Description:

A completely updated edition--with nearly 200 restaurants making their debut--of the classic guide from America's leading authorities on the culinary delights to be found while driving. (Newsweek)

First published in 1977, the original Roadfood quickly established Jane and Michael Stern. Now this indispensable guide is back, in an even bigger and better edition covering 500 of the country's best local eateries from Maine to California.

Unlike other travel guides, which usually try to cram restaurant reviews into a twenty-words-or-less format, Roadfood features thorough (and thoroughly entertaining) essays written in the Sterns' colorful style. Each entry delves into the folkways of a restaurant's locale as well as the dining experience itself. Full of enticing alternatives for chain-weary travelers, Roadfood provides directions to the best lobster shacks on the East Coast, the ultimate barbecue joints down South, the most indulgent steak houses in the Midwest, and dozens of top-notch diners, hotdog stands, ice-cream parlors, and uniquely regional finds in between.
