Road Food, Diners and Delis

The first thing you should do if you need to know about Road Food is to go to Jane and Michael Stern's wonderful blog: https://roadfood.com/  It's encyclopedic, interactive and wonderful. 

I was talking to a friend yesterday about road food - because we all travel and we all eat. She's headed to Pennsylvania, driving through Hartford, Connecticut. "Don't miss Rein's Deli!!!" I cried. If you'll be anywhere near Hartford, or have any excuse to be anywhere near Hartford, go there: http://www.reinsdeli.com/ As fine a deli as I've ever found, and maybe the most conveniently located. 

I’ll be adding recommendations as I find them.

Blue Bird Restaurant, Rt. 1, Machias, Maine - http://bluebirdranchrestaurant.com/ - good solid road food, excellent breakfast, fine corned beef hash, homemade Anadama toast, local blueberry jam, hearty dinners.

Nicky’s Cruisin’ Diner, Bangor, Maine - http://www.nickyscruisindiner.com/ - excellent diner, fast, reasonable, good menu, breakfast all day, tabletop jukeboxes!
