I do food reviews for most of the restaurants that I dine at.

I take photos, write and post reviews of the food, the service and atmosphere.

They are honest reviews, but I look for positive things to say. These are posted on Google Maps.

When you are looking for a place to eat in your area the google map brings up restaurants and has reviews related thereto.

I recently reviewed a place in Arkansas that served a baked potato that I described as microwaved. They responded it was not microwaved and asked how do I suggest they make it better?

I decided to make a better potato. Introducing the Club Spud…

Scrubbed clean so you can eat the skin if you so desire.

Poked with a fork so they don’t “explode” and will cook faster.

Salted w fresh ground, pink Himalayan salt.

Baked in the air fryer. It’s just a convection oven.

It’s ready. Splitting them for stuffing.

Pats-o-butter. Real Land-o-Lakes butter.

To be Toppings; Colby jack, white American cheeses, smoked, shaved turkey and bacon!

Air-fried until melty and bacon pieces added.

The potato was soft and creamy. The skin was just crisp and salty. The toppings were hot and melty with a bacon crunch.

This was a proper Club Spud.

Enjoy!

I often joke that lunch is the highlight of my day with the only competition being “Quittin’ Time!”

Why is lunch the highlight? It is a welcome respite for days which are routinely emotional and tough. Days in which you never know what the next call will be, how urgent, or how critical a need may be. A Lunch break allows you to decompress and recharge. Also, in my area, there are some fantastic lunch spots.

From mainstream eateries to hole-in-the-wall, off the beaten path diners, one of my hobbies is reviewing lunch spots for the website and social media powerhouse EatJxn.

Visiting different and various restaurants has resulted in new friends, exposure to new cuisine and a greater appreciation that food, instead of dividing us as my work tends to do, is a force that can bring people together. One of my favorite local spots and favorite reviews is for the Country Kitchen off of West County Line Road, in Jackson, right across the street from Tougaloo College. Other reviews may be read here, EatJXN Matthew.

Also, I love to eat.
