I have absolutely no idea what it might be like during the other 51 weeks of the year but for one shining week in late July, Friar Tuck’s is a Mecca for pilots and other people who love things that fly. Immediately adjacent to Oshkosh’s Wittman Field, Friar Tuck’s is within easy walking distance for the hundreds of thousands who attend AirVenture each year.

Though it was most definitely not always so, Northeastern Pennsylvania now boasts a surprising number of excellent restaurants. In my opinion, Patsel’s is perhaps the finest. While so many find dining restaurants have muted décor and lighting, Patsel’s is remarkably bright.

Inca Kola is exported to parts of South America, and while it has not enjoyed major success elsewhere, it can be found in Latin American specialty shops worldwide.… (read more about Good types of Drinks Of Culture around the World )

I have eaten at Red Lobster many many times and have never had bad food or service. Our waitress was very nice and pleasant.

Situated on Bamako's main restaurant strip, Le Relais provides excellent service and decent choice of Italian fare. Spaghetti with pesto and gnocchi were excellent options. It is a bit pricey for Bamako, on order of $15-20 for dinner (average prices if you compare to prices in the U.S.) but worth it if you are jonesin' for Italian while in Mali
