Do your homework before leaving - Dining out tip

by Allan May (RSS feed) on Jan 7th 2010 at 2:04PM

Fish tacos in San Diego, deep dish pizza in Chicago, crab cakes in Maryland: anywhere you travel, there's likely a specialty food to go along with it.

Thanks to the Internet and sites like Yelp, researching has never been easier when it comes to finding the best food and restaurants in a particular locale. Don't forget to check the web for local tips -- and be sure to consider sourcing information on Facebook and Twitter.

Before your next trip be sure to do your homework and it will pay off when you arrive and are ready to experience the local cuisine.

One last tip: try to find the places locals prefer ... and avoid restaurants who thrive on the business of tourists.

Check out Cessy's in Carlsbad, California for some seriously good mexican food right on the beach.

If you're looking for some good pizza in New York check out John's Pizzeria on Bleecker St. Soooo yummy!
