We can easy do without drugs like alcohol, whereas good food is important to us. In times past, we most notably stuck to Asia’s exotic dishes and France’s creative haute cuisine. Though, thanks to globalization, nowadays you can find fine food almost throughout the world, if you look for it. More and more countries evolve from fast-food hells to genuine gourmet destinations. On this page, we invite you in pictures to a culinary trip around the world. As the whim takes you, you can either satisfy your appetite with single countries, or absorb our culinary photo-material all at once (”Show all”). |
