1. Mrs Wilkes' Dining Room
If food is anywhere near as good as this in heaven, may I be struck down this very second!
I was on a cross country road trip with a friend and we initially had plans on going to Paula Deen's restaurant but thanks to fellow Yelpers, we were steered…More »
2. Earnestine & Hazel's Bar & Grill
I must have been a hooker in a past life or something because it's uncanny how "at home" I felt here at Earnestine & Hazel's.
The friend and I stumbled upon this gem (thanks to Yelp!) while on a US roadtrip. We walked in cold and thirsty on a…More »
3. The Art of Pizza
Chicago, IL 60657
(773) 327-5600
*Reunited and it feels so gooood*
Yup, totally hit that on my US roadtrip and it was just as damn good as I remember. Chicago sure knows how to stuff a pie.

I visited friends in Chicago back in 2005 and they ordered a pizza from this place. Sooooo good that… Read more »

Categories:
Breakfast & Brunch,
American (Traditional)
The friend and I came here after the guy at the Hertz counter recommended it highly. Turns out that his girlfriend works here but hey, this man knows good food! I ordered the eggs benedict w/fried green tomatoes and my friend ordered the corned beef…More »

Neighbourhood: Downtown
I absolutely LOVE this place!
I was staying at the local hostel (check out my review for Northwest Portland International Hostel) when one of the staff members recommended this place. I took a stroll and hung out at the bookstore for a bit then…More »
6. Veniero's Pastry Shop
My god, just oh my god. I was in NY a month ago and I can still picture the velvety goodness of a slice of Veniero's strawberry cheesecake sitting before me. Hands down the BEST cheesecake a girl could ever wish for.
7. Oleaceae
My god, what a find!
A friend and I stumbled upon this store while on a two hour visit to Santa Fe on our way to Albuquerque. We loved it so much that we spent a significant amount of time in here sampling all of their balsamic vinegars. You'll feel…More »
8. Northwest Portland International Hostel
Portland, OR 97209
(503) 241-2783
Category:
Hostels
Neighbourhoods: Alphabet District, Northwest
This has been the only hostel experience I have had in the US and it was fantastic! If I remember correctly, I only had a choice between 2 hostels while in Portland and this one is the only one in walking distance to downtown. Being that there isn't…More »
9. Southport Grocery & Cafe
Chicago, IL 60657
(773) 665-0100
Visited friends in Chicago back in 2005. They took me to the Southport Grocery as it was one of their favorite spots at the time. I was only in Chicago for a total of 5 days but we managed to go there TWICE 'cuz it's THAT good! And now, 4 years…More »
10. Willard Scoops
I hit this place up on a recommendation by a local that a friend and I met at a bar while in Portland. The place is tiny and nestled in a charming little neighborhood. It looks like the kind of place you'd like to raise a family.. but who knows.. I…More »
11. Arshels Cafe
Home-made strawberry rhubarb pie? Um, YES, please :)
This little place is cute. The signage and decor are adorable. The friend and I stopped here for lunch. The service was phenomenal and they even have a set of random little books on every table to…More »
12. What'a Grind
My friend and I were on our way back to Los Angeles when we realized that we were in need of gas, food and a post office. Thankfully Yelp lead us to Trinidad. We had a great little lunch at the counter and talked to the owner, Lauren. We shared…More »
13. Bouchon Bakery
New York, NY 10019

Categories:
Bakeries,
French,
Sandwiches
Neighbourhoods: Hell's Kitchen, Midtown West
I decided to try this place out because a fellow helper said that the "nutter butter" cookie itself was worth the trip to Bouchon. My friend and I made a quick stop to grab one of these cookies for our lunch @ Central Park.
If you like peanut butter,…More »
14. Lizzie Borden Bed & Breakfast Museum
My friend wanted to come here after seeing this place featured on some late-night "most haunted" show on cable. We put this on our US roadtrip checklist and were happy to cross it off. It was okay; kinda cool because it's such a unique little find.…More »
15. Ben & Jerry's Waterbury Plant
Waterbury, VT 05676
(802) 882-1240
Categories:
Ice Cream & Frozen Yogurt,
Tours
The tour itself was mediocre at best but the drive across New Hampshire from Portland, Maine made it all worth while.
They don't make ice cream on weekends so if you're looking to see some action, try and get there M-F. Tour is like $3 and you get a…More »
16. Backcountry Provisions
There was nothing really exciting about this place for me AT ALL. It was pretty forgettable, actually. A friend and I came here because fellow Yelpers had given Backcountry Provisions such high ratings. However, after trying this place I couldn't…More »
17. Melissa's Gourmet
Just OK. A friend and I found ourselves on the southwest corner of Central Park and decided to grab a sandwich for a picnic. I had a roastbeef sandwich and a side of curry chicken salad. The sandwich was cool.. nothing particularly special. Although,…More »
