Posted August 25th, 2010 in Restaurants
It’s happened to everyone at least once: Someone takes a picture right as you sink your teeth into something messy, something with resolve and fight. It happened to my husband when we stopped in to try The Junkyard Dog, in southeast Tulsa just north of 61st and Mingo.
