Along with finding a place to stay, finding something to eat is likely to be foremost on your mind when you arrive. Food is very closely linked to culture, and while most Americans might deny it, there is a dominant style of food that is common here. This chapter explores types of restaurants, styles of food, our food habits, and food customs.
Most cities feature inexpensive paperback books, usually available in bookstores, covering their eating places, or you can check local magazines and newspapers for advertisements. Your colleagues at school or work, or hotel personnel, will be glad to offer suggestions, too.
Hotels
Most people start their visit to the United States by staying in a hotel. You will find that hotel restaurants, grills, and lounges are nearly always more expensive than neighborhood restaurants. It is worth wandering up and down the nearby streets to see if you can find something less expensive and more enjoyable. The hotel employees might also suggest nearby restaurants. Coffee shops in a hotel are sometimes less expensive than restaurants.
