This year marks the 100th anniversary of America’s National Park Service. Celebrate the century mark by hooking into a trophy at one of these six road-trip-worthy park destinations.
Bass and tacos—both are emblematic of central Texas, where big largemouths swim in the region’s many lakes and homespun taquerias stand at seemingly every corner. To find the best, I grabbed food blogger and local taco expert José R. Ralat to serve as my copilot on this grande gustatorial adventure.
Because junk food on a road trip is a rite of passage.
