You really need to travel more!

When you fly to Nashville just to get a good BBQ sandwich we'll talk. ;)




I am a Sagittarius, I was bit by the travel bug from birth and I can never get enough...however I prefer roadtrips and boat trips over flying anytime!

Though I've not traveled to Nashville for a BBQ sandwhich, I have made the trip to Knoxville for a BBQ rib dinner at Calhoun's On The River, better than Carson's and I love Carson's.

I've also driven 15 hours to the Northern Highland's of Wisconsin for the world's best taco pizza and glass of 'real' beer... and then 5 hours out of the way back home to stop for the best smoked fish and jerky I've ever come across in my life!

Again, I've always been lucky with Taco Real... I guess it helps to mention that you're writing a review about your experience when placing your order...just kiddin'...I guess it's because I'm a lucky girl!

So hey, let's talk about the places we've eaten at outside of the region, in a new thread... I'll go start one up :D


So, if you're ever in passing through Texas... you must stop in Lubbock for dinner :D

Not too far of a drive...and well worth it :D

I highly recommend my favorite, the Roast Long Island Duck here at Hannah's in New Buffalo, Michigan...

One of the best, and certainly the most interesting restaurant in Knoxville is Ye Olde Steak House. Where else can you go for a great steak, and have your waitress greet you by saying "Hi, I'm Betty Sue, and I'll be your wench for the evening."!!!

For BBQ, the best I've ever had was at Cowboy's in Muskogee, Oklahoma.

Why not take a trip to Springfield, IL, to the corner of Pasfield and Jefferson for some MAID-RITE's? You will be able to get some of those DELICIOUS loose meat burgers, and you will be visiting a National Historic Place, the home of America's first fast food drive-thru.

If you find yourself in sunny Phoenix this winter, ya gotta have a night out for pizza and wings at Pullano's...

...if your stay is a long one, have it again, but this time order out from Angie & Jimmy's.

Make sure you stop in for a game of pool and say hello to my friends at Skip & Jan's...I miss these two Hoosiers.

But you can't leave until you've experienced Rawhide...just try and not get arrested, like my dad did :lol:

There are just too many places for me to remember...all I know is the Phoenix area has some of the best food in the west!

Well if you happen to be in St. Petersburg, FL on your birthday I highly recomment http://www.texascattlecompany.net/ because you eat free! All you pay is sales tax and a 20% tip, but it's still a bargain!
