I used to think that ambience didn't matter; my focus strictly was on the food. That is wrong. Ambience is hugely important to the joy of Roadfooding, by which I do not mean suave service, impeccable table settings, and stylish decor. Some of the best meals in this country are memorable not only for the good food, but for the colorful setting in which they are served. That can range from a windblown picnic table overlooking the Maine coast for eating lobster to a polite little tea room in the Deep South. Some of the most atmospheric eateries are the barbecue parlors in the Southwest. The best of them will not win awards for impeccability and sophistication, but they quite literally reek with the flavor and the history of smoked meats. Above are pictures of two of the best of them. Do you know which places they are?
