As far as diversity:

1. Indian food: 35 minutes to Burlington
2. Thai food: Amazingly, only 10 miles to South Hero. A native Thai woman started a restaurant a couple of years ago, although she had to add American stuff to the menu to draw customers.
3. Vietnamese food: I could probably get it in Burlington--there is a large refugee population there, so the ethnic food possibilities are not bad.
4. Middle eastern: Again, Burlington, 35 minutes away.

But I admit, I do miss the diversity of New Jersey for sure. We had an ethnic restaurant on every corner. I could walk to Indian food, Asian fusion food, Vietnamese food, Japanese food, Chinese food, Italian food.
That isn’t bad, a 35 minute drive.

Here, Hermann is 85 miles from St Louis so not doable for one meal.

And is is very discouraging for me that the “big” town near Hermann which is 30 miles away seems to be all pizza and burger and bar food. Not even a white tablecloth Italian or American place. But I could be wrong about that, further exploration necessary.
