Expert Tip: When visiting a new country, always ask the locals where they like to eat, and then go try the food there.

Eating where the locals eat allows you to really get a taste of the local food. If the locals love it and can vouch for it, then I can guarantee you that the food will be good. When I travel, I avoid restaurants that cater to tourists, or else it defeats the purpose of eating out for me. I am a major foodie, so it is only right that I expose my palate as well as kid’s palate to new things.
