Beef Lo Mein

My wife loves to eat at the Peking Chinese Restaurant in Danville, WV. She calls it "Boone County Chinese". It is actually very good if your ever in the area.

The Burger Carte's Al Burger

The Burger Carte restaurant on Rt. 60 in Smithers, WV has been an area landmark for many decades. We recently visited the Burger Carte to take on their version of the famous Al Burger. Priced at $6.50 each, this three meat sandwich was top notch. It was great to taste this timeless local classic once again. Kudo's to Doug and Debbie Divita for keeping the Burger Carte experience alive.

This old statue of Mother Mary was in an old cemetery in Logan County, WV.
