Happy Labor Day!

A special shoutout to the cooks, servers, bartenders, dishwashers, managers, drive-thru crews and everyone else in the restaurant world putting in the work today.

You’re the reason the rest of us get to sit down, order something good and enjoy the day.

So if you’re eating out today, enjoy the food, take care of the people taking care of you.

Happy Labor Day from The Reluctant Foodie.

I was invited out to Squat N Gobble in Bluffton, and this one gave me a chance to try a couple of things I don’t normally order.

First up — a gyro. Then a Sloppy Joe.
And somehow, we finished things off with a cinnamon roll. 😂

Three very different things, one visit, and definitely a few surprises along the way.

Thanks to Squat ’n’ Gobble for inviting me in and letting me give it all a try!

Round Two at Okinawa Sushi… and THIS is a sushi burger. 🍣🍔

Yes. A burger. Made with sushi.

After making my way through the Emerald Roll, Tiger Roll and Koticho in Round One, they weren't finished with me yet.

The Sushi Burger was next — and I had absolutely no idea what to expect.

Would you try this??

I came. I tried. I have questions.
