Planning on doing some traveling this summer? Looking for a list of the dining hot spots that you should stop
by for a memorable meal? Start with the go list from Food and
Wine magazine, which picks out 376 restaurants chosen by "plugged in correspondents" from 50 cities around
the world. They have the goods on restaurants like Michael Mina in San Francisco, Rockpool in Sydney, Ferran Adria's
Fast Good in Madrid and Felix in Hong Kong, including a picks at both the high and lower ends of the price range.
Now, it's not possible that a list like this, even such a large one, would have all the great eats of any given city, but you aren't likely to have a bad meal by picking any of their choices. If you're traveling somewhere a little off the beaten path that isn't on the "go list," or are looking for something specific, it might be best to turn to another source of restaurant information. And the best resource, in my opinion, when traveling and looking for good eats is still Chowhound. Take some time to browse through their archives and look for recommendations, or pose a question on their message board if you're looking for something specific - like the best mexican food in Boise, ID.
