Question: Hi Kate, My fiance and I are thinking about doing a food-based trip for our honeymoon. Do you have any suggestions? Thnx
Answer:
Food Tourism is becoming increasingly popular and it is no surprise. One of the best parts of traveling abroad is enjoying the local cuisine. (I still fondly recall a raspberry pastry I ate in France almost a decade ago!). There are many different kinds of culinary adventures to choose from, but here is a quick list of options to get you started.
- Interested in going to India and/or Malaysia to taste a wide range of vegetarian foods? Check out the vegetarian culinary tours offered by Veg Voyages.
- Want to participate in a cooking workshop where you learn to prepare local delicacies? Consider a hands-on culinary adventure with The International Kitchen.
- Do you and your spouse want to go on a more activity-based trip, like skiing in Europe or cycling in England but want specialty diet foods along the way? Check out the vegetarian organic food vacations offered by Vegetarian Vacations.
- Want to stay closer to home? Why not try a culinary/yoga retreat with the Conscious Gourmet and learn to prepare vegetarian, low-carb, or raw foods - or sign up for a several day workshop in Colorado with A Cooks Kitchen.
You can also do what my husband and I did and find a one day workshop in almost any country or major city with the help of google. It is a nice way to spend a day of your vacation!
