{For the month of April I will be blogging alphabetically on the topic of travel tips.}

That made me hungry. There are very few things I'm not willing to try (bugs, blood, anything still alive, anything I have to pick to die...). But people who don't try new things in new areas confuse me. I may work in a chain restaurant (as of today!) but I darn sure won't eat at one while traveling!
ReplyDeleteI know, right? Food is so cultural. A major part of the travel experience.
DeleteSo many delicious dishes! My boyfriend and I both love to try new foods when traveling and really consider it an attraction in itself. Great post!
ReplyDeleteSo true. We try to do our food research. :)
DeleteMy best travel experiences are usually food-related. I'm half-Filipino, but I personally haven't tried Balut. Can't do it.
ReplyDeleteBut, that Korean hot pot you pictured? I want that right now.
Food really can be memorable. Balut sure is! :P
DeleteYum! Well, all except the balut - you are braver than me! Thai and Italy are hard to beat for food, aren't they?

I want to agree with you on Thai and Italian but then I think about all the other cultures with amazing dishes and I get overwhelmed! :P
DeleteFood is definitely one of the reasons I travel. I really want to eat the Lechon pig! Yum!
ReplyDeleteThe world is a tasty place!
