Best in the U.S.
 
Sorry if this has been done ad nauseam, but I'm curious what you think are the best destinations to grab a great meal. Here are my top five: (not in order of preference)<BR><BR>San Francisco<BR>New Orleans<BR>Chicago<BR>Memphis (for bbq)<BR>Baltimore (for crab)<BR>Seattle (tied for fifth)<BR><BR>I've never spent enough time in NY to make a judgement.

Slugging down a mocha cappucino brain freeze drink (with the little chocolate-covered coffee beans mixed in) at a table outside Malaprop's Bookstore on Haywood Street, Asheville, NC -- especially at the end of a warm day, when Haywood Street is in shadow, but the Basilica of St. Lawrence down at the end is aglow in the orange light of the sunset. The statues and belltowers of the basilica cast long shadows, and people walking their dogs gather by that metal sculpture of three window shopping ladies in front of the bookstore to chat...<BR><BR>A definite best in the US.
