Destinations of the World News - August 2023

इस अंक में

Most of my most treasured holiday memories are centred around what I ate and where. While the hotel might have been stunning and the company exceptional, what often lingers longest is a meal, a restaurant, or a dish I’ve eaten somewhere around the world. A ‘bush breakfast’ in Kenya as elephants sipped from a nearby watering hole; a stilted restaurant in the jungle of Costa Rica serving the silkiest sashimi; vegetables served a million different ways at a rustic pay-per-weight vegan restaurant in the seaside town of Búzios, Brazil; or mind-bending vegan food at Mildreds in London, so in demand that a queue snakes around the block.
With culinary tourism absolutely booming, this issue is a food lover’s guide to the world, taking you on epicurean adventures to some of the best restaurants and food-centric destinations. Learn why Thailand’s Chiang Mai is having a culinary awakening; Discover the restaurants with serious sustainability credentials for food that feels good too; and find out where to make a reservation this summer, from Budapest’s Spago by Wolfgang Puck to Cairo’s Maré Social.
Elsewhere, we have a million-dirham holiday (complete with heli-ride) in London for you, the best high-fashion beach club takeovers for summer, and five-star luxury in the Land of Fire.
Whatever travel maybe on your menu, we hope the experiences you encounter are good enough to eat!
