Do you try out local food specialities when you visit places or prefer your ..

Kiran ji, if you any time visit rajasthan that you should taste food of this colorful state. Rajasthan is rich state for tastes.

Hi , Kiran ..it depends really on what my taste buds are at that moment. If I feel like having something which I fancy , I will .. and if the local delicacy looks interesting , all the more better. I'm always up for new things anyway.

Yes i do try the food whenever i in to a foreign place,though sometimes if i an presented wit a really exotic food, i an not daring enough to go and taste them.

I like trying desserts in the places I go to.I just love sweets.I also try their seafood specialties.I like to trying menus with shrimp,clam,mussels,or squid in them.

If you are on a trip and you are visiting some place then it definitely becomes a part of your travel log to experience the tradition and culture of that particular place.And the culture and tradition includes the food.I can not imagine travelling to a particular place and returning back without having tasted the local delicasy.Aside from being a treat to your taste buds most of the times it also gives a upper hand in giving advice to any of your friend when they are making a trip to that particular place.

when we are travelling then we should taste food of that region but food should be an good condition.....whenever i travel any place i taste famous dishes from that region......

When my wife and I travel we like to visit local restaurants and cafes that we see to try the local food. It also gives us a chance to meet the local people. This practice has proven to be very enjoyable.

Good post! I normally prefer south Indian food but chapathis and parathas have become such an integral part of any household these days thta they can be treated as a common food of India.I opt for these. But no ;continental' etc..,

Hi Kiran! I would love to try local specialities, if they suit my palate (means they are not too tangy or spicy to eat). I feel this way we can have a taste of different local delicacies and dishes and it widens our knowledge about local food.

I think it's one of the best things about travelling. I first tried rabbit when I was in tenerife, in a restaraunt in the town, rather than at the hotel, and I loved it. and I really really want to go to New Orleans, but I think I'd come back the size of a house, as I love Creole food. it's not exactly known for being low fat, and I would probably spend most of the holiday eating. maybe if I do get to go one day, I'd better book two seats for the trip back.

I eat a vegan diet. Therefore I take plenty of my own vegan snacks with me when I travel overseas. I am also a very fussy eater. I take a phase book with me that tells the people that I am vegan. Many people in the world don't know what vegan is. I took my "Vegan Passport" to the Maldives and where I was staying the staff couldn't read it. They all had different languages and some of them couldn't read. I don't like to put people to much difficulty in feeding me. When I went to Samoa they went of the the capital city to shop for me! I am very keen on traveling to different countries but I have to be careful what I eat.

I do the same...and when I traveled with my kids I also had them try different or regional foods...you would be surprised how much they loved doing that...and how many different things they got to try...I love eating different kinds of foods! I do think it's part of the travel experience!

ya kiran, it is like visiting places and not eating out the dishes the locals dole out, its not possible at least for me i love to eat what comes by in the local area each place is popular for some good recipies and dishes they make locally and thats what my tounge wants, taste!

Yeah. it is a 'must' to try local specialties in places i visit as this is somewhat part of their culture. Although a lot of recipes are common among regions in our country, there are some sort of deviation in terms of ingredient and the way it is cooked locally... an experience worth remembering to every place i visit.

Yep, I do, but the husband is just as happy to hit a pizza place...

Hello Kiran ji, It is speacility of our country that language and eating habits change here after every 50 km. I think visit to any place is uncomplete without tasting the foods of that place. Every city famous for their tastes. In ref. of rajasthan you can not enjoy your trips if you do'not eat local foods. Rajasthan have many famous and delicious foods
