good eats along the way....

does anybody know if the hungry house restuarant on i44 between joplin & springfield mo. ever reopened? that was a real good place to eat at. plenty of truck parking & plenty of food for the money.

 

Thanks duker. Always looking for some place to eat to escape the horrors of the truckstop food.

 

Yep. And Subway. I love a good Subway. About once a week. Hell every time I look around that's all I see.

 

And that Del Taco is the first one....and the best. Their food is much better than most of the Del Tacos "down the hill". We stop there almost every time we go to Las Vegas

 

big duker man o man does that obama pic make me laugh thanks - its always good to laugh - helps to destress- good one

 

The Williamsburg one may have enough room for truck parking in the back between it and the Sleep Inn Hotel.

The Newport News one does have enough parking for trucks since I have seen at least three of them there.

The Hampton one does have a big parking lot in the back.

 

there is 2 in va beach.. both have no room for trucks...

 

cowboy burger in ontario/fontana, ca is pretty #### good. johnson's corner in loveland, co is worthy of mention. when it comes to cowboy burger, i park around the corner from it. don't attempt to park in there with attached to a trailer. it can be done, but you'll be wishing you hadn't gone in. you might not be able to get out.

 

eating out of the truck is best when you can. it's a balance of art and science. Sam's has canned chicken that can be added to any soup or broth (Sam's again). Many foods dont require refrigeration as many think...(you'll think I'm crazy but it's a proven fact!!) Mayo, cheese, eggs.....( what did the world do before refrigeration??)(the acid in mayo prevents bacteria growth)

have been dehydrating beef, pork and chicken at home between stop. takes a day. Make your own jerky. that's all it is . darn good too.

 

A few of my favorites...LeeHi travel plaza I81 exit 195 in Virginia. In carlisle Pa. just down from the flyingJ off of exit 52 is a little diner called Middlesex diner....great food, very affordable, and you get plenty of it. Also exit 100 in Pa. on I81.
