Great topic. and thanks for mentioning quick stops.
I’ll have to check out Newcastle. Also for snacks (fruit, nuts, etc.) are Pedrick Road Produce in Dixon and Ikeda’s at the Mace exit in Davis. Gas nearby. Neither have sandwiches like the Ikeda’s Auburn.
Chandos Tacos now has a Roseville location close to I-80
For a longer stop, Moody’s in Truckee is where we usually stop.
