2+ HRS of America’s UNEXPECTED FOOD Cities | Aussie Foodie Samples GREAT U.S. Food Coast to Coast

Join us for a culinary road trip across six standout American food cities—where bold flavors meet powerful stories. Our Australian Foodie Gary travels the America to six unique and unexpected food cities in this compilation of food travel episodes perfect for an afternoon binge, or for background viewing while you get your housework done. This marathon comprises six full episodes of United Plates of America.

Here’s where you’ll be going:
In Washington, D.C., food becomes a force for social change. From the iconic Busboys and Poets, where art, activism, and cuisine unite, to immigrant-run Foodhini and the pay-what-you-can Sakina Grill, D.C. showcases conscious cuisine, global dishes, and radical hospitality—all tied together with farm-to-table freshness.

Denver delivers community-powered innovation. Chef Dana Rodriguez serves global comfort food at Super Mega Bien, while Kamal empowers immigrant women to become entrepreneurs through food. At Same Café, guests pay what they can for healthy, sustainable meals. The city’s food scene is united by its compassion—and its booming craft beer culture.

In Sacramento, California’s capital leads the farm-to-fork revolution. We visit B&L and The Firehouse, where chefs source directly from local gardens like firefighter Kyle’s urban farm. At Kru, sushi is reimagined with hyperlocal ingredients like Sacramento-grown rice and shade truffles. We close with handcrafted sourdough pizza made with just-picked produce and generations-old technique.

Hartford, Connecticut is on the rise with a booming West Hartford food scene. We explore The Place 2 Be, a high-energy brunch spot built for social media, then shift to Mediterranean flavors at Zohara, and close with fine Italian cuisine at long-loved Bricco.

San Antonio blends heritage and heart. Local chefs honor their Tex-Mex roots while pushing culinary boundaries. From elevated tacos to flavorful fusion, this city’s food is full of spice, soul, and history.

Finally, in Newport, Rhode Island, we enjoy a catered gourmet picnic, dive into coastal eats and sample Rhode Island’s famous grilled pizza. From fresh seafood to chef-driven bistros, this seaside gem balances tradition and trend with every bite.

Whether it’s activism on a plate or pizza from a backyard garden, these cities prove that America’s food culture is about more than great taste—it’s about community, identity, and innovation.
