This post will show you three of the world’s favorite delicious destinations all over the world, some will surprise you!
What do you look for when you’re choosing a vacation destination? Is it somewhere with white beaches and crystal blue waters where you can take a swim and relax in the sun?
Or maybe it’s a city with a rich history and some incredible architecture to admire?
If you’re like most people, one of the best things about traveling to a new country is having the chance to sample the local cuisine and try some incredible food and drink that you can’t get hold of at home.
If that sounds like you, these delicious destinations need to be on your bucket list.
Delicious Destination #1: Napa Valley, California
When you think of world-class wine, France is probably the first place that springs to mind. If you’re big into your wine then you do need to visit France at least once, but Napa Valley in California still has plenty to offer.
If you travel to wine country in California, you’ll find some incredible vineyards producing the grapes that go into some of the best wines in the world. This region produces more wine than any other place in the United States and while you’re there, you can see exactly how they make it all.
More importantly, you’ll get to sample a load of them and even buy some bottles for yourself. Napa Valley is an absolute must for any wine aficionados.
Delicious Destination #2: Istria, Croatia
Croatia isn’t a country that is widely known for its culinary prowess but this small European country has a lot to offer. Perhaps it’s often overlooked because it’s close to the better-known food destinations like Italy.
The region of Istra is on the border of Italy and Slovenia and the culinary scene there combines flavours and ingredients from all 3 countries. There is a strong focus on good quality cured meats and cheeses as well as some delicious dishes made with locally sourced seafood.
You can wash it down with some of the incredible local beers or fruit spirits that are popular around Europe.
Delicious Destination #3: Munich, Germany
You’ve probably already built a picture of what the food in Germany is like; big Bratwurst and delicious beer. You will find those things in Munich but the food scene has far more to offer than that.
Like Croatia, Germany focuses on meats and cheeses so a good board of cold cuts is always a safe choice. You should try some incredible staples of German cuisine, some that are probably familiar to you because they’ve since been exported around the world.
Potato salad is a fairly unexciting dish for us at home but if you head over to Munich and have the traditional German version, you’ll be blown away. It goes great with another mainstay of German cooking, the Schnitzel. Usually made with veal but sometimes with pork, this flattened cut of meat covered in breadcrumbs and fried is to die for.
If you’re looking for an amazing snack, you’re in the right place; Germany is home to the original pretzel, the perfect accompaniment to a nice glass of beer.
These are three of the best delicious destinations in the world to find amazing food and drink on your travels.
