Like I have said before I love food, and I believe travel enhances that love. I know there are some people that will drive two hours just to get a White Castle burger, and while I have never been that type of person I can admire the devotion of said travelers. Cuisine travel is becoming a hot market for tour companies with people traveling to Italy where they learn to toss pizza dough or taking pastry classes on big name cruise ships. People love food and good stories and when you put the two together by traveling you have a winning combination.

Honestly, I don't think I have ever had a trip based solely on food, and that makes me a little sad. I think the problem is that around here I don't have any sure fire favorites that are attainable by a short road trip. However there are those restaurants that I have to visit when I travel to particular destinations. Namely In-N-Out Burger. When I go to the West Coast I have to eat there at least once. I would drive two hours to eat there.

I want to hear your stories about food. The fantastic trips you have taken to get to the food you love and/or the restaurants you absolutely must eat at while traveling.
