Travel Channel seeking Ju(i)cy Lucy lovers
Are you a Matt's Bar Jucy Lucy type or do you prefer your Jucy to come with an "i," from the 5-8 Club ? Like 'em both? It's time to pick sides. The Travel Channel wants to know. The network's coming to town next week to film an episode for its new "Food Wars" show slated to debut next month.

They'll be filming Mon., Feb. 8 at the 5-8 and Tues., Feb. 9 at Matt's throughout the day. Then, on Wed., Feb. 10, there will be a cook-off between the two at the Cardinal Tavern at 5 p.m. (taping starts at 3:30). The channel's seeking superfans of the burgers to chat up at all three events.
"Food Wars" pits two variations of a regional specialty against one another. In addition to Ju(i)cy Lucys, the show will compare Italian beef in Chicago, buffalo wings in Buffalo, and barbecue in Texas, among others.
The show premieres Tues., March 9. Here's a little more about it, including a sneak peek.
