Palermo is famous for its street food. Cheap and simple, street food in Palermo is a delicious way to try lots of local specialities as you explore the markets. However, it can be a little intimidating to know what to choose and where to get it from, so I was thrilled when Palermo Street Food offered to take me on one of their tours to show me what was what. I had a complimentary guided tour courtesy of Palermo Street…
Food, glorious food. Food in Lisbon is amazing, and although Portuguese cuisine is not as well known as it’s Spanish neighbour, the flavours, produce and local dishes available here are good enough to rival any top foodie destination. To learn more about the food in Portugal and where to eat the best food in Lisbon, I contacted Taste of Lisboa to see if I could join one of their cultural food tours in Lisbon. They suggested their Downtown-Mouraria Food and…
So, you’re wondering where to eat in Lagos Portugal? There is no shortage of good restaurants in Lagos, that’s true, but sometimes it is hard to sort the good from the bad and the excellent! As you probably know by now, I adore taking food tours as they are so much more than just a meal. Bearing all this in mind, I contacted Eat Drink Discover Algarve Food Tours and was thrilled when they invited me to join their food…
Eating local food and drink when you travel is one of the best ways to understand more about the culture and the people of the place you are visiting. How could you not try fish and chips in England or tacos in Mexico? However, how you find the best local food isn’t always easy – especially in popular tourist destinations. Try some of these fabulous foodie experiences to help you taste the very best of a region. If you are…
Oh food how I love thee, let me count the ways… well, I won’t count them all, but trust me, there are many! I’ve tried a food tour in Prague, a cooking class in Mexico City, a combination of both in Bogota, and even when I’m in my home country of England I love trying local specialities and finding the best places to chow down on different dishes and familiar favourites. When I was in my own capital city of…
Food, glorious food. That is what I base most of my travel activities on, I admit. From a cooking class in Mexico City to a food tour in Berlin and Kriol cooking in Belize I love to try local food. I didn’t really know what to expect from Czech cuisine, but when I was planning a visit to Prague in the Czech Republic I wanted to learn more about Czech food and drink so looked up food tours in Prague. …
As you probably know by now, I love taking food tours. All over the world, I explore a destination through its food, on a food tour in Mexico City, a farmers’ market tour & cooking class in Bogota, and a chocolate making workshop in Belize, among others! The downside with guided tours is they can be expensive for budget travellers, so when I heard about the self-guided food tours from Bitemojo I wanted to give it a try. As soon…
Another city, another food tour! Everywhere I go I love to try the local food and drink, and explore areas I wouldn’t normally discover by myself. From chocolate making in Belize to a taco and street food tour in Mexico City, most of my travels revolve around food! Berlin was no exception to this. I must admit, I wasn’t very familiar with German food, so wanted to try some traditional dishes whilst learning more about Berlin’s own fusion of cuisine,…
Bogota certainly wasn’t my favourite stop in Colombia. Compared to the rest of this beautiful country, Bogota is busy, dirty, and the traffic is always horrendous, However, I was pleasantly surprised to find there were more than enough things to do in Bogota keep me occupied for a few days before I took my flight back to Mexico. For me, to really understand a country, you have to visit its capital. Backpacking Bogota does have its rewards, so give Bogota…
You must be realising by now that I am a huge food fan. Everywhere I visit I am trying to take as many cooking classes and food tours as possible, from a tapas tour in Barcelona to a cooking class in Mexico City, and learning how to make chocolate in Belize, I am always on the lookout for food related activities! When I was trying to decide what to do in Bogota, there weren’t many options for a cooking class or…
