Well southdown sadly IN doesn't offer much for signature state food. But if you want to go through northern IN to Amish country Middlebury, IN has a huge Amish family style restaurant called Das Essenhaus. Welcome To Das Dutchman Essenhaus
If that food trips your trigger but don't want to travel that far up in our state give me a hollar! I will cook for your family the same kind of meal with homemade egg noodles, pie, bread and all! Served of course in a country farm kitchen and I will even wear my apron.

I had to download the breakfast menu...but have to admit was amused and not to many places you can go have "headcheese" on the menu, don't think I have ever seen that come to think of it....

I know! While they serve fried mush as well it sure tastes better than when I make it at home too. But! I can honestly say I will stand toe to toe with their egg noodles any day.

Thanks Jax, your offer is so kind and very tempting... another pin in the map! Amish menu looks interesting - what's baked steak?

Ok, southdown, you realize that once you've done this road trip, you're gonna have to post about all the places you stopped at and tell us what you ate, right? You can't just collect all these suggestions, head out and enjoy them all, and then not tell us about it. I'm looking forward to a comprehensive and drool-inducing series of reports in the next few months. Please don't disappoint us!

It usually is tenderized round steak browned & seasoned before smothered in brown gravy then slow baked. It is very tender a person could eat it without any teeth tender.
Their chicken is broasted, deep fried under pressure, it is the only chicken skin I will eat. Very crispy and flavorable.

Thanks for the info, interesting - never heard of broasted either! Sounds very good. This forum is certainly an education
Come by my home area of Lafayette, Louisiana to try some Cajun cooking. Poor Boys Riverside Inn is a hard to find place but it's well worth the trip. Tourist enjoy Prejean's Restaurant in my hometown of Carencro, north of Lafayette. If you come through during Mardi Gras you can have a King Cake. If it's cold, get a bowl of chicken and sausage Gumbo. Ask the locals where's the best place for boiled crawfish or boudin (looks like a sausage stuffed with ground pork, rice, and spices). Check the travel site to see if there's a food festival going on in the area at that time of your visit. Festivals around here have good food and good dancing music. There's a difference between New Orleans creole food and Cajun food. Difference is Cajun cooking is better.
