    1. Martin's Trailside- East Earl, PA

    2. Howes 84 travel plaza- I-84 exit 17 sterling, PA

    3. The Milk Run- East Durham, NY I-87 exit 21?

    4. Truck world in Ohio, back when you could get a big ### bucket of wings and they made them right there. Now apparently they cook them in an adjacent building and bring them to you. Haven't been back in years.
