Best regional food in Columbus, GA
My wife and I will be at Ft. Benning in early April. We (and a very hungry basic training grad) are looking forward to trying the regional foods, especially BBQ and Southern/soul food in the Columbus/Phenix City area. Any suggestions? Also, does anyone know of any restaurants in that area that serve Country Captain? Thanks.
Krakow!
Definitely get to the kielbasa van! I ended up going there twice while I was in Krakow, just for the experience. Also had a great meal at Wesele, at the southeast corner of the main square, the address is Rynek Glowny 10. I believe the name means "wedding" in Polish, so a meal there might be appropriate given your circumstances. Good pierogies at Zapiecek Polskie Pierogarnie, Ul. Slawkowska 32. Good, basic Polish fare (stuffed cabbage, sausages, etc.) at U Stasi, Ul. Mikolajska 16. My best advice is to have mushroom soup whenever possible. I never cared for it here at home, but it came with the first meal I had in Krakow, and after that I ordered it every time I saw it on a menu. Wonderful. Good eating.
can you get flammkuchen nyc?
Check a restaurant called Cafe d'Alsace on the upper East side.

Visiting Krakow
I plan to be in Krakow in three weeks. I am intrigued by the posts about kielbasa van guys and plan to seek them out. The last posts place their location In front of Hala Targova, on Grzegorzecka, opposite Blich. Is this still accurate? Also, beside CK Browar, are there any brewpubs (Prague-style) in the Old Town/Kazmierz area? Thanks.

Suggestions for Strasbourg and Colmar?
I will be taking a Rhine cruise this summer. Part of the itinerary is Strasbourg and Colmar. I would appreciate suggestions for spots to sample the best regional beer, wine and food in those places. Here are the parameters: I will be on foot and have limited time in each place, so the most valuable suggestions would be spots near the town center/ main tourist area. Also, it’s my first trip to Europe, so I would like to concentrate on Alsatian foods (rather than the best Chinese restaurant in Strasbourg, for example). Thank you.
Along the Rhine.
I will be taking a Rhine cruise this summer. The itinerary is: Cologne, Koblenz, Braubach, Rüdesheim, Mannheim, Heidelberg, Strasbourg, Colmar, Breisach and Basel.

Here are the parameters: I will be on foot and have limited time in each place, so the most valuable suggestions would be spots near the town center/ main tourist area. Also, it’s my first trip to Europe, so I would like to concentrate on German and Alsatian foods (rather than the best Chinese restaurant in Strasbourg, for example). Thanks.
