It s the Thursday before Valentine s Day and I had a decision to make. Do I pick a song that is pro-Valentine, anti-Valentine, or goes in a totally different direction and pick a song that somehow relates to this tundra we are currently living in?
Then I had an epiphany. I heard Pop Smoke s What You Know Bout Love and I knew what I had to do. What You Know Bout Love samples Differences by Ginuwine from 2001. So, I guess we are going pro-Valentine this year. And the song is over four minutes long and I knew that would annoy Andy. It s a win-win.
Just about everybody at one point or another has worked in some kind of customer service role whether it be retail, restaurants, call centers, etc. Everyone has a story about 'that' customer.
It's really cold right now. Highs are in the single digits and lows are well below zero. When it gets this cold it is often the first time some people pull out their heavy winter coats for the first time. This does sound a little crazy.
This year there are 24 burgers competing. Challenge accepted.
I ve previously told you all about The Farmer s Breakfast Burger at Wiley s and the Sriracha Chili Bacon Cheese Burger at Phillips Avenue Diner. Both great contenders. Then there was the Burger Wellington at Bread & Circus and The Santa Fe Chimi Burger at The Holiday Inn City Centre. The last burgers we discussed was Dr. Love at Pave and Blarney Stone s The Golden Porker.
The contender on the menu today is The Uptowner from Papa Woody s Wood Fired Pizza. Yes, you read that correctly. They usually do pizza, however, their offering for the Burger Battle was legit.
