Harry & Izzy's - Indianapolis, IN

One of my favorite ways to travel is through food.  Yes, I like to try different types of food in my hometown to get an ‘out-of-town’ experience, but trying news foods in new places is infinitely better.   So in the days to follow, I will let you in on a few of my culinary road trip highlights:

This place was really put on the map by an episode of “The Best Thing I Ever Ate” (spicy edition).  I believe it was Bobby Flay who wanted their spicy shrimp cocktail featured on the show, so of course, we dug right in to this raw horseradish-filled appetizer!          
This, obviously, was not the only thing we ate… We had a delicious bottle of wine, an order of fried green tomatoes (first ever and we fell in love), a Baked Tuscan pasta, an order of chopped steak with blue cheese and caramelized onions, and a delicious and creamy Crème Brulee for dessert.  Heaven.
