We're diving back into Joe's Hole!

• Comedian Mike Perkins is back once again to represent Italy in the case against the food at Buca di Beppo
• Michael & Mike are just a couple of Midfellas
• The breadiest love-making session ever is What's Going On Over There
• Buca di Beppo's decor is funny how?
• The portions at Buca are insane, as two men individually order a family style entree each
• The dessert is "diabetes in a glass" according to the boys' server
• Chip psychoanalyzes the characters on the Buca di Beppo kids menu in this week's Munchkin Menu Musings!
• Mike's Instagram handle is taken to task

Next week on "Fine" Dining: Hot Dog on a Stick (Eat Deets)! I'll be joined by the Restaurant Fiction podcast's host Monis Rose.
