Savouring your trip - advice on tasty treats not to miss!
Eating is one of the great pleasures of travelling. Trying the local food is a great way to get to know country - plus, you'll be able to say with absolute honesty: “Yes Mum, I am eating enough!”
Many of the programmes include meals, but when they don't, it's a great opportunity to hunt traditional fare for yourself.
Head for a restaurant (the more native diners inside the better), or, if you're a bit broke, go shopping for a picnic or the ingredients for a meal in your hostel.
Visiting local markets can be an experience in itself, and if you look particularly interested in what's being sold, the stall holders might let you sample a couple of things.
Street stalls are also a good bet if you're on the move. We've listed a few things to look out for in each country but you're sure to discover more.
