On the way from Washington, DC to Charlottesville in western part of Virginia I stopped in the 29er Restaurant & Tavern in Ruckersville along US-29 (just north of US-33 intersection) and it was the worst choice during my US travels. The food (chicken and tossed salad) served there at very low price was not fresh and uneatable... never stop there. I am sorry that it happened to me just in Virginia... the state where - except that one time - I had probably the best food in the USA.

After this meal partly eaten I had to go for coffee in Shell gas station. Surely quality of coffee sold to plastic mugs in gas stations is not the best but not that bad, I liked it.
I learned in the USA to drink coffee and drive :-) and found it very practical and fast. Well, many gas stations in Poland don't offer those plastic mugs (and never so large) to use while driving and it's more popular to seat by a table to drink coffee in Europe.

Warning for first coming to the USA:
small mug in the USA is the largest one in Europe, the large one is like large family cup :-), say for 10 or more Europeans cups of coffee. Coffee in gas stations is inexpensive, on that Shell station it cost: $0.69, $0.89, and $1.18 for the largest mug.
