgers, for listening to their customers and bringing back the Black and bleu Burger. In a fast food crazy world it is hard to just accept cheap tasting food and Backyard Burger makes sure that you don’t. As a burger lover it is easy to tell a really good [...]

I don’t typically write reviews on large franchise eateries, BUT I have to share Firehouse Subs with you. It is my second favorite place to eat in Tulsa. The Tulsa location is at 66th and Memorial Drive in the same building as the new Gold’s Gym. I have heard that the franchise owner of this [...]

Its a beautiful Saturday afternoon in Tulsa Oklahoma today, I made plans to go for a walk, watch a movie, hang out but then out of nowhere I got this craving for a Black and Blue Burger from Backyard Burger, must have been in light of the burger I had a Karl’s Famous Burgers yesterday [...]

Ok so I don’t go to McDonalds very often because there’s no way to eat healthy there, and let’s face it – If you want to splurge, you want it to be on a “real” burger, not off McDonald’s “dollar menu”. However, the apple pies made by Tulsa’s own Bama Companies, are delicious! I told [...]
