Victuals
We all need to eat! Restaurants are are not just for eating out, they are also for ceremonies and to take a trip in time. We’re focusing on those establishments that provide not just great food but historically and/or culturally rich educational experience. Guidebooks undertake painstaking research to find the restaurants through which a traveler may best experience the visiting city. TUSI also provides its Pioneers with the same exceptional experiences by taking them to their city’s culturally and historically significant restaurants; where they’ll be treated to authentic meals and informed about the culture and/or history of each establishment.
