Top five weekend travel media stories

Among the travel stories in this weekend's newspaper travel sections, the following articles were especially inspirational.

1. Peter Frick-Wright writes a lip-smacking ode to the Cowboy Dinner Tree steakhouse in Silver Lake, Oregon in Portland's Oregonian.

2. In an article in Melbourne's The Age, Jewel Topsfield cruises down the Mekong, through Cambodia and Vietnam. She eats a tarantula, too.

3. In the Times of London, Tom Chesshyre lists the world's 20 best art hotels. There are some remarkably inexpensive hotels among the lot, including Amsterdam's Hotel Winston, with double rooms starting at €70 per night.

4. In the New Zealand Herald, Jim Eagles goes birdwatching in Miranda, in New Zealand's Waikato Region. Miranda is an hour from Auckland by car.

5. In the Independent, David Leffman provides a great traveler's Iceland primer. Full of good consumer information, it also provides a handy historical snapshot.
