\r\n\r\nThis is a listing of notable restaurants and food establishments I've enjoyed in various cities across the United States and Canada. These were found during my various road trips, and represent \r\nwhere I had a good personal experience with the food and\/or service. In a sense, this is a list of recommendations and placed I would revisit, though it should be noted that individual experiences can vary across different time periods. \r\n\r\n

\r\n\r\nBecause things can and do change, I am including the date(s) that I was at each establishment in question. I encourage anyone viewing this to check recent reviews before going. Unfortunately, some of these are no longer in business, and those will be listed in red as this list is updated.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
