Who is your culinary inspiration?

What would you do with the $25,000?

I would use the money to travel across the US with hubby while experiencing a food tour like no other. We would visit local restaurants, food festivals, farmers market and hidden gems. This trip will allow us to enjoy incredible meals, chance to learn about the diverse cultures and communities throughout the country. Most importantly it would create life, long memories and strengthen our bond though shared experiences of traveling and discovering new food together.
