Guests come back for the meal that could only have happened in that room, in that season, on that night. That is the point Skift makes about travel, and it holds at every good American table, from a Naples dining room to a counter in Aspen. You can't ship that kind of dinner or copy it somewhere else. You have to come back for it, and most of us do.

The American Set on film — also on Instagram.

With reporting from Skift.
