Local Cuisine

Contents

Trying new food while travelling is a must. What is their local delicacy? It’s always worth a try. Some of the best foods I have ever experienced have come from trying the local cuisine.

Tacos and churros in Mexico, sardines and pastel de nata in Portugal and croissants and macaron in France just to name a few. Those are the well known favourites in these countries but when I need help figuring out what to eat, I often ask the waiter what their favourite meal on the menu. I often order that if it fits my dietary needs.

Sometimes I’m pleasantly surprised and sometimes I’m not convinced, but either way it’s an adventure and I don’t starve.
