About once a month we have Carl fly us in the LearJet to Lisbon for Baba Ghanoush, Kibbeh and Kafta. I guess that's about 6, 650 miles.
What!?!?!?!?!?!?!
Me Lie?!?!?!?!?!?!?!
OK, would you believe?
There is an Italian Restaurant in Quitman we often drive to for dinner. Honestly there is nothing else in Quitman to go to and we know no one who lives there, so that must be why we drive there - maybe 45 miles
I guess we go to NO for eating. Maybe 3 hours.

4 hour round trip for Frank's Bloody Marys
I have the recipe.
Styrofoam Cup
Ice
Vodka
Major Peters Bloody Mary Mix
Squeeze Lemon
Worsetershire
Couple dashes Louisiana hot sauce
Celery stick
Couple olives
As far driving somewhere for a certain food.
We drive to NOLA often just to eat. 70 miles round trip.
Worst I ever heard was my buddy who is in a MC club. They rode their bikes to Lamberts near Gulf Shores from Houma, ate and came back. That's 7 hours on a motorbike.

To Bywater for General Lee's chicken. Unless you count getting in a bus to buy beer in Broussard.

I would drive from NOLA to Henderson for some crawfish bisque from Pat's, but I can't get anybody to go with me.
I haven't eaten at Pat's in years. I thought I heard it had declined. Is it still good?

I ate there 3 years ago. First batch of crawfish were excellent. Second batch wasn't . Turtle soup was subpar...very thin. Been there, done that.

I drive to Memphis for BBQ and sauce probably once every 6 weeks
Posted on 1/2/16 at 10:00 am to Honky Lips
Probably an hour and a half round trip for some BBQ

If I am anywhere near Eastern TN, then I am making the trek to Ridgwood BBQ in Bluff City. Very unique bbq sandwiches and the worlds best bbq baked beans.

Sportsman's is seriously legit. I used to take my boat there every weekend for a shrimp poboy when I was a kid.

quote:I don't really know, to be honest. We used to visit aunts, uncles and grandparents in Welsh, but that generation has passed, so we don't make the trip anymore. Every trip we'd hit up Pat's for lunch at least one time. It was always great. And their crawfish bisque was the best I ever ate. You could tell they put a lot of crawfish fat in there.
