I made an earlier post about this curious travel/recipe book where I only included the cover and the Toll House Cookies recipe from page 33. That post resulted in a lot of fun & interesting comments, and requests for more info & more recipes.
So here goes. There are way too many pages to post them all. (258 in all if you count the numbered pages plus covers & credits & titles & extra artwork, etc.) But this time I’ve included photos of the indexes of the restaurants and the recipes featured in the book. Note that the book is divided into 5 regions. I selected 2 pages from each region to include in this post. I chose those pages as an attempt at variety and because even though I have not actually tried those recipes yet, I intend to try them in the future. I’m hoping readers of this post might know about, or do some research on, the 10 places & recipes I’ve posted. I hope others will add their knowledge and stories here. Not just about the cooking or recipes, but also about the places or even their travels to these places. For me, eating is joyful. But eating plus company plus some “old recipes” history makes the cooking eating sharing journey even more comforting and special!
Enjoy!
If there are requests for other specific pages, I may build yet another post based on requests.

Oooh I’d love to see pg 79, the Chateau Laurier. It’s a gorgeous building right beside Parliament, and was in the news lately because of a Winston Churchill portrait that was token and then found in Italy
I’d love to see Elkhart Indiana on p.145. I’m so curious to see what restaurant was chosen.
OMG. This is wild because I had that cover art as my computer wallpaper for YEARSSSSSSS! I had no idea!
Can I see what it has for Morgantown WV on page 94?? I did not expect to see it featured in this book!
