OK, Here we go..... I think it only fair to start with this photo as this trip to Tokyo, and the inspiration of these two guys with me in the photo, really kicked off my interest in exploring food, photographing said eats, and sharing/explaining my impressions of my experiences. So, to you David Chang and Anthony Bourdain, Cheers, and thanks. As I begin I think it only fair to explain a bit of what my purpose with this blog is. As you know, I do not participate in Facebook, and I wont go into why here, but I NEEDED a vehicle to communicate and connect with those in my life, both near and far. As the name implies, this will primarily be a blog about pizza. However, as this is mine, I will feel free to do and say as I damn well please, as it pleases me. So I hope to not offend or tiptoe too far over the line of appropriateness, but if I do, that's just too fucken bad. Enjoy. Pizza, food, life experiences, thoughts, feelings, rants, and more food. This is what you will find here. Please feel free to share and pass along to anyone you think might have an interest, as I hope you will as well. Sincerely yours, DVA

Made From Scratch Biscuits, Carl's Jr.

Eeeeesh, yeah

Let's do this!

I know that there's been an inordinate amount of fast-food blogging going on with Your-Pie lately, and I'm not really able to put my finger on it, or in it, or whatever.  But I'm not, however, to the point where I'm viewing it as a problem, at least not just yet. 

We're monitoring the situation though, so rest assured.

I am a fan of biscuits, as Courtnie can attest to.  Love me some Bojangles Cajun Chick-n-Biscuits SOOOO MUCH.  As of late Carl's Jr. has been killing the airwaves with their made-from-scratch biscuits commercials, and I've been REALLLLY wanting to try one.  And today is the day.  I'm a little under the weather and need some grease (thanks Donovan's!!!), but do I have any idea how much grease I've gotten myself into???   what?  Nevermind.   Here we go.

The order has been placed, I'm having coffee and someone else is having a soda. 



Im "enjoying" the Sausage, Egg, and Cheese Biscuit and the Loaded Omelet Biscuit, 
some Hashbrown Nuggets are also along for the ride.


So far the only thing that I see "loaded" is the hashbrown wrapper loaded with grease.....


Here is what I expected


This is what showed up.

Not too entirely different. 


And then this one I was REALLLLLLLLY looking forward to!

This is what I expected


This is what arrived


Uhmmm, there's something wrong here.  Someone stole all of my omelet guts!!!!

Really Carl?!?!?!  WTF?


Then I thought "maybe it would taste soooooo great that I could forget the appearance?"
Nah, I'm just kidding myself, and you too apparently.  This was pretty terrible.  The biscuits tasted like, and had the texture of pound cake.  Yes, the tops were buttery and, OK obviously the grandma in the kitchen baking these things fresh every morn'n brushes the tops with butter after they're done, but that's about it.  And did I say salty???  Holy b-jesus!!!!  Wowzer!  I need some water! 



I feel bad, badder than I did before I did this to myself

Physically and emotionally

DVA


Is there anyone out there?.....
