    Get excited people.

    At approximately 5:50 pm EST, I bought a Flip cam.  This isn’t even the good part.  I finish my MBA in June (hurrah!) and will be leaving Boston.  I don’t actually start work until August, which means I am without permanent home for a little while.

    Which means:

    It’s a perfect opportunity to take a cross-country road trip!

    Starting in June, my friend Emily and I will be embarking on a cross-country road trip.  Now you’re probably wondering what this has to do with food and/or video.  Emily, also being a fellow food-o-phile, and I will hunting for some great places to chow down.  I hope to document the process with my Flip cam!  It will be much easier to just show you what we’re eating than continuously write about it! Plus, you’ll get to see real-time reactions.

    We’re (tentatively) planning to stop in these cities, let me know if you have any recommendations on things to see and places to eat!

    • Charlottesville
    • Nashville
    • Memphis
    • Dallas
    • Austin
    • Grand Canyon

    Oh yea, I just finished making a batch of risotto, recipe to come soon.

  • Austin: Torchy's tacos!!!!!!!!

    I cant wait!

    since you'll be passing through Dallas, you can't pass up Sonny Brien's----get there early for lunch (11:30 AM) and you'll get Bar-B Que briskit that will knock your socks off!

    Jack's BBQ (on Broadway) is kind of a tourist and local staple in Nashville.
    Sukho Thai is ~10 minutes outside Nashville, but really good Thai(!) food.
    Loveless Cafe is well outside Nashville (~20 min?) but is very popular. Lots of tourists, but lots of locals too. Pancake Pantry is heart of Nashville, but it's impossible to get a table there - best to go really early or really late (for brunch). Local favorite.
    Must see a show at the Grand Ol' Opry. Opryland is worth a walk around, but probably not worth spending any money there.
    Bar hopping on Broadway is a great way to hear a lot of amazing music. Tootsie's, Legends, Full Moon Saloon, The Stage are all fun.
    Everything above are places I'd recommend and have been.

    One place I've never been is Prince's Hot Chicken Shack . It's supposed to be amazing.
