A New Triple D File

Thanks to TheProf for sending the first review of the Triple XXX Restaurant in West Lafayette IN

By us doing the review of the ones we visit the file will have another opinion besides the one from Guy Fieri the host of the show.

I don't know if this was on Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. I ate there in Woodbridge VA. 13440 Occaquan RD. It is a small b-b-q restaruant, but nice atmosphere and good food.

Sorry navycop but Dixie Bones has not been featured in the Triple D program, anyhow glad you liked the food.

Added three new locations to the Triple D Plus.csv

Nye's Polonaise Room in Minneapolis, MN
R&R Taqueria in Elkridge, MD
Moseberth's Fried Chicken in Portsmouth, VA

My wife loves triple d. This may be my first poi file for my nuvi. I have never tried installing one, so I'll check it out when I have time to really look at it. Looks like a great community here. Thanks for your hard work.

Welcome aboard! As you are a new user and member, I suggest you look through the FAQ section as it will answer a lot of questions. I also strongly suggest you do a backup of your unit before making changes. You only need to do a backup before any Garmin software updates, not every time you load custom POI.

As you have a 205, you'll need to follow the directions about locating the correct version of the sound exchange program SOX and how to load that so you can get alert sounds for your POI.

All in all, welcome aboard and don't be afraid to ask questions, we don't bite.

I concur with Box Car and don't hesitate to ask if you need help loading any file.

stopped in a Philadelphia diner couldn't figure out what was featured. We didn't feel it was worth driving to it. Glad you created a file with the featured meals, now we'll be looking for those items.

I don't see any reason you couldn't combine Triple D locations as one even if they were visited multiple times and having multiple featured items.

Actually there is only one location that was visited twice, The Bayway Diner in Linden NJ and has separate listings in the file because of the food that was prepared for each visit.

BTW I'm planning the next time we go to Philly to stop at The Dining Car & Market for some Chicken Croquettes

Thanks Box Car and flaco! I appreciate the advice and willingness to help. I'll be sure to ask if I run into any problems. I'm about to try loading something right now. Looking forward to trying it out tomorrow at work (I drive around all day long).

The file just uploaded has a new review by TheProf of The Zydeco's Restaurant in Mooresville, IN

New season of DDD starts showing next week.

http://www.poi-factory.com/node/35780

We have eaten in many of these restaurants and the only two places we were disappointed in was the first show from Wichita KS where the food was greasy and not kind to our stomachs and the Mad Greek Diner where it was just blah.
Otherwise we have not found others bad.

kurzemnieks that is precisely why I’m adding our own reviews so we can have an independent recommendations besides the show’s host.

You wrote of the places you have visited 2 were not of your liking but the others are not bad so why the Not Worth It title?

Triple D started the 2012 season with two new locations.

Pizzeria Lola
Minneapolis, MN

Monument Cafe
Georgetown, TX

At first I thought, "Wow. Stalkers are marking down where a set of Triple D's are located at now"? >.>

Then a guick Google helped me out abit.

Might this be of some help?
http://tripledfan.com/

I'm going there.

Any poi from the POI-Factory file has more information in one spot than this site has.

The TripleDFan.com is a good resource for a quick check by state if it's kept up-to-date.

The official FoodNetwork TripleD site used to list all of the visited diners and the number of `views' for each. You could also sort the diners by # of views, which was a convenient way to find newly listed/visited diners. I can't seem to locate that page anymore, can anyone help me out or is it no longer accessible?

Flaco,

this is an interesting idea. If I find some time I'll send you a few comments about some of the dozen or more DDD places my wife and I have gone to. Whenever we travel, one of the first things we do is search for DDD places in the area.

Overall we've enjoyed every place we've gone to. The only exception is Standard Diner in Albuquerque, NM. The food was OK, but we and our guests all agreed that we wouldn't recommend it and certainly wouldn't go back again. It is the only DDD place we've eaten at over the years that we won't give an unqualified recommendation to others to visit.

rocknicehunter I’m looking forward to your comment on the different places you have eaten, it will help others make an educated decision if it is worth stopping or not, just make the comments informative and concise as to why we should visit or not that particular restaurant, just send me an e-mail and I will add them to the file.

New file just uploaded has several new reviews by rocknicehunter that include:

Broadway Diner in Baltimore, MD
Standard Diner in Albuquerque, NM
Cecilia's Café in Albuquerque, NM
Roberto's Mexican Food in Phoenix, AZ
Haus Murphey's in Glendale, AZ
Hob Nob Hill in San Diego, CA
Hodad's in Ocean Beach, CA

Thanks rocknicehunter for sharing your reviews.

The file also includes three new locations from the series Streamlined Sammies, Episode DV1402H

The 1029 Bar in Minneapolis, MN
Luke's Inside Out in Austin, TX
Maple and Motor in Dallas,TX

You probably already know this, but Al's Breakfast is listed twice. Once referencing Episode DV1004 And again referencing Episode DV0112.

Yeap, same restaurant twice, different episodes, different food.

I'll probably have a couple more for you soon, and we're be on the road in a few weeks, so maybe some new ones too...

A comment on what you said above. On occasion we find that the dishes featured on DDD really are the best ones offered by the establishment. I may suggest that locations featured in more than one episode will not disappoint if you order anything from the menu. If you are only visiting the place once, stick with what Guy had and you shouldn't be disappointed.

Added two new locations from the show Crankin' Up the Classics, Episode DV1403H

Broders’ Pasta Bar in Minneapolis, MN
