Unknown must visit restaurants in your city

Atlanta:
Kool Korner on 14th - best cuban sandwiches ever. lots of history, the same smiling cuban dude has been working there forever, he must be 80. real hole-in-the-wall place, it's locally famous, but gets 0% tourists.

Milwaukee:
Stoups - Strait up stews or soups, made with love, these things could fill a stomache, OR cure a hang-over. I miss this place.

These are both $7 lunch places, so keep that in mind

Wow, Joe's Stone Crab... that sounds like a cool idea. They specialize in some weird form of crab, huh? Must have just popped up in the last few years... Guess I'll have to check them out next time I'm in Miami, good to see these new places coming up.

I went with my grandfather 20+ years ago. The lines are out the door, for chrissakes EVERYONE knows Joe's Stone Crab. When you look up unknown in the dictionary, the definition says " the opposite of Joe's Stone Crab."

I have heard of a place called Monty's Stone Crab, but never been- anyone know anything about that place?

LOL owned.

But that does raise a decent enough question: is this place supposed to be unknown by locals, or just not a place a tourist would normally find?

If it's the latter, I'll say Kincaid's Hamburgers for Fort Worth. Old-timey grocery store where you stand up to a counter to eat your burger. Best damn burgers ever, but almost every local knows the place so I don't know if that's what we're looking for.

I was replying to "bakes" question. Do you read between the lines all the time?

This is exactly the type of place we are looking for. Next time I'm in Dallas, I'm taking a trip.

Driving near the capital in Des Moines, Iowa, Tasty Tacos looks to be a dingy, crappy place, but this is very misleading. Though it is in essence a fast food restaurant, the flour tacos are simply amazing.

Downtown, business travelers are seriously missing out if they don't stop by South Union Bread Co, which is only open during the lunch hour. Most people haven't heard of South Union, but the sandwhiches are the best in town.

Go visit the Pizza Nazi at Apizza Scholls on Hawthorne.

Los Tres Hermanos is a taco truck that can be found parked near the corner of Killingworth & Denver (across the street from Di Prima Dolce, which also rocks).

I'm very partial to Ken's Place, also on Hawthorne. Casual atmosphere, serious attention to the food. Turns into a barbeque place one day a week, and it's the best BBQ in the Pacific Northwest.
