Every place has something to offer, bless your heart. I am a yankee, yep read that as you wish. Here we go. I love to travel around just to find out what I can find locally. If I stop in some place and do not find anything familiar on the breakfast menu that I recognize I just ask the waitress. She often has a recommendation that will get me off to a good start for the day. If you have lost your sense of adventure, I pity you. You will lose out on so many pleasures that are available while you are on the road. Where I live biscuits and gravy are not the norm but are available on the menu. If I go south they become far more common and are better. If I go north they are not available but other foods are. If I go into Canada I find foods that simply do not exist in the US. Have you ever enjoyed fries that are soaked in gravy and cheese? I bet not, but they are a great food in some parts of Canada and are very good. At present I can't remember what they call them but I am ready to order them again if I see them. Maybe it is poutain but I am not sure.
When I was in Switzerland they had a dish called roesti. (pronounced rishtee) It was sort of like hash browns but was so much better that it was the main feature on many a menu with just a hint of the food it came with, like a steak as an example. The roesti was the feature and the things it came with were just there to round out the meal. I came upon a guy who was using a huge cast iron pot to make roesti, think of an independent guy making kettle corn for comparison, and I got some from him. I never had better roesti. It was great.
