Whether you’re a risk-taker who enjoys sampling unfamiliar cuisine or you prefer to stick with ingredients you know, food is an essential part of any travel experience. Some destinations, like New York, Paris, and Rome, have well-established reputations as gastronomic hotspots, but that doesn’t mean that good food can’t be found elsewhere. In fact, there are plenty of lesser-known destinations that can give these cities a run for their money. Read on to learn more about our favorite underrated food destinations.

Oaxaca, Mexico

In the mountains of southern Mexico, Oaxaca offers food-loving travelers the opportunity to sample a lesser-known side of Mexican cuisine. The city’s rich culinary heritage is shaped largely by native ingredients such as corn, beans, and fresh herbs, with many dishes prepared using traditional smoking methods. Most popular among them is mole, a spicy sauce made with seeds, nuts, and sometimes even chocolate, ground together and served over meat and tamales.

Chengdu, China

While Beijing and Shanghai tend to steal the culinary spotlight, Chengdu sits quietly in China’s Sichuan province as a secret haven for spice enthusiasts. As local tradition dictates using liberal amounts of garlic, chili, and the indigenous Sichuan pepper in most dishes, cuisine in the region is flavorful and bold, with meats and rice typically serving as a base. Try some authentic Kung Pao chicken, or stick with hot and sour noodles for a vegetarian option.

Porto, Portugal

When it comes to food destinations in Europe, Italy and France reign supreme, but Portugal can also certainly hold its own. Porto, in particular, has a unique gastronomic charm influenced heavily by the city’s position along the Atlantic coast. Fresh seafood and wine serve as staples within the local dining culture, with hearty soups and sandwiches filling in some of the more casual gaps. One of our favorites is Francesinha, a sandwich of toasted bread and cured meats, topped with melted cheese and a ladle of spiced tomato broth.

If there’s one thing France is known for, it’s food. And while it’s true that the country holds a certain prestige when it comes to fine dining and haute cuisine, you don’t have to spend big bucks at a Michelin Star restaurant to experience the pleasures of French cooking. Street food also plays a key role in the landscape of traditional French gastronomy, albeit at a much more affordable price point. Read on to learn more about some of the best street foods to try on your next trip to France.

Galette-Saucisse

Tourists in France’s northwest region of Brittany should be sure to try the galette-saucisse, a simple yet satisfying snack made from a grilled pork sausage wrapped in a buckwheat pancake. In addition to being a popular street food, locals often enjoy it during football games and other outdoor events.

Socca

Originating from the coastal city of Nice, socca is a type of chickpea flour pancake traditionally seasoned with olive oil and black pepper. With a light and crispy texture and simple ingredient list, socca reflects the Mediterranean influence on Niçoise cuisine and is perfect for gluten-free travelers in search of a quick bite or light meal.

Crêpes

No list of French street foods would be complete without crêpes, the iconic thin pancakes that serve as a staple of Parisian cuisine. Made with a simple batter of flour, eggs, and milk, crêpes can be enjoyed as either sweet or savory depending on the other ingredients they’re served with. Try veggies and cheese for a flavorful snack, or berries and Nutella for dessert.

From its jazz music to its spicy cuisine and the world-famous Mardi Gras parades, New Orleans exhibits a rich culture that differs from any other city, both in the United States and abroad. So, if you’re in search of delicious food, buzzing nightlife, and unforgettable parties, then here are cultural hotspots in New Orleans that you won’t want to miss.

French Quarter

Still strong with the influence of the city’s French inhabitants, Vieux Carré is the oldest neighborhood in New Orleans. Built in 1718 the French Quarter is filled with Cajun restaurants, jazz clubs, cocktail bars, and colorful buildings with cast-iron balconies. You may even be lucky enough to catch one of the neighborhood’s jazz parades.

Preservation Hall

Since the 1950s, Preservation Hall has been home to some of the most talented Jazz artists that New Orleans has to offer. This music hall hosts jazz concerts on an almost nightly basis, providing visitors with an authentic taste of New Orleans-style jazz.

Café Du Monde

Since 1862, this coffee shop has been a staple of New Orleans locals and visitors alike. Café Du Monde offers a range of local delights, including cafe au lait and fresh beignets. What’s more, it’s open 24/7, meaning that you can pop by anytime to get your fix.

Is there anything more satisfying than a perfectly cooked piece of crust covered in warm gooey cheese and your favorite toppings? Pizza recipes around the world may be similar but somehow there are some places that stand out for their iconic pizza styles. If you’re looking to spoil your taste buds, here are some ideas of where to go. 

Naples, Italy

Naples is the birthplace of pizza and a must-visit for any serious pizza enthusiast. Neapolitan pizza has a thin, soft, and slightly charred crust. Fun fact: Naples is also where the Margherita pizza, with its simple and delicious combination of tomato, mozzarella, fresh basil, and olive oil, was created. 

São Paulo, Brazil

If you’re looking to expand your pizza pallet, São Paulo is the place to go. Here you’ll find some of the most unusual pizza options like chocolate and strawberries. It’s a city with no limits when it comes to pizza and creativity. 

Chicago, USA

If you’ve never had an original slice of Chicago deep-dish pizza, this is a must-add item for your pizza bucket list. Unlike the Napels crust, the Chicago pizza has a thick, buttery crust. The cheese is layered thick over chunky tomato sauce and you can choose your favorite toppings.

One of the best ways to learn about a new place is through its food. Each city has its own culinary fingerprint and part of the travel experience is getting to taste as you go. But how do you decide what’s worth tasting?

Avoid the Tourist Traps

Some places cater specifically for visitors with grand décor and a menu that comes in various languages, but a local would never be caught dead in there. These are the ones to stay far away from. Their food is often overpriced and not as authentic as a smaller, humbler joint that is committed to making good food as opposed to attracting tourists.

Local Knows Best

Trust us, the people on the street will be your best bet when it comes to finding somewhere fabulous to eat. Ask passers-by, taxi drivers, shopkeepers, and hotel staff which are their favorite spots. You’ll know it’s good if the place is bustling with locals. 

Blog About It

Social media is filled with food influencers and bloggers who spend their time seeking out the best places to dine. Take a digital journey through Instagram and indulge in the real photographs of the dishes that you need to sink your teeth into.

This market is open from 08:00 until 15:00 except for Sunday when it remains open until 17:00.

Pretty much everybody looks forward to eating exciting, new local foods when they travel, but if you’re a foodie you live for it, planning out which street foods to try and restaurants to visit as your main attraction. Who needs museums, anyway? If that sounds like you, then here are some cities you absolutely have to visit.

Oaxaca, Mexico

Oaxaca is the birthplace of mezcal, but it’s also got a food culture that isn’t to be missed. It’s the best place to visit if you like to cross traditional cuisine with modern cooking, which is exactly what you can expect in Oaxaca.

Bologna, Italy

With a name like Bologna, you already know that this city has plenty of food to offer, though it’s much better than your school lunch meat. So go ahead, eat your weight in pasta. Seriously, you won’t regret it.

Must-haves while you’re there: mortadella, tortellini, parmigiano reggiano, and balsamic di modena.

Kavita Favelle has found a way of marrying two of her biggest passions—food and travel—into one platform. Her blog Kavey Eats focuses on enjoying life, with the caption “the belly rules the mind” welcoming her many followers. Born in London, for the past 25 years Favelle has been traveling alongside her husband Pete, both locally and internationally, as the two document their food experiences online.

Established in 2009, Kavey Eats offers anything from restaurant reviews and travel tips to detailed recipes, meaning you’re covered. “At the start I used to write about home cooking, restaurant reviews, reviews of kitchen appliances, cookery classes and books,” recalled the seasoned blogger in an interview with Perlu. “And I still do all that, but before too long I started introducing the travel content as well.”

According to Favelle, on the travel side, she enjoys writing about culture, cuisine, and history. “So as well as the usual what to see, what to do, where to stay. I really like to put it into context, so that’s my interest in the travel side,” she notes. Some of her international trips include places like Argentina, Ecuador, Iceland, India, Japan, Lebanon, Morocco, and two journeys to Antarctica, which she describes as “utterly magical”.

“Antarctica is the most incredible place,” says the blogger. “It really is a trip-of-a-lifetime type of a place”. According to Favelle, what makes it so special is the combination of the fact that it’s so remote, the scenery, and the penguins. “There is nothing like it that I’ve ever experienced anywhere else.”

When it comes to food, she shares recipes, restaurant reviews, cookbooks, and even cooking classes. “When I started back in 2009, there actually weren’t that many of us writing blogs,” says Favelle. “And I was very fortunate to become part of a small community of bloggers that were approached by the food and drink and restaurant PRs in our area in London on a regular basis. It probably took a little more time for my travel content to become known.”

A freelance Business Analyst, Favelle treats blogging as a side job and has also written professionally, contributing over 40 food and travel articles to a luxury food and travel print magazine as well as content for the websites of partner brands. “I love working with brands and trust boards and organizations on bespoke content,” she notes.

If you’re a food traveler who likes nothing more than discovering novel and little known dishes around the world, then you need to pay Germany a visit. Not as well known around the world as French, Italian or Spanish food, German cuisine has a good claim to be higher up the list.

Here are 5 dishes that you should be sure to sample on your visit to Germany.

Wurst

Germany is probably best known for its sausages. There are over 1500 varieties of sausage in Germany, each with its own unique blend of meats, herbs and spices.

Rouladen

This meaty feast is made from a mix of bacon, mustard, pickles and herbs wrapped in thinly sliced beef or veal.

Apfelstrudel

Flakey buttery pastry filled with apples, cinnamon, sugar, and raisins. Delicious! It is often served with a coating of icing sugar or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Königsberger Klopse

These German meatballs are served with boiled or roasted potatoes and a creamy white sauce. The meatballs are filled with onions, potatoes, eggs, capers, and a variety of herbs and spices for added punch.

Kartoffelpuffer

A little like Germany’s answer to the onion bhaji, they are shallow pan-fried grated potato mixed with flour, egg, onion, and a mixture of aromatic herbs. You can serve them with either sweet or savory toppings.

Pretty much everybody looks forward to eating exciting, new local foods when they travel, but if you’re a foodie you live for it, planning out which street foods to try and restaurants to visit as your main attraction. Who needs museums, anyway? If that sounds like you, then here are some cities you absolutely have to visit.

Oaxaca, Mexico

Oaxaca is the birthplace of mezcal, but it’s also got a food culture that isn’t to be missed. It’s the best place to visit if you like to cross traditional cuisine with modern cooking, which is exactly what you can expect in Oaxaca.

Must-haves while you’re there: gai tod, moo ping, sweet potato balls, and crispy pancake.

Bologna, Italy

With a name like Bologna, you already know that this city has plenty of food to offer, though it’s much better than your school lunch meat. So go ahead, eat your weight in pasta. Seriously, you won’t regret it.

Must-haves while you’re there: mortadella, tortellini, parmigiano reggiano, and balsamic di modena.

Kavita Favelle has found a way of marrying two of her biggest passions—food and travel—into one platform. Her blog Kavey Eats focuses on enjoying life, with the caption “the belly rules the mind” welcoming her many followers. Born in London, for the past 25 years Favelle has been traveling alongside her husband Pete, both locally and internationally, as the two document their food experiences online.

Established in 2009, Kavey Eats offers anything from restaurant reviews and travel tips to detailed recipes, meaning you’re covered. “At the start I used to write about home cooking, restaurant reviews, reviews of kitchen appliances, cookery classes and books,” recalled the seasoned blogger in an interview with Perlu. “And I still do all that, but before too long I started introducing the travel content as well.”

According to Favelle, on the travel side, she enjoys writing about culture, cuisine, and history. “So as well as the usual what to see, what to do, where to stay. I really like to put it into context, so that’s my interest in the travel side,” she notes. Some of her international trips include places like Argentina, Ecuador, Iceland, India, Japan, Lebanon, Morocco, and two journeys to Antarctica, which she describes as “utterly magical”.

“Antarctica is the most incredible place,” says the blogger. “It really is a trip-of-a-lifetime type of a place”. According to Favelle, what makes it so special is the combination of the fact that it’s so remote, the scenery, and the penguins. “There is nothing like it that I’ve ever experienced anywhere else.”

When it comes to food, she shares recipes, restaurant reviews, cookbooks, and even cooking classes. “When I started back in 2009, there actually weren’t that many of us writing blogs,” says Favelle. “And I was very fortunate to become part of a small community of bloggers that were approached by the food and drink and restaurant PRs in our area in London on a regular basis. It probably took a little more time for my travel content to become known.”

A freelance Business Analyst, Favelle treats blogging as a side job and has also written professionally, contributing over 40 food and travel articles to a luxury food and travel print magazine as well as content for the websites of partner brands. “I love working with brands and trust boards and organizations on bespoke content,” she notes.

If you’re a food traveler who likes nothing more than discovering novel and little known dishes around the world, then you need to pay Germany a visit. Not as well known around the world as French, Italian or Spanish food, German cuisine has a good claim to be higher up the list.

Here are 5 dishes that you should be sure to sample on your visit to Germany.

Wurst

Germany is probably best known for its sausages. There are over 1500 varieties of sausage in Germany, each with its own unique blend of meats, herbs and spices.

Rouladen

This meaty feast is made from a mix of bacon, mustard, pickles and herbs wrapped in thinly sliced beef or veal.

Apfelstrudel

Flakey buttery pastry filled with apples, cinnamon, sugar, and raisins. Delicious! It is often served with a coating of icing sugar or a dusting of powdered sugar.

Königsberger Klopse

These German meatballs are served with boiled or roasted potatoes and a creamy white sauce. The meatballs are filled with onions, potatoes, eggs, capers, and a variety of herbs and spices for added punch.

Kartoffelpuffer

A little like Germany’s answer to the onion bhaji, they are shallow pan-fried grated potato mixed with flour, egg, onion, and a mixture of aromatic herbs. You can serve them with either sweet or savory toppings.
