I mentioned over the weekend we were hitting a prominent barbeque. This was Dinosaur Barbeque, as they have opened a new branch in Troy, so we visited there after heading upstate to visit my brother WalterEgo. Years ago MrsBlue and I talked about heading up to their original location in Syracuse before they opened their Harlem spot, but we never made it. As it turns out the place was nice and the service was excellent, but while the food was very good, it did not live up to our elevated expectations based on the awards the place has earned. We decided it was worth the half-hour drive from Albany, but would not have been worth the several hours it would have taken us to get to Syracuse, though of course we can't be sure the food would be the same at the two locations.
