Two For The Road: Our Love Affair With American Food |
|
Annotations:
In this laugh-out-loud culinary memoir, the Sterns tell the story behind their lifelong road trip, offering a front-seat view of smoke pits, boardinghouse-style restaurants, and cafes where customized mugs for regulars hang on pegboards.
Publisher's Remarks:
Part memoir, part guidebook, part cookbook, and all parts hilarious,
Two for the Road shares the lessons the Sterns have learned during
thirty years of sampling regional fare on America's back roads. If you want
a great restaurant, forget the Yellow Pages, ask the local cop--and avoid
anything that calls itself "world famous." Sure bets are places with a giant
plastic pig on the roof or pictures of Jesus on the walls. As the Sterns
search for the Holy Grail of barbecue, they relate achingly funny adventures
and misadventures, and what emerges is a big picture of America,
revealing exotic eating customs that flourish right under our noses.
