"Food tourism is increasing in popularity. Would you travel to a country or city just to eat? What food should people travel to your country just to try and enjoy?"
I have not done that yet. I do not want to go to an specific place only to eat. I think food could be a plus if you would like to visit a country. I think one of the most famous food where people travel only to eat is France, Rome, Mexico. Of cours those places have more touristic attraction that capture the tourist's interest.
ReplyDeleteI will recommend people from all parts of the world to come to Mexico and try the original beef tacos because they are so delicious. the come with two tortillas a big piece of meat salsa and a piece of cactus. You can buy them in a normal stan, some people would call these little restaurants a hole in the wall.
ReplyDeleteYes, I would travel to a country or city just to eat. Because I believe that ethnic cousine or special dish of a country tastes uniquely only when you travel there and eat there. Even though people adopt a dish from a different country, it will never be the same. For example, "Boodog" is one of the Mongolian delicious cousines. You should taste this food in Mongolia. Because the meat tastes differently in Mongolia.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure if I'd travel to another country just to eat, but if to another city. For example, a food that I really enjoy is Thai food. I liked to travel to Salt Lake City just to eat in "Sawadee" restaurant that is located in the South Temple and has the best Thai food in Utah county. It's so delicious!!!, so I think food tourism will increase in popularity around the world.
ReplyDeleteI have traveled to another city in China just to eat, but I wouldn't do it to another country. I think perhaps some people travel to China just to try and enjoy Chinese food. There are too many varieties of Chinese food, so it is difficult to say exactly which food they want.
ReplyDeleteIf I have chance to go somewhere to food tourism, I would like to go to Chicago in Illinois. I heard from my professor that there is the world biggest expo about food businesses in May. I don’t know the exactly name, but I really want to go there. He said if you go there, you could research about food businesses and eat a lot of food for free. If I go there, I will eat all of the food.
ReplyDeleteI remember I went to Qingdao, Shandong just for the seafood there.Of course, Qingdao is very pretty City, too. I think Qongqing is a good place for eating because it is famous for the spicy food, especially hotpot.
ReplyDeleteI visited Paris last April, so I know how important is the food tourism in this wonderful city. This article is about food turism in Paris which is the chocolate world capital.
ReplyDeleteAbout me, I would not to make a trip to another country only just to it. However, I love to visit new cities and countries. A good idea would be to make a trip, and in the same time, to try new types of cuisine. If someone wants to travel to Spain, I recommend trying "cocido madrileño" and a piece of delicious "turrón".

I had never been to a city just to eat, and I am not planning to do that either. Food is very important in the tourism industry. It is interesting to try new meal, and I always do that when I'm traveling. I would recommend everyone who will travel to Haiti to try our famous ''Griot, banann peze, pikliz''. Please don't ask me for the recipe. Just ask for it, and I promise you will enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI think I'll never go to a country just for the food, it should be for something more. But if I'm traveling I always ask for their famous dishes. I like to taste new recipes and the popular food of that country. I would recommend to those who go to Chile to try are Empanadas and pastel the Choclo. IF something taste good is that!

When I was in my city I used to eat in Ecuator, six hours driving. But, travel to France just to eat, no. I would travel to Peru to eat Cebiche or Lomo Saltado, I would waste all my money to eat that.
ReplyDeleteNo, I would not travel to another place just to eat something, I think it is not worth it. There are lots of foods from Brazil that people should try, but I think feijoada with farofa it is a good choice.
ReplyDeleteThis article talk about the chocolate sold in Paris. Some people travle to another country to enjoy eating. I have never gone to another country to eat something. However, if I make a plan to travle Paris, I will also plan to eat chocolate. In addition, I don't think people come to Korea for only eating something.

If I have a lot of extra money to travel, Why not? I will travel to enjoy the food in that country. If you go to my country Colombia, you will enjoy "Bandeja Paisa" if you like beans, or "Sancocho de Gallina" if you prefer soups.
ReplyDeleteI would love to travel to Europe for their food and visit their cities. My wife often tells me how beautiful France and Italy are so on, so my wife and I have a " ten" year plan to visit Europe together. I hope people visit my country Taiwan because there are a lot beautiful places and tradition food. Randy Lin
