WELCOME
David-Jacobs Publishing Group and the Food
Traveler team are proud to present to you this
winter edition of Food Traveler Magazine.
In this issue, you will find a handful of the
best restaurants in America, along with the
histories of what makes them so intriguing.
You will also find information on top-rated
winter destinations, from mountain getaways
to tropical resorts, as well as areas to find inseason seafood, and where to journey for an
outstanding craft beer or wine experience.
A special “thank you” goes to Ali Khan, host
of Cheap Eats on Cooking Channel, for his
contribution to this winter issue. Ali has
been huge supporter of America’s iconic food
culture, and has been reviewing restaurants
and traveling all over the country in search of
the most unique foodie experience, whether
it’s tasting tacos or diving into saucy BBQ.
We got up close and personal with Ali in an
exclusive interview, where he shares his
delightful background story of how he got
started in the industry, as well as what a day
in the life of filming Cheap Eats entails.
In each and every issue, we hope to provide
resourceful and interesting information that
is needed to plan your next vacation. Each
memory made is precious, and whether
you’re out and about with the whole family,
or spending simple quality time with your
spouse, we want you to find the destination
you’ve been searching for. Unforgettable
hideaways, five-star quality meals, and good
people to share it all with is what keeps travel
close to our hearts. We like to encourage you
to always try new things, and to never turn
down the opportunity to experience the magic
of culture and cuisine.
Wishing you all the best
this winter season,
Your Food Traveler Team
