As detailed in Part Two of this report, we were eager to leave Montpelier, Vermont, and head for the New Haven, Connecticut area Wednesday morning. Our route took us past more beautiful scenery, including some trees with leaves that had changed color early. We were also going by Norwich, Vermont, which is where one canContinue reading “New England Road-Trip 2026: Part Three”

New England Road-Trip 2026: Part Two
Those of you who have read my past trip reports know that my wife and I have been visiting state capitol buildings during our travels for many years – even longer than we’ve been married. A pair in New England that we hadn’t yet hit before this trip were those in New Hampshire and Vermont.Continue reading “New England Road-Trip 2026: Part Two”
New England Road-Trip 2026: Part One
With the exception of the peak pandemic years, my wife and I have taken a roughly week-long vacation that included a heavy dose of roadfood stops annually for as long as we’ve been married. The majority of those trips have been to the Midwest. But we’ve also mixed in other parts of the country, withContinue reading “New England Road-Trip 2026: Part One”
Weekend Jaunt for Reunion – and Food
Although it didn’t take long for it to evolve into something else, my initial purpose for starting this blog in 2021 was to write about what my wife and I eat during our travels. In line with that, my return to blogging following a forced hiatus for a few months to deal with a dentalContinue reading “Weekend Jaunt for Reunion – and Food”
2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part Three)
After a couple days of great eating at some very classic roadfood establishments in Wisconsin, it was time to head back in the direction of home Friday morning. Our eventual destination that day was Toledo, Ohio, but we took a detour in northern Indiana to return to Goshen, where we enjoyed a great lunch atContinue reading “2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part Three)”
2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part Two)
This middle part of the trip report will be entirely devoted to our two days in southern Wisconsin. They started off with lunch Wednesday at the state’s oldest Chinese restaurant – and one of the oldest in the U.S. – the Cozy Inn of Janesville, Wisconsin. Regular readers of this blog know that one ofContinue reading “2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part Two)”
2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part One)
This blog was begun in 2021 so that I’d have public cyber space on which to recreate and save the trip reports that were permanently lost when the roadfood.com message board on which I posted them went defunct. It fairly quickly morphed into something else, but those reports are still available here along with aContinue reading “2025 Midwest Roadfood Trip (Part One)”
Ten Coolest Looking Roadfood Spots I’ve Visited
I had intended to post this week about my Saturday lunch outing. But you know what they say about the best laid plans. The meal wasn’t particularly good and left me with little desire to write about it. I am usually hesitant to post a mainly negative review about restaurants, not wanting to do anyContinue reading “Ten Coolest Looking Roadfood Spots I’ve Visited”
Connecticut 2023, Part 2: Eating on the Coast
As enjoyable as our trip had been before we headed to the Connecticut coast late Sunday morning, I was filled with a burning desire to eat some really good food by that point after a few meals that didn’t live up to my expectations. The first thing I had on my mind was a warmContinue reading “Connecticut 2023, Part 2: Eating on the Coast”
New York State and Connecticut: Part One
It was fantastic to be back on the road this past week when my wife and I ventured up to New York State and Connecticut to see old friends and visit a couple historically significant tourist attractions. This turned out to be an unusual trip in that we didn’t eat any noteworthy food until itsContinue reading “New York State and Connecticut: Part One”
