Part of the secret of success in life is to eat what you like and let the food fight it out inside ~ Mark Twain.

Do you eat to live or live to eat? I guess most of us live to eat, we are foodies! The pleasure of savouring delicious cuisines is indescribable; it can only be experienced first-hand. Remember the movie ‘Julie & Julia’? It featured the character Julie Powell (Amy Adams) who was passionate about cooking and writing. To add excitement to her mundane life, she decides to try every recipe from the book ‘Mastering the Art of French Cooking’ written by Julia Child (Meryl Streep), and then blogs on her cooking experiences. This clearly indicates that the joy is not just limited to consuming tasty meals but also creating one.

Your travel experience is incomplete without feasting on the local delicacies of the place. We bring you some of the mouth-watering cuisines from across the globe which you must try out for a good burp and still desire for more!
