New Orleans & Nashville (and maybe Memphis)
Looking for great food in a couple of cities we've never visited before... Thoughts?
Da Mario, 15 Gloucester Road, not far from Kensington Palace. Great pizza, a fabulous tricolore salad. Ask for a table upstairs, downstairs is kind of cramped and noisy.
There's one more criterion I'd like to add to your list: infallibility. In other words, if you follow the writer's advice, are you ever likely to have a bad meal?
By that measure, in my experience -- and I've followed his taste recommendations in both New York and San Francisco, in high-end restaurants as well as holes-in-the-wall -- the best food writer I know of is Ed Levine.
It isn't sucking up if it's true.

Ed,
I was totally there, went to their website, ordered a candy bar for $5 -- and then found out the shipping charge: $47 for overnight, $27 for two-day. Those were the only options. Sorry, $32 (or $52) for a candy bar is a bit steep, don't you think?
