Top US Cities for Foodies
The American cities where the food is worth planning a trip around.
American food is regional, and the gap between cities is wider than the national chains suggest.
Some cities are defined by one thing done better than anywhere else — Kansas City’s burnt ends, Tucson’s Sonoran cooking, Milwaukee’s Friday fish fry and frozen custard. Others earn their place on breadth: New York and the Bay Area can put almost any cuisine on the table cooked by people who grew up with it.
The most rewarding cities are often the ones without a reputation. Fresno’s Hmong market, Stockton’s Filipino kitchens, Oxnard’s Oaxacan cooking and Newark’s Ironbound are all better than the cities they sit beside — and considerably cheaper.
