Have you ever heard of a good sandwich/burger joint inside of a drug store? I know it's weird. If I didn't see it for myself, I would never thought that would work!

We went to the Homestead Dog Park in Chapel Hill, NC for the first time this month when we were visiting and we were not impressed. We only saw one other dog there and the place was really muddy with a lot of rules. See the sign below for the rules.

Golden Corral instead of Hometown Buffet in North Carolina

They have a nice salad bar, bbq section, chocolate fountain in the dessert section and also a Chinese section. It was unbelievable!
