Hand and Foot in Corning, NY - A very different, interesting menu (no burgers) with beers from craft brewers from around the country.

Geo’s Italian restaurant located 1block north of 466 on 301. Only open for dinner on Thursday Friday and Saturday, open for lunch Monday thru Saturday. Old time Italian deli and deserts sold behind the counter. Good Sicilian style pizza. (You have to ask for the Sicilian style). Great lunch menu with great prices. Their meatballs and Marinara sauce are very good.

Frank Pepe's Pizza - New Haven Ct. Possibly the best pizza you'll ever have.

Ted's Restaurant - Meriden Ct. Get the steamed cheeseburgers and thank me later.

Patty' Pantry- Dorchester Ma. A take out counter in the back on a C-store. Lot of food for the price my go to's are the steak tips or the meatloaf.

Sullivan's - Castle Island, Boston Ma. A seasonal take out stand where you might just have to wait in line a bit.

Since you will be in Cape May, NJ, try Charlie's Restaurant and Bar in Somers Point, NJ. It's up the Parkway, first exit after the Great Egg Harbor Bridge. You may also try The Anchorage and Gregory's. All three places make up the "Beer-muda Triangle" in Somers Point.

Charlie's is known for its wings and can get crowded on the weekends.

Since that poster has been absent for many months, maybe their health got in the way of life, or something worse. I could never wish Ill will on a poster even if I thought they were a little out there

Thanks for everyone's contribution. We haven't mapped out our route yet, but when we do, I will definitely visit those restaurants, on-line first, to see if we can make any of them.

Chophouse 47 Greenville SC
Grubstake Hamilton Montana


The Grubstake is definitely worth a major detour to experience it. It's 4 miles of gravel switchbacks to get to it but the view is spectacular looking over the Bitterroot Valley from 5500 ft.

La Roca Restaurant

We went here in the 1970s a few times. Thought it was fun. Place is in a cave in Nogales, Mexico.

The Basque restaurants in Reno, Nevada are also a unique experience. Louis Basque Corner | Home of the World Famous Picon Punch

My first real job was a dishwasher at the Rapscallion Restaurant in Reno, Nevada when I was 18 or 19 or so. This is still going very strong after 40+ years.
