Spanish food doesn't really exist as one cuisine — it's a patchwork of regional traditions shaped by geography, history, and centuries of local pride. Ask someone from the Basque Country and someone from Andalusia what "Spanish food" means, and you'll get two very different answers. For travelers who want to plan a trip around eating well, understanding that regional split matters more than any single restaurant recommendation.

When I lived in New York City many years ago, every so often I would take the subway down to the East Village and for a rib-sticking repast at a Ukrainian restaurant called Veselka, founded in 1954 in what was then Little Ukraine. It was always a treat, but when I mentioned it to friends and family, they would often assume Ukrainian cuisine was pretty much the same as Russian. But in fact it´s one of Europe’s richest and most distinctive culinary traditions — hearty yet nuanced, deepl
Not only the Middle East´s most popular cuisine but its most popular ambassador across the world at large - from Europe and the Americas to Asia and Australia - al-matbakh al-lubnānī, la cuisine libanaise has become shorthand for freshness, conviviality, and that enviable trick of seeming both generous and healthy at the same time.

The Adriatic Sea coastline is a beautiful sailing destination, but also a living tapestry of history, culture, food, and traditions shaped by centuries of seafarers, fishermen, and island communities. When you sail Croatia, you experience the coast the way locals do: slowly, intentionally, and with respect for nature and heritage. This guide can bring you closer to the authentic Adriatic, from Dalmatian flavors and fishing traditions to ancient stone towns, local wines, and ti
Italy is famously packed with glorious cities to explore, which means a magical spot like Bari – which would be a headliner in many other countries – here tends to be overshadowed by the likes of Rome, Florence, Venice, its fellow southern-Italian destination Naples, and even neighbouring Apulia (Puglia) region gem Lecce. But to miss out on Apulia’s capital – astride the Adriatic Sea right on the heel of Italy’s famous boot shape – would be a shame for reasons I’m about to go into. And t
Sadly, I´ve not yet been to Senegal, but I have had the pleasure of enjoying its cuisine on various occasions during my visits to Paris, home to dozens of Senegalese restaurants like the highly rated Chez Zeyna, Le Khelkom, Les Marmites de Fa, and Le Sunugal.

Proteins range from chicken, beef, and goat to smoked or fresh fish and seafood. Spicing tends to be deep and aromatic rather than fiery, using ginger, garlic, onions, c

Stepping off the plane in capital Kingston earlier this year, I was immediately greeted by a symphony of sounds: reggae beats drifting from open-air cafes, the chatter of street vendors, and the distant buzz of traffic weaving through the city. The colors of murals, tropical flowers, and painted storefronts created a kaleidoscope that dazzled the senses. The air smelled of salt, spices, and something uniquely Jamaican, a promise of adventure waiting to unfold.

Over the years, through my one trip to Haiti and various visits to Haitian restaurants in the United States (especially here in Chicago, as well as New York City and Miami, like the fantastically colorful but now sadly defunct Tap Tap), I have come to greatly appreciate the cuisine that is a wonderful, soulful fusion of this country´s Indigenous Taíno roots, French colonial history, African traditions, and the creativity of a put upon but resilient people.

Most travelers have heard of the U.S. Virgin Islands; some of the British Virgin Islands. Those familiar with the BVI usually know Tortola, and maybe even Virgin Gorda and Jost Van Dyke. But it seems that few have ever heard of Anegada. Which is a shame because it has so much to recommend it.
For starters, the northernmost of the BVI - a mere 15 square miles and with a population of just 450, a 45-minute ferry ride from Tortola - boasts multiple beautiful beaches with so
