Summary: Great Book
Comment: In the preface, the author mentions that the book is about "food & fun". That's true, however, to me, the main appeal is his diligent research into, sometimes obscure, areas, in order to find restaurants(and derivatives thereof) that combine good food, fine service, and fascinating atomosphere! The reader will be amazed to find so many interesting places, nearby, that they have not yet discovered. All places included in the book are in Ohio, with the exception of a few in Pennsylvania, Indiana, New York, Michigan, and Ontario, Canada. Mr. Zurcher takes you on journeys which include special places, such as...an 18th Century tavern that serves food from a 200 year-old recipe...a 19th Century bed-and-breakfast/tavern that includes beautiful and serene landscapes...an honest-to-goodness fifties drive-in restaurant with a chronologically-correct juke box(I loved it!)...a diner inside a Harley-Davidson dealership...a restaurant that features an antique-car museum and antiques in general...a tuba museum/restaurant...fine Amish restaurants(discover Amish history while in the area)...an actual castle with a restaurant that serves exotic food such as buffalo and ostrich...tearooms with elegant atmosphere and beautiful, rustic surroundings. He, in addition, provides a virtual "who's who" of purveyors of pizza, ice cream, cheese, hot dogs, popcorn, and more! Neil Zurcher's presentation is clever, concise, and really easy to read...the book will entice you onto the road. For a modest amount paid for the book, the reader receives a whole lot more than a "tankful" of memories and interesting dining experiences...TED DRISCOL

Summary: Neil Zurcher's One Tank Road Foods
Comment: Having read Mr. Zurcher's two previous One Tank Trip books and having found them thoroughly enjoyable I approached this third edition with great delight. It certainly did not dissapoint me. I found the publication absolutely entertaining and full of great stories and places to eat. What a great surprise to open what I thought to be a book on restaurants and find myself laughing from cover to cover. The way the author intertwines reality with good old front porch stories and humor is nothing short of editorial wizardry. The book is a masterpiece of education and entertainment. I personally will not only use it as a where to go to eat bible but will undoubtedly re-read it for it's entertainment qualities. I highly reccomend the book and think it should be in every home, car and christmas stocking. Thank you Mr. Zurcher for the hours of delight. I can't wait for the next one.
