Tourism Dept. releases a map for foodies

Tourism officials mapped out a culinary trail that will feature the Mountain State’s top restaurants as selected by a team of chef ambassadors, including James Beard Award finalist Paul Smith. More than two dozen dining destinations are currently on the trail with plans to add more in the future. Charleston’s 10 Bridge restaurant is listed on the trail, along with The Peddler in Huntington and Tootsie’s Place in White Sulphur Springs. Checking in at a certain number of restaurants will allow diners to redeem prizes from the West Virginia Department of Tourism.
