Fast Eddy's Restaurant & Pizza	Tok	AK	Virtually every rider coming into Alaska, or leaving via the Alaska Hwy, will stop here going and/or coming. Very good food, good service, decent prices (for Alaska), and right on the Alcan. If you like seafood, order the deep fried halibut, it's excellent. They have the best deep fried mushrooms I've ever tasted. Their sandwiches are huge, and delicious.	5		5	5	4	4	4	907-883-4411		Mile 1313.3 Alaska Hwy	99780	Alcan Rider

Benedikt's	Oneonta	AL	Benedikt's is located on County Hwy 27 on the mountain between Springville and Oneonta. Two german sisters own the restaurant. It is buffet style fresh home cooked food. All the vegetables are fresh and not from a can.They also have a great bakery. It is all you can eat and you serve yourself. When I mean serve yourself, you get everything yourself. Cash or check only. No debit or credit cards. About $10-12 per person. The outside appearance is not that great. This is just a hole in the wall type restaurant with great atmosphere.	4	Buffet/Cafeteria	3	5		3	3	205-274-0230	2benedikt.com	4125 Highway 27	35121
Big Bob Gibson's Original	Decatur	AL	This is the best Bar-B-Q in Northern Alabama!! Their people welcome you in with warm freindly smiles :-) I have eaten there alot over the last 20 years. I have found no B-Q place that can stand up to them. It's really good & if you give them a try you will prefer them to any other. They have chicken, turkey, beef, pork & there brunswick stew is out of this world!! So if are ever in the huntsville - decatur area & want some really good B-Q then this place is the one for you & your family :-) [Another reviewer adds:] Order anything BBQ... Great sauces to go with your order... This place has won many BBQ awards...	5	BBQ	3	4	4	4	4	256- 350-6969	www.bigbobgibson.com/main.htm	1715 6th Av. SE	35601

Traveling from I-10 you should ride on Newman road to airport for rolling hills and easy turns with few stops. North of Mobile try Tanner Williams to Hurley, MS for more hills and turns without stops.	5	Other (See Comments)	3	5	5	4	4	(251) 304-1155	jerusalem‑cafe.com	5773 Airport Boulevard	36608

Pete's Famous	Birmingham	AL	A hole-in-the-wall downtown hot dog shop that can feel as snug as an MRI machine, Pete's Famous has been dishing out cheap eats since 1920. We first learned about it thanks to a Roadfooder who goes by the handle "The Don." The Don described Pete's hot dogs as "the absolute best in the land, perfectly grilled every time, always on a fresh steamed bun." He said that Pete's hot dogs are "so good I have to hit myself in the head with a brick to stop eating them." We can relate. Pete's hot dogs are addictive. They are modest-sized crisp-grilled weenies, loaded into soft steamed buns, and almost always served "all the way" with onions, sauerkraut, and tangy-sweet sauce, as well as a shot of mustard. Pete's "special" supplements the mix with dark, beefy chili. Cheese adds a whole other level of taste to the combo and is highly recommended. Other than hot dogs and hamburgers, there is nothing on Pete's menu, not even French fries. If you need something on the side, bags of chips are available; and the beverages of choice are Coca-Cola and a curiously tangy grape-flavored bubbly bug juice known as Grapico. For dessert, choose from a selection of candy bars that includes Goo Goo Clusters. Expect to dine standing up. No credit cards accepted.	3	Dive	2	4	3	5	3	205-252-2905		1925 Second Ave. North	35203

Mickeys BBQ	Hot Springs	AR	This little "Hole-in-the-Wall" place is definitely worth stopping in. Right off of scenic Hwy 7, it holds some of the best BBQ we have ever eaten! The BBQ sausage is crisp on the outside, moist on the inside. Just perfect.The sandwiches are overflowing and big portions will more than fill your tummy for the trip to the Ozarks ahead. The people there are super friendly and the locals won't hesitate to chat with you while you're there. Just the mention of this place makes our mouths water and we instantly start pining for another trip to Mickey's.	5	BBQ	4	5	5	4	3	501-624-1247	www.mickeysbbq.net	1622 Park Avenue	71901	Gypsyangel & Bluelghtning
Ozark Cafe	Jasper	AR	Small Town Cafe on Steroids. The atmosphere is great, the food is great and inexpensive (try the Ozark Monte Christo), the service is enthusiastic and attentive, and unless you parachute in you can't get there without experiencing some of the finest riding in the country. I'm giving this 5 stars in every category without hesitation.	5	Cafe	5	5	5	5	5	(870) 446-2976	www.thefrontporchinn.net/ozarkcafe.htm	107 E Court Street	72641	Steve Jones

Roadhouse Restaurant	Eureka Springs	AR	It's a Biker themed restaurant. Exhaust pipes hang and the bar and all the menu items have clever bike style names like "The Shovel Head", The Road King" and "The Biker Betty". Of course there's plenty of Motorcycle Only parking right out front. They serve breakfast, lunch and dinner and all of it was so good, we went back the next day to have more. Cycle Gadgets is right up the road and the biker playground of the Ozarks is right outside the door.	5	Bar & Grill/Tavern	5	4	4	4	4	479-363-0001	theroadhouserestaurant.com	6837 Highway 62 W	72632	Gypsyangel & BlueLghtning

Cafe Poca Cosa	Tucson	AZ	Cafe Poca Cosa is great for an upscale Mexican dinner in Tucson. The chicken mole is very good and the carne asada is wonderful as well. Definitely consider ordering the Plato Poca Cosa for an assortment of yummy delights. Plan on spending about $25 a person for just the main entr�e and you'll definitely need to make reservations. However, for my money, Little Poca Cosa is even better (151 N Stone Ave). All the really great flavors for a lot less dinero in a more intimate atmosphere. They're only open for lunch, grab a menu and seat yourself and you have to have cash to pay.	5	Mexican		5	5	2	5	520-622-6400	www.cafepocacosatucson.com	110 E. Pennington St.	85701	raven

El Charro Cafe	Tucson	AZ	El Charro is one of Tucson's oldest Mexican restaurants and is definitely an institution. They have several locations but the original, downtown, is the one to go to. Carne Seca is the specialty and they have the drying cages on the roof. This is authentic and yummy. For desert, get the tres leches cake - yum! Most plates run less than $10 for dinner. The Carne Seca is just under $20 but well worth every penny.	5	Mexican		5	5	5	5	520-622-1922	www.elcharocafe.com	311 N. Court Ave.	85701	raven

El Torero	Tucson	AZ	Another Tucson Mexican food gem, El Torero is easy to miss tucked just off of south 4th Ave on 26th St. It definitely looks like a dive but it's worth wandering in.

KOFA Cafe	Salome	AZ	Just North of Highway 60 at Vicksburg RD, a cutoff to between I 10 and Highway 72. South eastern Arizona. When the big bodies inside a 100 mile circle get together to discuss where and when to eat, this restaurant always comes up. Great food, plenty of it, at a very good price. Not to mention the cleanest rest rooms in all of Arizona. Features a real old fashioned soda fountain and made on the premises pie. Darn near spectacular pie, and the special is safe and good. Is the only restaurant in Arizona where I will eat the Meatloaf special. It is exactly 100mi from my place to the KOFA. Perfect to sharpen my early morning apetite. Oh, the place is named for a famous area land mark. The King OF Arizona Mine, one of the richest gold mines in territorial Arizona. About 50 miles straight south. Edit: I forgot one important thing. When you buy OJ, they squeeze it right in front of you. Is no doubt fresh! And order the BIG ham breakfast only if you are a big eater!

I think it is the best Tacos in S. Calif for the $$ and they are tasty.	5	Mexican	4	5	5	5	5	2/4/2010		Victory Blvd & Troost Ave	91606	Bigequip

Evergreen Lodge Tavern	Groveland	CA	Located a half mile from the entrance of Yosemite National Park off 120 (directions at link). If you haven't ridden CA120, it's a top ten riding roads in the nation. The lodge is also surrounded by many offroad trails, if that is your thing. The food is Americana and well cooked. The Tavern is host to many events. The Hetch-Hetchy Dam is a very short hop from the Tavern. The Black&Blue Cheeseburger is my personal favorite. The prices are very reasonable. Note: If you are east of the park, the Tioga Pass is usually closed Nov-May and you'll have to go around. The Tioga Pass closure does not effect those coming from the west.	4	Bar & Grill/Tavern	5	4	4	5	4	(800) 935-6343	evergreenlodge.com/tavern.html	33160 Evergreen Road	95321

Nepenthe	Big Sur	CA	A great place to take a break along the magnificent Pacific Coast Highway. There will be quite a few tourists there, but don't let that put you off - you're in the wrong part of the world if you want to dodge tourists. When the weather is nice, it is a real treat to eat outside, especially if you can get a seat on the rail on the south and west side of the patio area. Spectacular views. The bartenders are real pros, in case your passenger wishes to imbibe - I hear the Mai Tai's and Bloody Mary's are memorable. Pricey, but the food is good and the location is amazing. Watch out for the bluejays, they'll steal your fries if you give them half a chance.	5		5	4	5	2	5	(831) 667-2345	www.nepenthebigsur.com	48510 Highway One	93920	Your humble servant

North Coast Brewing Co	Fort Bragg	CA	Good bike access;good food;great local brew. [another reviewer adds:] They brew several styles of Ales and Porters and serve them at the bar up front. All are good. The after-work regulars are mostly blue collar. Really, really blue collar which might put off some who expect a more touristy crowd but fear not as everyone is very friendly, especially the staff. They do a lot of seafood but I can only bear fish'n'chips and the Brewery's were very good. But the best part about the place is the ride there. [reviewer David Morrow adds: I would not describe the North Coast Brewing crowd in Fort Bragg as "really, really blue collar". It has a very nice pub and an even nicer restaurant.] [editor: I'd add that the nearby stretch of Hwy 1 between Leggett and the coast is the jewel in the crown of the PCH]	4	microbrew/food	5	4	4	3	4	(707) 964-3400	www.northcoastbrewing.com	455 N Main St	95437	HippieDave and Jeff N

The roads REAL close aren't great, but it is just off the Pacifc Coast Highway, and half an hour north or south will get you into some stellar riding.

Rickshaw Corner	San Diego	CA	I ate there last about 3 weeks ago. First thing I'd like to say is this is a family owned family run business. It has all the benefits and pitfalls associated with a business of this nature. I first started eating there in 1994 when I was active duty in the Navy and living in nearby Murphy Canyon. I was impressed with the food then. I've since moved 2000 miles away and back again returning in 2004. Was I surprised to see this little gem still in business. They have the best Mongolian Beef you will find in the San Diego County, I don't care at what cost. No one makes it like the chef in the back of this restaurant! Their vegetables are as fresh as they get, always cooked to perfection. I introduced a friend to this place and he and I eat there now about once a week. He totally fell in love with their Shrimp Tempura, he also loves their Rickshaw Roll, it's a combination of Tempura Shrimp, Avocado, Crab, Cream Cheese and Cucumber. I've found their Garlic Chicken to be especially tasty as well as their Lemon and Orange Chicken. As you can tell I'm a pretty big fan of a lot of their menu. The only thing that keeps this place from getting 5 stars is the simple fact that it doesn't provide atmosphere, it's small, the service is slow sometimes as the staff is pretty limited but once they get to know you, well the servers just light up when you walk in. Another issue is that the bathroom is out and around back of the place. Maybe not everyone's kind of place, but it sure is my kind of place. After all, it's all about the food!

The photo may look bland but the chicken pie is so much tastier than the frozen ones you've had in the past. The cole slaw is mighty fine, too. To finish the meal I opted for the chocolate pie and it was the old fashioned cooked pudding type that was bursting with plenty of chocolate flavor.

Squeeze Inn	Sacramento	CA	The Squeeze Inn is a Sacraemento landmark. They have been reviewed on the food channel and in numerous national magazines.

There is so much cheese that it flows down onto the griddle, forming a skirt, which is then served up on a fresh made bun. Glorious! [Also a location in Galt.

Or heck, clean your windshield with the water and squeegee left out front for that purpose. Some of the best Pass riding in California. Hwy 89/Monitor Pass leading over to Hwy 4/Ebbetts Pass is just to the North. A short jaunt south and you have Hwy 108/Sonora Pass. 30 miles or so south of Sonora Pass is Hwy 120/Tioga Pass into Yosemite. An embarrassment of riches. Living in Sacramento, I will often ride over for lunch...a great day trip. Rated Value as a 3 since the food is very good, but it is not cheap - transport costs and all to the isolated area.

Durango Diner	Durango	CO	The Durango Diner is a great place to start the day, and when I say start the day I mean have breakfast after leaving Colorado Springs!! That was a really expensive breakfast. In all seriousness this place has great food, lots of it, and a great atmosphere. I've been eating at the Double D since the mid-90's and have always had great service and an awesome meal. It's a very small place with one or two booths up front and a row of stools along the bar. It's always packed so be curtious and move along after finishing your meal. If you're into the mountain bike scene you may even get lucky and eat with a national or world champion.	5	Diner	5	5	5	5	5	970-247-9889	www.durangodiner.com	957 Main Avenue	81301	Dances_With_Trees

Located on the main drag through town - Highway 40 - it's on the way to Rocky Mountain National Park's west entrance. Many of you have ridden right past it.

King's Chef Diner	Colorado Springs	CO	With dish names like the Thing and the Grump how can a rider go wrong!! The King's Chef is also famous for their green chili and other spicy culinary delights. If you're real good you can become a member of the "Clean Plate Club" however, become too picky and you will be dubbed a princess and have to wear the tierra! Also remember, no matter how tempting, dudes don't eat lollipops!! The King's Chef actually has two locations in downtown COS however, the Castillo location is the original "King's Chef is a 13 seat custom Valentine Diner built in 1956. King's Chef is small and cozy with a vibrant energy. If the diner inside is full, King's Chef also has additional seating (weather permitting) on one of our two great patios for your dining enjoyment." As for riding what can I say other than Colorado Springs is the gateway to the Rockies. Hwy 24 west takes you to some great twisties north and south on Hwy 67. Hwy 115 southwest out of town takes you to US Hwy 50 and points west. If you're into the dirt scene it doesn't get much better than Colorado Springs as there's singletrack and gravel roads departing directly from town.	5	Diner	5	5	5	5	5	719-634-9135	www.kingschefdiner.com	110 E.

Sagebrush BBQ and Grill	Grand Lake	CO	Took some out of town friends for a tour of Peak to Peak and RMNP last weekend, at Sherob's recommendation we stopped at the Sagebrush BBQ and Grill in Grand Lake. It was DELICIOUS! Among our group we had the pulled pork platter, the pulled pork sandwich, a chicken sandwich, brisket platter, and the ribeye sandwich. There wasn't a single complaint, everything melted in your mouth (we passed everything around). Pros: * Food melted in your mouth * Portions were huge (you can split the platters between two people) * Atmosphere was fun! Throw your peanut shells on the floor * Right on the main street in Grand Lake * Easy to get to * Plenty of free parking * Did not have to wait for a table on Sunday at 5pm * Drinks are big, free refills (this is nice if you want to rehydrate or like soda/ice tea) Cons: * Service was miserable, obviously just some local kids trying to make a few bucks. I got up 3 times during the meal to get our waitress. * It's a bit pricey imo, but then again I'm a cheapskate. We will split platters next time we go to cut down on cost. Overall, I recommend you check it out!	4							(970) 627-1404		1101 Grand Avenue	80447	ST-Owners.com Restaurant Reviews

Turley's	Boulder	CO	Turley's is a great place to eat - doubly so if you're "not from around here" and are tired of eating fast (buck) food commonly found just off the interstate. They use fresh ingredients, and organic ingredients wherever they can get them, without being overly 'hippy' about it. Their website says: "The concept 'better for you naturally' providing healthier style eating, serving foods you�re familiar with. We do this by offering a widely varied selection from vegan to meat and potatoes, breakfast all day, a Mexican menu and an ever expanding gluten-free selection. Turley�s takes pride in presenting moderately priced food in an inviting atmosphere, with a focus on customer service and attention to detail." That's the thing that makes Turley's really stand out - they have great food - and if they didn't tell you (on the menu) that everything in the restaurant is 'all natural', you'd never know how good-FOR-you you're eating.	5		1	5	5	3	5	303.442.2800	www.turleysboulder.com	2805 Pearl St	80301
Two Candles	Norwood	CO	Great breakfast in a quaint shop yesterday, Norwood, Colorado (on CO-145 between Naturita and Placerville.) Just a convenient stop on our way to Cortez. Turned into a pleasant surprise with the mushroom and spinach Eggs Benedict. Cook Sara was delighted with the compliments. Inside is full of eclectic furniture, no two pieces matched; walls full of original art by the husband of the owner (also pictured, didn't get her name.) Sara is to the right, big smiles and jolly. Building looks like an old industrial complex but the inside is all 60s/70s hippy decor. Delightful place.	4											ST-Owners.com Restaurant Reviews

Pros: Atmosphere was great, this place * has been in continuous service for 35 years! * Definitely a local hangout, we listened in to some interesting conversations * Food was very tasty, more New Mexican than Mexican, reminded me of Albuquerque * Awesome menu, lots of authentic dishes. They use sopapillas in almost all their desserts. yum. * They make their own salsa, which is AWESOME * Portions are really big, we could've split our order and will in the future to save $ * The margs were tasty. If you have more than one person order the 1/2 liter. It's twice the cost of one marg and will result in just over 4 glasses full. * Nice beer selection, XX Amber on tap which is a winner for me * Service was fantastic and quick * Outdoor patio is really nice * Our server told us everything was made from scratch, and I believe her! * Easy to find (right on 72) and there is enough parking * View of the sunset was AWESOME Cons: * A bit pricey (I'm a cheapskate), you pay for the location, atmosphere and service for sure.

Alpine Steakhouse	Sarasota	FL	turducken while certainly unique is greatly overrated, the service was mediocre and the prices are high for this type of place. It is located in a busy shopping center in Sarasota so unless you like riding in traffic the ride to get there can be trying. Florida is known as a "flat land" kind of place anyhow and Sarasota though it has some unique places to visit is not located in an area where there are roads that are other than straight and flat so the advice is if you just have to try the "Turducken" then by all means do but be prepared for a ride that is less than inspiring and I am willing to bet it will be your only visit.	2		1	2	2	2	3	(941) 922-3797	www.alpinesteak.com	4520 S.

Sugar Mill	De Leon Springs	FL	I've been to the Mill quite a few times, during Bike Week or soon after. It really is an old mill which I believe still functions. Beautiful setting, surrounded by woods and the De Leon Springs where you can swimm too, if that takes your fancy? Outstanding Brekky! Each table is built around a griddle and you do your own pancake/egg/ meat thing. A couple of different pancake batters, whatever fruits you decide you want to add and REAL Maple Syrup can be had! Wouldn't visit the area without stopping in. Ride ain't outstanding but after an Ontario Winter just about anything is stellar...Take your Dual Sport bike and go ride in the Ocala Forest afterward...just to burn off the high octane hit you've just taken...	5	Other (See Comments)	2	5	4			386-985-5644		601 Ponce Deleon Boulevard	32130	SteverinoB

The BeachHouse Restaurant	Bradenton Beach	FL	Had a terrific ride today doing back roads east of Tampa Bay down to Bradenton Beach and then running up through St. Pete and back to Tampa. Low 70's, overcast (no glare) light traffic,...great, great ride, about 150 miles total. Had one of the best lunches ever at The Beach House on Bradenton Beach...and learned a wonderful secret. I ordered the Mahi, 'cause I love Mahi, and the waiter advised that if it's the flavor of the fish I wanted rather than the sauce or crust treatments with the fish, to order it grilled. Most tourists order their fish blackened, encrusted in pepper. If you order it grilled, there are small amounts of the pepper and spice on the grill left behind from the tourist's blackened fish, that REALLY enhance the flavor of your fish without overwhelming it in spices. Absolutely, totally, one of the BEST knock your socks off fish entrees I've ever had.	4							(941) 779-2222	www.beachhouse‑restaurant.com		34217	ST-Owners.com Restaurant Reviews

Dillard House	Dillard	GA	Family style restaurant where they sit you at a big table and just start bringing out dishes of food. You get to pass the dishes around the table and feel free take a healthy portion, they'll bring more. It feels more like you're sitting at Thanksgiving dinner than at a restaurant. Great "Southern" style family food usually with atleast 3 different meat dishes and some of the largest, most delicious Lima beans I've ever had. The best part - you get to take home the left - overs.Deffinately stop by next time you're on your way to or from riding in nearby Highlands, N.C. [Big Jim Davis, Floral City, Fl adds:] The food here is to die for! I have visited here several times and stayed in the accommodations here, the rooms are clean, spacious and reasonably priced, they also have some cabins and if you have a group there is a house that will sleep 10 people for very reasonable prices. The country home style food is served family style and they just keep bringing more of anything you want including fabulous deserts. This is not a place for dieters but if you are in the mood for a big family meal there is none better! Being in NE Ga the roads and the scenery surrounding Dillard is great, a group of us spent a week here in the lodgings and rode a different direction each day, it was a great week and I would go back again cause we did not in any way see all the scenery.	5	Family Style	4	5	4	2	5	706-746-5348	www.dillardhouse.com	768 Franklin Street	30537	Gypsyangel & BlueLghtning and Big Jim Davis, Floral City, Fl

Food For the Soul	Athens	GA	If you are ever in the NE Georgia and can stop in Monday thru Friday for lunch, Food for the Soul is the place to be if you want what southerners have been eating for years. I have taken 5 friends to this little hole in the wall restaurant and all have come out saying that has to be the best fried chicken or pork chop they have ever had. Fridays are seafood day with fried catfish, flounder, coconut shrimp, and of course fried chicken. Also the fixin's that go on the side are out of this world. Green Beans, Cream Corn, Collard Greens, Mustard Greens, Spinach, Black Eyed Peas, Lima Beans, Fried Okra, Squash Casserole, Corn Bread, Yeast Roles, and Cobbler or Chocolate Cake. I may have missed a few things but you get the point. If you are watchin your weight or cholesterol then maybe this isn't for you but for me it's a once a month Splurge from the everyday diet....

Fresh Air Barbecue	Jackson	GA	This is an "Authentic" BBQ place, in business since 1929. family owned. Just south of downtown Jackson on GA highway 42. some would say that the BBQ is similar to North Carolina style, the sauce they make is Vinegar based. They serve chipped BBQ pork only. No hotdogs, burgers, Chicken, fries, ETC. they DO serve Stew and Slaw and pickles. you get good ole white bread to go with the plates. only drawbacks are: Gravel parking lot, and they serve that semi-awful fountain drink style Tea. Most BBQ places serve great iced Tea, but I can overlook these two items. VERY motorcycle friendly establishment, Bikers have been welcome here for years. go on Sunday and you will rub elbows with most all aspects of society: Poor, Rich, Black, White, Buisnessmen, Farmers, ETC.	5	BBQ	3	5	4	4	3	770.775.3182	freshairbarbecue.com	1164 Highway 42 South	30216	Potlikker, Covington, GA

City Limits Family Restaurant	Maquoketa	IA	We were greeted outside by a large chef. He had on the right 'chef' pants, a bushy mustache, a gold tooth and a foreign accent. This guy was as warm and hospitable as they come. He indicated that he had been a chef in Chicago for some years previously. We discovered later that his family inside the restaurant was equally fun. They were all attentive to us, and provided great service. They asked about our ride and about the STs. They simply enjoyed having us as guests. The building and the interior are neat, but not impressive. It's low key, but comfortable. The food, though, was outstanding. We paid less than $10 for each of our entrees. Daggy and I ordered BBQ ribs, while Rich ordered a chicken meal. The portions were huge. No understatement. Not to mention the ribs were so well done, that I could've pulled 'em off the bone through a straw. The sauce was subtle - not tangy or spicy, but just right. The chef/owner informed us that they set up a Saturday night buffet, and that he could house lots of people for an RTE.... Please stop by this place if you're starving. It was a great, but simple, dining adventure. Once you're full, head north towards Minnesota on SR52.

This is great day trip ride from any where with in a 75-100 mile or so radius. Hardin is in Calhoun county with beautiful scenic roads along the Illinois River bluffs. Also, from Harding go south to Brussels, take the Brussels ferry over to the Great River road, go down through Grafton (lots of police enforcement so watch yourself) and on down to Alton. Wonderful ride - we do it 3 or 4 times a summer. [Note: Map location approximate. Don't confuse this with the "Loading Dock" in nearby Grafton, another popular destination.

Krekel's	Springfield	IL	I go here for two things when I am in the area. Burgers and lemon custard. The burgers are smashed very flat, the onions are tasty. Perfect Illinois burgers. The lemon custard (soft serve, think DQ but lemon) is perfect for a 100 degree day after the Springfield Mile! The old Caddy with the chicken on top is always a good photo op.	5	Diner	3	5	4	4	4	217-525-4952		2121 N Grand Ave East	62702	FlatTrackFan
Kutters Bar & Grill	Quincy	IL	My make it or break it meal is a burger with or without cheese and bacon. Order the Kutter burger, it bumped the burger from O'Connells in St. Louis out of first place. They make their own homemade potato chips, get these also.	5	Bar & Grill	3	5	5	3	4	217-223-5888	kutters.net	236 North Front Street	62301	Andy
Lonzorotti's	Jacksonville	IL	Another place we eat when going to the Springfield Mile. It is in the old GM&O RR Station, and the food rivals Italian in Chicago. A little more expensive, but very classy yet friendly place to chowdown on some good Italian fare. The ride from Springfield to Jacksonville on the Old State Road (called Jacksonville Road in Springfield) is one of the nicest in Central Illinois. No Dragon, but there are curves and elevation changes!	5	Italian	4	5	5	3	4	217-243-7151	www.lonzerottis.biz	600 East State	62650	FlatTrackFan

Moonshine Store	Martinsville	IL	AUTHOR1: No trip to Illinois would be complete without one of those famous Moon Burgers. Out in the middle of no-where, just follow the bikers. Most everyone I met that lives down there is real friendly and I am sure they would be happy to show you the way should you become lost. I have seen cutoffs t's & flipflops, 3 piece suits, as well as full leather dressed enter the store. Go to the back, place your order and wander around inside while you wait for your food. Every time I have been there it was Standing Room Only inside. While the Moon Burgers are second to none, I am a pork fan and end up with a Pork Burger. Pik-Nik tables outside-NO ALCOHOL-and closed Sunday. AUTHOR2: Famous for Moonburgers but,,, impossible to tell ya why you have to come here - until you actually go... How can 500 bikers from 39 States and Canada who show up here in early April in bad weather be wrong!!! You come to Moonshine for a Moonburger- but you take home so much more!!! AUTHOR3: Oil wood floors. Get your own drink and chips. Old time general grocery store w/ small grill in back. You'll never forget it. Must be there before 1pm to get food. [Note: see http://moonshine-run.com for info on the annual April Moonshine Lunch Run]	5	Other (See Comments)	4	5	5	5	3	(618) 569-9200	www.themoonshinestore.com	6017 East 300th RD	62442	John Archer & Terry Hammond aka Austin city limits Charles960

It is a GREAT hot dog stand, that also serves very good Italian Beef, Sausage, Burgers and Greasy Foods.

Texan BBQ	Algonquin	IL	It's been a while since I've been in Algonquin, but the Texan BBQ is the BEST! Their baby back ribs are outstanding - the type where you pull on the bone and the meat falls off. The Cowboy Beef sandwich is my favorite if not in the mood for ribs.[Note: Their website only mentions the Algonquin location, but it has a photo of and directions to another restaurant of the same name in Lombard.

For Saturday and Sunday brunch, there's French toast, banana-buckwheat pancakes, corned beef hash and the Road Rash Mary--a hot, spicy bloody mary accompanied by a beer chaser.

Cozy Inn	Salina	KS	This story is literally moldy. I started working at Cozy Inn when I was 14. I had a Journal paper route and carried Bob Kinkels paper. He put me to work peeling and grinding onions and slicking pickles before I went to school. Got paid 45� an hour. Be there at 6 am. Took couple of hours and always a handful of bubble gum. Mr. Kinkel got me a permit from the City to walk in a place that sold beer after I was 16. I joined the Marines in 1943. Was sent overseas just before Christmas and I received a Christmas package while on Guadalcanal in February 1944. It had a very unique smell. It was a Cozy hamburgers with onions, pickles, catsup, mustard, some bubble gum and covered in mold. I kept it in my tent for a week or so just to look at and admire. Soon my Sergeant made me bury it out in the jungle. With the help of some Marine buddies we gave it a proper burial. Was like loosing a good friend and a little bit of Salina. That being said, it's a damn good slider, and one of the originals. Order a half dozen for a good snack.

Service was slow, and it was Labor Day weekend, butt I'm planning to return from their famous Crab Cake Dinner in summer 2010! [Another reviewer adds:] Had lunch there one day as it is near my daughter's house, stay away from the Cream of Crab soup unless you really like Old Bay. It also was very thick, Had the steamed crabs and they were very good. Since it was summer I opted to eat outside on the covered deck, this is a small and cozy place situated on Stoney Creek.	5	Seafood	1	4	4	3	4	(410) 439-3123	www.stoneycreekinnrestaurant.com	8238 Ft Smallwood Road	21226	Dale Ty

Maine Diner	Wells	ME	I've eaten here a few times as I've passed through the Ogunquit/Wells area. I find the place to be down home comfy and clean with friendly waitstaff. Food is good. I highly recommend the seafood here, it's always fresh. Meals are decent portions and prices are fair. Not sure if the atmosphere here lends itself to a big gathering of bikers, lots of families and kids - but a few sport tourers would blend right in. For those with female pillion passengers that like shopping, the diner has a gift shop next door in case you'd like to have an authentic Maine Diner T-shirt or lighthouse mug. A bit further south on rte 1 treats you to nice views of the ocean and the Cape Neddick Lighthouse (The Nubble) is not far.	5	Diner	4	5	4			207-646-4441

Trenton Bridge Lobster Pound	Trenton	ME	I first tried this place about 30 years ago. The lobster is consistantly good, and so are the prices. I stop there every time I am in Maine, sometimes for 2 meals a day. The parking lot is gravel, but usually hard packed. It is nothing fancy. You order your lobster(s), get a number, then sit at picnic tables to eat out of metal trays. It is just across the causeway from Mt. Desert Island (Acadia NP). If coming from the mainland it is on the right, just before the causeway.	5	Diner, Drive-in or Dive	5	5	4	4	4	207-667-2977	www.trentonbridgelobster.com	1237 Bar Harbor Road	46050	FlatTrackFan

Lambert's Cafe: Home of Throwed Rolls	Ozark	MO	Just off Highway 65 south of Springfield, MO on the way to Branson. There are only 3 Lamberts in the country and they are all amazing. [Note: The other two are in Sikeston MO and Foley AL] The Food Channel ranked Lambert's the #1 place to pig out in the United States. Most meals are from $9-$14. I especially like the Chicken Fried Steak. There are attendants who are continually bringing around free side orders like: fried potatoes with onion; fried zuccini; blackeyed peas;etc. The place is famous for the hot "throwed rolls" that the waiters bring out about every 5 minutes. If you want one, just wave and the waiter will throw it to you from across the room. It's a hoot. Oh, and did I mention that every order is all you can eat. If you want 5 pork chops, they will bring you 5 and ask if you want another when you are done. I usually fast and hit the gym the day before I go, just to get ready. I go about 2-3 times a year. The up side is great riding in the Ozarks. The down side is, you usually have to wait up to an hour to get into the place.	4							(417) 581-7655	www.throwedrolls.com	1800 W.

Pappy's Smoke House	St. Louis	MO	This is BBQ the quality that competition judges get. Best I've ever had. Ribs, Pulled Pork and Brisket are fantastic. And the frito chili pie is strangely addictive. The deep-fried corn on the cob has a religious following, but I'd call it an acquired taste. Dining area very basic but clean and comfortable. Sadly, no beer. I rated the service in the context of this type of restaurant - you order at a counter, give your name and they bring it to you at your table. Once you order it is FAST. The wait in line is often quite long for lunch on a business day, but usually an employee will ease the pain by walking up and down the line offering you a free sample rib. If coming in the evening, call first ... they close when they run out of food, which sometimes happens in the early evening. They never ever save meat overnight and reheat... it's all cooked that day - one of the big secrets to great 'Q and a VERY rare practice at restaurants. While you're there why not visit the Moto Museum (http://themotomuseum.com) a few blocks away at 3441 Olive Blvd?

B's Barbeque	Greenville	NC	B's BBQ in Greenville is the best BBQ you will ever eat. When I'm in Eastern, NC I'll ride 75 miles out of my way to eat there. The resaurant is not big on ambience, nothing fancy, don't expect too many amenities, From the outside the place looks like a dump but it's clean. But don't let the looks stop you from enjoying the best Eastern NC BBQ money can buy! It's located behind Pitt Memorial Hospital at the end of Bs BBQ Road. You can't miss it because you'll see cars paked beside the road and peple walking up to the restaurant before you get there. The pigs are cooked outside in a REAL BBQ pit so you'll smell it long before you get there. Expect to stand in line, the service is prompt there's just that many people show up at lunchtime. The workers are friendly but very busy. They have a combo platter BBQ and Chicken for around $7.00, unless you're hungry or have a HUGE appetite you will not finish it. I recommend buying either the BBQ or Chicken Platter. If I'm with my wife I uy the combo platter and share, I eat the pig, she eats the chicken, both delicious and melt in your mouth. The meal is served with for want of a better name I'll call them fried cornbread sticks which are very delicous. The food is prepared fresh, nothing is made in advance and frozen or refrigerated, it comes off the pit straight to your plate. The only drawback on this is that when the pigs and chickens are gone for the day, there's no more. On Saturdays B's BBQ is only open when the ECU Pirates have a home game, you have to get their early because it goes quick for the tailgaters. If the Pirates aren't playing, they're closed on Saturdays. You may find fancier BBQ restaurants, but I'll wger you'll find none better.	5	BBQ	3	5	5	5	3			751 B's Barbeque Rd	27834

Lexington Barbecue	Lexington	NC	I had to try this mighty fine BBQ outfit on the south-west side of Lexington, NC yesterday. Highly recommended. Chopped kind. Lexington, NC is the BBQ capital anyways... Tor [Another reviewer adds:] The shining example of Southern pork, hickory smoked pork bbq. The location is ok, tricky driveway for some riders. The smoke will entice you from the highway. The service is fast, the waitresses and owners are friendly, the pork is fabulous regardless how you like it. The will slice, cube or chop it. You can get it with or without "bark." The coleslaw is wonderful! The hushpuppies are great. I am drooling just writing about it!!! Unfortunately, like many of the current bbq places, the prices are kinda high for "peasant food." It seems like bbq places have to charge upscale prices now, for some reason. :-( Kendal Johnson's chopper shop is not too far away and makes for a good ride stop. [RDY2GO! adds:] I'm a long time Lexington resident and have eaten at every BBQ place in town many times. We call this place the "Honey Monk" and to be honest I don't know the origin of the nick name. When compared to the other local joints it's not bad and rates in my top three.

Barney use to go there for a pork chop sandwich. The main grill is located right in front of the window and you can tell it's cooked plenty of pork. Other than their world famous pork chop sandwiches their breakfast is pretty good too. [Jim Bain adds:] Snappy Lunch is one of my "Must Stop" places when I am in the area. In addition to the Pork Chop Sandwich, the Breaded Hamburger (or cheeseburger) is worth the trip as well.

Joshua's Grille	Lancaster	NH	My wife and I were on holiday in the NE last week (2-10 October, 2009), and travelled Route 2 from Burlington Vermont to Bangor Maine. We were leaf-peeping. Just after crossing the VT/NH state line eastbound, we saw Joshua's Grill on the right. As it was 2pm, and we were hungry, we thought we'd give it a go. The parking lot was quite full, and as Lancaster isn't exactly tourist-central, we assumed that the vehicles belonged to locals, always a good sign. After getting inside, we were greeted and seated. The decor was very cozy and homey, complete with a roaring fire in the very large stone fireplace. We were seated at a very nicely prepped table, complete with cloth table-cover, and cloth napkins. Very nice silverware and glassware. Sounds weird, but impressive if you think about where you might usually dine. Or at least the places I usually dine .... The dining room was sub-divided into five smaller seating areas, offering a very intimate meal experience. The sound-level was as could be expected in a full establishment, but not "sports-bar" loud. Very comfortable. My wife and I both had the Lobster Bisque (they were out of the NE Clam Chowder ), but that's OK; the bisque was phenomenal. Very large pieces of Maine lobster swimming in some of the best soup/broth I've had in a very long time. I ordered the fish & chips, my wife had pork tenderloin. Friends, if either of these dishes were/are representative of the balance of the menu, then I humbly suggest trying more of anything that catches your eye. The menu offered seafood, chicken, pork, and beef, light lunch fare (sandwiches), to full-blown dinner entree's. Both of our meals were absolutely incredible. As we were there just a half-hour before closing, I was not able to speak with the chef. He'd left after our meals were completed. He was off on break before they re-opened for dinner. I'm born & raised in MA, but keep forgetting the most of the country has a different schedule that 24-hours-a-day,-7-days-a-week-Florida. So please check the website listed above, and call before you plan on going to be sure that they'll be open .....I'll leave you with this: Joshua's Grill is truly a gem hidden in the beautiful New Hampshire surroundings. If you are in that area, please take the time to enjoy a fantastic meal. You'll be glad you did ....	4							(603) 788-3939		39 Portland Street		ST-Owners.com Restaurant Reviews

Four Kegs Sports Pub	Las Vegas	NV	Very good food. The stromboli is great, and the cajun wings are awesome. The place is oddly laid out, and the service is really hit or miss. We've been there quite a few times. Usually the wait time is acceptable, but not great. One time we waited over an hour before someone came to take our order. We were getting up to leave when they finally came over to serve us. Management apologized and made sure we were served promptly, but it left a bad impression on us and we haven't been back since. The place is also in a sketchy part of town.	3	Dive	2	5	2	3	2	(702) 870-0255	www.fourkegs.com	267 N. Jones Blvd	89107
