Lee Wilson, editor-in chief of WHERE THE LOCALS EAT, expects that this newly-researched second edition of the guide will be even more popular than the first edition. "We expect that WHERE THE LOCALS EAT will become indispensable to both business and vacation travelers," she says. "There are other restaurant guides, but most of them don't take into account that people travel to cities smaller than New York and Los Angeles. Other guides are geared more toward the gourmet in search of the ultimate escargot experience than the average traveler caught in an unfamiliar city overnight. And, whatever they say, those "dining guides" you find in pricey hotel rooms are sometimes no more useful than the Yellow Pages -- what a coincidence that every restaurant listed in these slick publications is also the subject of a nice, big ad!"

She adds, "Several corporations have bought WHERE THE LOCALS EAT for every member of their sales department. We've heard from a lot of people that they plan to keep it in their car, and we know that it is a fixture on the tour buses of several country-music stars."
