Chad Christian Clift is a chef based in the Seattle area, a city known for its wide range of great restaurants. He also is particularly passionate about traveling and has ventured to many cities and countries all over the world. However, there are also many cities in the United States that have great restaurant scenes that are often overlooked. Here are some of Clift’s favorite underrated foodie cities.
– Kansas City, Missouri is often thought of as a cow town, home to farmers and ranchers, but there’s plenty of great food here other than barbeque. From organic eats to classy cocktail bars, there are numerable great options for foodies to enjoy here.
– Many people overlook Baltimore in favor of some of the East Coast’s bigger cities, such as Washington D.C., New York, and Boston, but Baltimore actually has some of the country’s best seafood around. Baltimore is particularly known as the home of amazing crab cakes, but diners can also enjoy a wide range of different cuisines here.
– Asheville, North Carolina, is considered a hidden gem in many different ways, but there are a huge number of great restaurants to choose from in this small Southern city. The artsy vibe of the town also makes it a great place to explore in general.
– Cleveland is a Midwestern city with a surprisingly great food and craft beer scene. The city’s affordability also means you can explore the restaurant scene without breaking the bank.
