| Publisher Description: D. G. Martin is back with an updated and expanded edition of North Carolina's Roadside Eateries. Now there are even more restaurants and things to do for the interstate traveler. North Carolina's favorite TV host and columnist has spent years traveling the major roadways of the Tar Heel State on the lookout for community, local history, and, of course, a good home-cooked meal. Here, D. G. is your personal tour guide to 129 notable local roadway haunts that serve not only as great places to eat but also as fixtures of their communities. A North Carolinian since childhood, D. G. urges travelers--both local and those just visiting--to forget the countless chain restaurants that dot our highways and go just a little out of the way to find the most memorable roadside pit stops, including everything from BBQ joints and country kitchens to Mexican restaurants and the occasional Greek diner. From the mountains to the coast and everywhere in between, D. G. highlights the best eats on the road and reminds us of the human stories behind the ribs, fried chicken, and collards. Included in this new edition are detailed and up-to-date contact information, hours, directions, and points of interest to explore after you eat. |
