A more authentic, thoughtful, and substantial answer to Guy Fieri's Diners, Drive-Ins, and Dives, this book appeals to fans of Jane and Michael Stern (Roadfood) and Food Network shows like The Best Thing I Ever Ate, Food Finds, and Road Tasted.
Celebrating 100 all-American classic homegrown restaurants from across the country — each a place of pilgrimage for serious food-lovers and tourists alike — this book brings together more than 100 recipes for comfort food as well as heartwarming stories behind these places, each of which is an anchor of the local community.
