Perhaps it's easier to say no Asian, Arabian, European, N. & S.
American, African, Antartican or anything like that if it includes
cooked veggies (well, that just depends!!!!)? No fast food, no Waffle
Houses (IHOPs aren't so bad) & anything immediately off the exits,
unless the 'eatery' is truly unique and worthwhile?! Does that limit
the options Steaks & potatoes are great! BBQ, very good Tex-Mex and
true Mexican (no beans BTW), and 'regular' diners are good, too
Thing is, distance from the main route(s) is a constraint. IOW, time is
limited. Gotta get to CCTX quickly for the trip south - heading back
north has no deadline - and I'm not sure which route is first - I intend
to take two different "legs," and one of those might be through
Houston/Katy and the other via SA & Austin - but that's not a given.
Nothing is set in stone, yet.

Sky, who treasures any chance to travel

P.S. If it's green & cooked, I won't eat it <VBG>! er, except maybe
artichokes :>>

P.P.S. Sausage biscuits for breakfast don't count, but they are cheap &
not so bad <G> !!!!
