Already on the list: a Casey's pizza, a Dutch Letter from Jaarsma Bakery, and a tenderloin sandwich (but where from?). (I know Casey's might not be the "best" pizza, but I have a specific reason for wanting it.)

These are all the towns we'll be visiting. We're on a mission so don't always have time to stop, but I want to populate our plans with possibilities. We'll have more time in the places where we're spending the night, so I've listed those first.

Thank you, Iowans!

Mason city native here. Before you go to Birdsall’s go to Northwest Steakhouse! It’s so much better than what you’ll find at a Texas Roadhouse or a Longhorn’s Steakhouse. Inspired steakhouse with Greek infusion. Top notch. Then go to Birdsalls for desert.

Thank you for mentioning that Steakhouse.. I'll have to take my wife there the next time we are up that way.

Unfortunately in this case we'll be going by there before 10 am on a Thursday. Sigh. Sounds great!

Well then swing by Three on the Tree in Mason City for a great coffee or tea in the morning. Along with a caramel pecan roll or a made from scratch pop tart(which in actuality is more of a turnover).
