I lived there for 20 years. I went everywhere.
E: why the downvotes? I’ve literally been in every State, and have been all over the entire state of California, from Mono to Crescent City to Blythe. I was there twice last month and I’ll go back again soon. Compared to where I’ve lived like Boston and NYC CA is full of chain restaurants. Not as bad as TX or the South. Y’all need to get out more.
