Kuma's Corner

To anyone who has ever sat and stuffed their face at this joint, known for serving the most influential burger of all time, this news comes as no surprise.

I didn't realize that Diners, Drive-Ins, And Dives is into its 40th season of touring the country looking for the best home-owned joints in the country, but here we are.

As I've mentioned before, we're huge fans of Guy Fieri and Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives in my house, often leaving it on in the background as "comfort television." But, did you know that Guy and "Triple-D" have visited 40 Illinois restaurants?

Illinois should be known for more than just pizza and hot dogs.

For all the hype pizza and hot dogs receive in Illinois it might be time to start thinking about the Land of Lincoln as a great burger state too.
