The past month took me to two very different cultures. First, I was in Kuwait in the Middle East, working on one of our company's children's edutainment projects, then in Qatar. And three days later, I was just north of Des Moines, Iowa, U.S., with our newest agritainment client, Center Grove Orchards.

The past month took me to two very different cultures. First, I was in Kuwait in the Middle East, working on one of our company’s children’s edutainment projects, then in Qatar. And three days later, I was just north of Des Moines, Iowa, U.S., with our newest agritainment client, Center Grove Orchards. That is one of the rewards of our work: I get to travel to many diverse cultures. Even in the U.S., cultures can vary widely. The culture in Iowa in America’s Heartland and corn country is much different than on the Eastern Shore of Maryland, home of the blue crab, or in the heart of the Amish country in Pennsylvania. Both are places I’ve visited during the past several months.

Suicide Bridge Restaurant

On the eastern shore of Maryland, I pigged out on crab cakes and steamed hard crabs. My restaurants of choice were Harrison’s Chesapeake House (www.chesapeakehouse.com/ inn.htm) on Tilghman Island (www.tilghmanisland.com/ ) , which is a true working waterman’s village, and Suicide Bridge Restaurant (www.suicidebridge.com/ ) , inland at Hurlock, Maryland, at Suicide Bridge on the Choptank River (en.wikipedia.org/ wiki/ Choptank_River) . Considering Suicide Bridge is only 21 feet (6.4 meters) above the river, I was a little perplexed by its name. You can read the legend of Suicide Bridge by clicking here (www.suicidebridge.com/ legend.html) .

Well, that’s enough of my food tourism adventures for now.

We hope you enjoy the 14 articles that follow.
