    EF547DC4-AFE5-4CAF-A8C5-05BE8CD6DA43.png Not at a truck stop, but Gus’s World Famous Fried Chicken location at 2943 N Germantown Pkwy, Bartlett, TN 38133 (east side of Memphis off of I-40) is a longtime favorite of mine.

    The best way to get there from either direction is to take the Appling Road north exit. Appling turns into Brother Blvd and curves around to N Germantown Pkwy. Turn right and it’s up on the right, next to Waffle House. Park in the curb lane (far right lane which turns into a right turn lane a couple of hundred feet ahead) and no one will hassle you, at least in the time it takes to get a to-go order. I’m usually headed west, so I go across the Mississippi River and park in one of the many truck parking areas to eat it.

    Greenville, Tx I 30 exit 87. Little fuel stop with the Huddle House restaurant across the street from the Pilot. In the back of the convenience store is a little Taqueria at the back of the store. Two ladies there have some decent Mexican food.

    One minor correction. Quik Trip will be impossible to find in Tomah and Mauston.
    They are a different company. Kwik Trip, or Kwik Star in any state that has QuikTrip stores. Years ago I came down with strep, and had to visit the VA in Tomah. I spent a few days in the sleeper, waiting for the antibiotics to start working, and for the fever to break.
