First off, I'd like to thank the Kelly-Douglas Fund for making these travels possible.
Because of this fund, I get to meet and greet and eat my way across the South!
The goal of my culinary travels is to discover the culture embedded in food. I'll be visiting diners, restaurants, farmers markets, cafes, food trucks... anything that serves divine edibles.
BUT there is one very, very important rule: No food chains!
In the next few days, I'll be driving through Greensboro, Atlanta, and New Orleans before finally reaching my destination of Beaumont, TX. Then, I'll roam around Texas throughout the summer.
Please throw any and all dining suggestions at me!
