Bruce Bilmes and Susan Boyle
Sue and Bruce met in college in the '70s. When they discovered Jane and Michael Stern's Roadfood late in that decade, they acquired a food passion to go with their passion for each other. Through the decades and pounds both passions are as strong as ever! They thrill to discovering, and writing about, out-of-the-way dining gems as much as they enjoy sampling the discoveries of others on Roadfood. Astrological signs: Sue is a Connecticut hot lobster roll and Bruce is a Pepe’s white clam pie.
