Newfoundland

We're going in mid-August and information on this region is hard to come by. 
 
We'll land on the west coast and drive through Twillingate before spending our final few nights in St. John's.

    If you find anything "Roadfood worthy" please let me know. We intend to visit the Canadian Maritimes on an extended 2 week road trip next year.

    Lucky you.  This is a wonderful place to visit.  I have been there many times.  How much time will you have there?

    So I am thinking that you are flying into Corner Brook, renting a car and driving to St. John?

    Watch the Zimmerman episode on Newfoundland.

    Or the recent "Parts Unknown" by Anthony Bourdain.

    Flying into Deer Lake actually. But yes to the rest.

    Finalizing...
     
    Eight nights...
    2 in Rocky Harbour
    2 in Bonavista (audible -- looks better than Twillingate)
    4 in St. John's
     
    Won't be a true Roadfood tour but I'll definitely report back with our findings.

    Definitely check out Bourdain's Parts Unknown episode with Fred Morin and David McMillan - I'm going next summer.

    I did see that. Chafe's Landing will be an official Bonk & Mrs. Bonk stop.

    Just getting back from this trip. Huge write-up coming with tons of photos, which will not do this region any kind of justice.
     
    What an unbelievable place. Totally unique food and scenery.
