The other day I noticed Foster's Grille on Pine Island Road took home the dubious title of "Cape Coral's Best Hamburger" from one of our local media outlets.

These regional "Best Of" lists always worry me.  They're usually full of questionable winners and arcane categories.  This particular list had a category of "Best Aluminum Store".  I wonder what criteria was used by the voting public to narrow down the winner of that competition?  And who votes on these things anyway?  In an internet and cell-phone world, are there still people who take the time to fill out, and then mail in, newspaper forms like these?  Judging by the winners announced in many of the categories, I would guess the demographic responding to this particular survey consisted of four blue-haired, elderly, snowbird-women from Cleveland and some random guy who owns an aluminum store.

I want to admit my bias upfront on this review...I Love Cheeseburger in Paradise.

In my line of work, there are lots of restaurants and not enough time to try them all.  So, it's rare that I make multiple and/or consecutive visits to the same establishment.  But I've got a soft spot for Cheeseburger in Paradise.  I keep going back and it keeps getting better.

Almost everyone from Massachusetts knows Lansdowne Street is the road running behind Fenway Park.

Bonita Springs now has its own Lansdowne Street.  And while it's not located just a few footsteps from the legendary home of the Boston Red Sox, it sure feels like it from inside.
