Best Travel Destinations For Food Lovers
Do you sometimes plan holidays around what you want to eat? It’s time to reveal the best travel destinations for food lovers, who let their stomachs do the planning!
I’ll be the first to admit that part of the reason I went to Argentina last year was to eat steak and drink red wine. I’d also say that eating tacos was one of the greatest pleasures of my time in Mexico. And then there’s the pizza and pasta in Italy and the fab Asian food in Indonesia. Don’t get me started!
I love that travelling isn’t just about ticking countries off and checking out a few landmarks. It’s about getting to know the culture, venturing out of your comfort zone and coming back with a heap of great stories. For me, the food has always been a huge element, so if you’re starting to plan your travels for 2017, here are a few culinary gems I’d recommend around the world.
Best Travel Destinations For Food Lovers: Argentina
I mentioned that part of the reason I headed to Argentina last year was for the steak and Malbec! Wine tasting in the Uco Valley (near Mendoza) was an amazing experience, with beautiful vineyards flanked by the snow-capped Andes. When it comes to Argentine cooking, it’s all about simplicity.
Barcelona’s Top New Restaurants For 2017
Barcelona’s top new restaurants for 2017 include three-Michelin-starred dining, a culinary amusement park and an eatery by one of the world’s most famous footballers.
Recently I wrote about the top food experiences worth travelling the world for. Topping that list was a restaurant called Disfrutar in Barcelona – a place where I believe I’ve eaten two of the best meals of my life! But does it face competition? New restaurants are popping up in the city all the time. With plenty of great new openings for 2017, perhaps it’s time I returned to eat my way around the city!
So whether you’re looking for high-end gourmet creations, a casual bite to eat, or something a little bit quirky, here are Barcelona’s top new restaurants for 2017.
7 Surprising And Unique Places To Eat
When it comes to unique places to eat, the jury is out! There are so many incredible spots around the world. If you’re looking for gourmet food in fascinating destinations – it’s time to reveal which restaurants are really worth the air fare.
We travel, we eat, we travel some more. Sometimes though, we travel specifically to eat! We excite our taste buds with new flavours, learn about spices, herbs and unique cooking techniques. We return home with photos not just of stunning landscapes, but also beautifully presented plates of food.
While I’m just as happy in a buzzy food market as in a Michelin starred restaurant, there are a few meals from my travels that would make me hop straight back on the next plane…
Disfrutar
Location: Barcelona, Spain
Without a doubt, this is my favourite restaurant in the world! Dishes are creative, colourful, and served with a touch of magic. Things aren’t always what they seem, whether that’s an exploding liquid-filled olive or ceviche transformed into ice cream. Service is attentive but relaxed and the buzz of the open kitchen spreads throughout the dining area. Two visits and one Michelin star later, I’m already contemplating returning for a third time.
