States Rights: Chit Chat #29
What US State is the most under-rated as a travel destination?
Here is my question: What US State is the most under-rated as a travel destination?
Who has those BRAGGING rights?
I am going with Alabama. Not a lot of talk about how superb the food is down there… From Birmingham to Mobile, some of the best Southern cooking, from BBQ to seafood to grandmas comfort food can be found in Alabama… I mean, c’mon, Frank Stitt is cooking there!
What state do you think deserves more attention for its food? Share with the rest of us.
Actually guys I don’t think of Tennessee as being underrated in the food scene. It seems Tenn gets a lot of play & attention. What I do think is that it’s all based on Nashville! Which is delicious & a boatload of fun to graze thru. But I 100% agree with you… the rest of the state…you don’t hear about at all…and it is full of gems, I’d eat catfish on nearly any southern granny’s porch! We used to vacation a lot throughout Tenn & have several family members there. Beautiful state. Let me know when you get that beach and I’m in!
I think that its Tennessee. You can get some of the best BBQ in the world in Memphis and then head east for Nashville Hot Chicken. And we have all of the soul food here too. I don't know how the rest of the world eats catfish, but I'm going to go out on a limb and say most of the other states do it wrong! If the state had a beach... Oh well I guess it will have to stop just shy of perfection.
