After a conversation in another thread I decided it might be neat to create a thread where people recommend the absolute best places that members recommend other members to eat at in either their hometown or in places they have visited.

So basically tell us where's good to eat and what's good on the menu that you've got to try. I'm talking about the best food. Not just good but great food that if you're ever anywhere near the area everyone has got to try it because it's just so dang good.

So let's hear it.

 

Mmmmm . . . Al's Beef in Chicago is one of my favorites . .

 

What do you get there? What's your favorite order?

 

Chicago Italian beef with sweet peppers, fries and a tamale on the side!!

 

Now that sounds like a meal!

 

MmmmHmmm . . . :Nice: . .

 

Shady Maple Smorgasbord hands down the best you'll ever go to. Rotating daily menu and their breakfast is to die for especially the cheesesteak omelette!

Felix's Fish Camp in Mobile is always a must eat place when I'm down there. Gotta have an order of those crab claws.

The alligator wasn't there when I went a few months ago. He's usually hanging out just below the window seats.

 

I usually check the diners, drive ins and dives web site before I hit the road. Good thread here
