A road trip isn't complete without the much-needed hunker down at a local food spot, and Atlanta food expert Skye Estroff is doing just that as the host of her new TV show "Foodie Road Trip."

On the itinerary are five Tybee Island restaurants: Huc-a-poos, North Beach Grill, Salt Island, Savannah Praline Company and Stingray's.

Produced by Picture Perfect Productions, an Atlanta-based motion picture production and post-production company, the six-episode season follows Estroff as she connects with locals and the owners, indulges in the coastal menus and gives background on the history of the Tybee Island spots. She also makes stops at Vidalia and Alpharetta, each location in Georgia a love letter to her grandparents and her childhood; she spent her summers in Tybee.

While showcasing the restaurants, the show also features recipes viewers can make in the comfort of their own homes.
