Jaunted.com is probably known by few outside the Travel PR/Communications industry, but it’s this great blog that’s now operated/published by CondéNet (FYI, CondéNet = credibility…most of the time at least). It’s basically a “pop culture travel guide for globetrotters, business road dogs, and arm chair travelers who are too harried to sit down with a traditional travel guide, or wait for a monthly travel magazine.”
Even better, they provide hilarious travel-related coverage of celebrities’ whereabouts and misfortunes (like Mary-Kate Olsen caught on her way to Milan Fashion Week with “oversized and understyled luggage” i.e. a worn out duffel bag (who woulda thunk it…a fashion “mogul” with hideous travel gear).
Anyway, I digress…Jaunted.com has created a Recession-Restaurants-Map, which shows places where you can still grab a relatively tasty meal for a reasonable price. The map is in progress, so it’s not as extensive as maybe one would prefer (ok, there are three listings) but, hey, it’s a start.
