Bill & Hiroko’s Burgers | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 57 Quincy James Freeman26 April 2016031 views Bill Elwell, 89, might be the oldest man still working in the restaurant industry, but even if he is not, he is definitely one of the most content. He has owned and worked at the stand he purchased in the 1960s, and it does not seem that he could be any happier. The beloved stand, located on Oxnard Street between Van Nuys Blvd and Kester, was filled with customers as I arrived just before 3p.m. On this week's episode of The Burger Crawl, my friend (Wayne) and I take a trip up to Van Nuys, and try Bill & Hiroko's Burger for the first time. We enjoyed ourselves. and Bill's definitely lives up to the motto on their business card, "What In-N-Out Used To Be." I found out about Bill's Burger after being referred by a friend, and directed to the article Matthew Kang of Eater L.A. wrote in 2013 when Bill was 86 years young. Matthew's article (http://la.eater.com/2013/4/17/6450255/bill-elwell-of-bill-hirokos-hamburgers-in-van-nuys) gave a decent history and interview of the small burger stand, which I will let you read for yourself. What Matthew did not cover in the article is that Hiroko Wilcox's father allegedly shot Bill in the ass during World War II. Even if that is just an old wise-tale, Wayne and I still got a good laugh out of the irony.

Big Earth Cafe | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 56 Quincy James Freeman15 April 2016042 views If you are from Los Angeles, then you know who Big Boy is. Big Boy is the famed radio host of many popular radio stations in the city, I would say Power 106 is the most notable, and longest run (but don't quote me on that.) Additionally, you know that Big Boy had weight loss surgery. Well in 2016, he, his brother, and Food Network Star Contestant Kevin Robert have opened a healthy food cafe in North Hollywood. It is basically right up the street from Universal Studios on Lankersheim. On today's episode of The Burger Crawl, I sit down with Chef Roberts, and my friend and copy editor, Tatyanna Wilkinson, of the local blog I Heart NoHo (http://www.iheartnoho.com/).

Hawaiian Ahi Poke @ Slater’s 50/50 | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 55 Quincy James Freeman8 April 2016032 views I have been going to Slater's 50/50 for about 3 years now, and the Pizza Burger has held the crown as my favorite burger within the chain.

Steak N Shake | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 54 Quincy James Freeman1 April 2016041 views I really put forth a good attempt to make it to Shake Shack's West Hollywood, CA opening, but it was late, and the line was ridiculously long. I was hungry, and if you need more excuses I can come up with them later. KHA Entertainment's Billy and I decided to find food elsewhere. We made our way to the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica, CA where there is a Steak N Shake. Due to misinformation from Billy, I thought Steak N Shake was somehow related but he was completely wrong. Aside from a similar name, the two chains have nothing to do with each other. Steak N Shake is a delicious burger. The bacon could have been better but that just may be me being picky. I hope you enjoy this week's episode of The Burger Crawl.

Alton Brown creates Umami’s Breakfast Burger | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 52 Quincy James Freeman18 March 2016032 views Alton Brown is the food mad scientist. He does things with food in such an way that it simply blows your mind when you eat it. As he joins the ranks of other chefs, musicians, and actors, like José Andres, Mindy Kaling, and The Black Eyes, who have created their own limited-time burgers for Umami Burger's Art Series, The Alton Burger is no exception.

Appreciate – Ep. 1 | Cue The Critic Quincy James Freeman12 March 2016056 views This is the pilot episode of my new series entitled Appreciate. This series will highlight people who are following their dreams and living the life that they what. My hope is that the people who are featured on this series will inspire my viewers to take a step out on faith and follow their own dreams. For the first episode I sat down with the guy who is responsible for getting me on youtube, Mr. Cue The Critic! In this episode we get an introspective look at the life of the man behind the youtube series entitled ‘The Burger Crawl’. First off, I WOULD LIKE TO APOLOGIZE FOR THE FOOTAGE BEING OUT OF FOCUS. I am a perfectionist and it pissed me off that I had made such an amateur mistake. I guess I was so excited to finally be shooting my first youtube video that I forgot to recheck my focus when I hit record and started the interview. I wanted to reshoot the whole thing but it would’ve been nearly impossible to recreate the raw and great emotional answers that we got from Cue. With all that said, enjoy the video.

Lunch @ Fresh & Meaty w/ D Hill | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 51 Quincy James Freeman12 March 2016049 views My friend, Dorian Hill, and I have been trying to figure out how to start his YouTube channel for just about a year. About a week or so ago, we finally got together and filmed my first [official] interview on YouTube, and his first YouTube video. In this collaboration, we decided to go to Fresh & Meaty, a local burger joint on the Los Angeles/Inglewood border. Fresh & Meaty is one of South Central's quintessential burger places. It is simple, down-home goodness that is cherished by the community that surrounds it. I am glad that Dorian and I chose such a filling and delicious plate to wrap up our filming.
