In Maine: Sarah's Cafe, Brass Compass, Ebb Tide, Camden Deli
In Chicagoland: the buffalo grill at the Zoo. I had a buffalo burger.

In Milwaukee(ish): Milwaukee's Public Market, Kopp's

In Clinton County:
There's this pizza place I went to. I will get the name later.

St. Louis:
The Casino Queen buffet. What? It counts.
