I will be featuring a of series burgers throughout the month of May, some from cities around Florida and a few from other states. To kick off this series, I’ll start with one of my [...]
This is my Top 25 of “Most Memorable Food” in 2012. They are all new food and dishes that I experienced this past year, some while traveling and some close to home. A few are from events that I attended and a couple dishes are from restaurants that unfortunately closed. (Try to dine at locally [...]
This past Friday I was really on a bacon kick. It’s not often that I will cook bacon at home for breakfast, then eat a donut topped with bacon, and then finish the day with dinner which includes more bacon. If you follow me on Instagram, you saw my plate featuring bacon, with fried eggs [...]
Today’s post is more of a personal entry. It is my 34th birthday, and it also happens to be the two-year anniversary for the Droolius blog. While this post may not be entirely for the blog, it does relate to food. And by food, I mean bacon. Chocolate covered bacon! A few weeks ago, I [...]

We had all just attended the Bacon Off Orlando 2012 event the day before, so we were discussing everything about bacon. From cooking tips and recipes using bacon, to sharing bacon facts and some [...]

I have always wanted to combine Red Velvet donuts with bacon for some reason. It’s not too much of a stretch. You can find chocolate covered bacon being sold, as well as bacon donuts, and they both seem to be a hit around the U.S. I’ve tasted both (individually) in the past and I [...]
Some times you just have to take the best of both worlds and combine them. Red Velvet Donuts and Candied Bacon. This is what I made and my contribution for the Central Florida Food Blogger Bake Sale taking place tomorrow Saturday, April 28th from 10am until 1pm at 427 S. New York Ave, Winter Park, [...]
Droolius can cook! Yes I really can, and I’ve decided to recreate a restaurant inspired dish once a month and post up the recipe and photos. So for this month’s recipe I’ve recreated Canadian Cheddar Cheese Soup, my favorite dish to eat at the Epcot Food & Wine Festival. (click image to enlarge) Every [...]
Sometimes there is an unexpected creation that is the best of both worlds. Take a bacon cheeseburger and replace the standard hamburger bun with 2 Krispy Kreme donuts, you get the infamous Luther Vandross burger. This amazing burger takes two popular food items and fuses it together into one crazy creation that packs flavor and [...]
