295 recipes offered by roadside cafes

In The Main Street Of America Cookbook, Marian Clark draws from an eight-state culinary adventure along Route 66 to showcase menus and 295 recipes offered by roadside cafes, restaurants, and eateries (as well as highlighting local home cooks encountered along the road and the secrets of their specialities). From Greek Meatballs; Chicken and Rice in Wine; and Oklahoma Calf Fries; to Ben Konis' Hot Damn Texas Panhandle Salami; Blueberry Cinnamon Rolls; and Baked Apple Pancake, The Main Street Of America Cookbook offers a wealth of highly recommended, nutritious and palate pleasing dishes that would complement any family menu.

Another wonderful book

As with her other book, the Route 66 Cookbook, Marion Clark has again combined wonderful recipes with interesting facts and history on the ever-fasinating Route 66. I wish I had this book before I took my Route 66 roadtrip. Of course, I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys great recipes. But I also recommend it to those who have traveled or long to travel the "mother road." It's a great read for all! (I'm eagerly awaiting the release of her next Route 66 Cookbook!)
