Roadtrip/Roadfood Periodicals
Tue, 06/17/03 12:32 PM
( permalink)
I received my latest copy of COUNTRY DISCOVERIES today in the mail. It is a slick-paper magazine that is filled with roadtrip reports and photo's. It follows the same pattern as the AAA publications, but contains a lot more 'amatuer' writing and photo work. I find the reviews fairly accurate and consider it a valuable addition to my trip planning documents. If you are interested in other folks roadtrip experiences check out the website for the publisher at--- [url]www.countrydiscoveries.com[/url] Just another resource for the foodie on the road!!

I used to subscribe to that, but I let it lapse about a year ago. It's a great one. Thanks for the reminder, Mr. Mayor; I'll re-up today. Almost forgot to mention another favorite of mine, Texas Highways. http://www.texashighways.com/

Al, I really like that type of magazine. I am an explorer at heart. I have driven in all 50 states and in fact I keep a map and I highlight each road I drive. I try to drive a different road each time I travel. I also mark neat stops, sights and of course restaurants along the way.
It appears this magazine highlights unusual and neatg places.
I will subscribe and thanks for the tip.

Almost forgot to mention another favorite of mine, Texas Highways. http://www.texashighways.com/ I LOVE state magazines. Of course the premier one that everyone knows is Arizona Highways, but two of the states I've inhabited have excellent choices as well: Wisconsin Trails and Vermont Life. The WI magazine is probably closer in spirit to what we're looking for on this website, but both are quality publications without a lot of "filler" to my mind.

Thought I'd resurrect this old thread in the hopes someone might find the links of interest and perhaps add some. Frankly, I have none to add myself. As a rule I'll find my own roadfood places either by driving by them or asking a local where to go. I do find the suggestions here to be valuable as well.

Blue Ridge is an excellent magazine for the Appalachian areas.

Knoxville has the Metro Pulse which is a weekly newspaper regarding the arts, unusual establishments and neat restaurants. I think most cities have a similar publication. I find these free newspapers very informative.

I like National Geographic Traveller which frequently has articles about drives and great place to eat.

One of our local TV stations has a program on the 6 o'clock news entitled Tennessee Traveler that highlights out of the way places to see and places to eat.
