And, while it's possible to find great local food practically everywhere, some cities are worth visiting specifically for their food. These cities tend to have mature food cultures as opposed to being famous for just one special dish. That being said, some tasty cities are famous for perfecting one or more American food favorites.

The American culinary landscape is eclectic to say the least.
