I'm a Minnesota Girl, living in the south. I tell my friends I try not to talk and think like a Yankee, but sometimes I slip up!

Starting the Blog for 2015, Decided to Go With Iconic



http://bit.ly/1HrCpNk

If you try the link above, you'll be treated to a list of the 50 Most Iconic restaurants (1 per state) as summarized by the writers of Thrillist.

I've traveled in 33 states.   But I've only eaten in 4 (and only restaurants that have survived for decades need apply).

From my really great places to eat lists:       The Commander's Palace in N'Awlins
                                                                       Katz's Deli in NYC

From my really obscure lists:                        Matt's Bar in Mpls   (home of the Juicy Lucy)
                                                                       The Red Pepper in GF, Nodak.

I almost wept from hunger at seeing the Red Pepper again.   I hadn't remembered its name, but I never forgot those delicious grinders and garbage plates no matter what the weather in college. 

Here it is (whoda thunk it would survive for nearly 6 decades?)   I'm not sure I was ever there before midnight, but maybe.........



Enjoy the list and see if you agree for your state, or,  how many you have eaten at!!!!!

You Remember 100% of 2008





You were paying attention during 2008.

And you remember what happened really well.



You'll be able to talk about 2008 for years to come...

Even when most people have forgotten what went down.
