Kate’s tip
You might be wary of
trying street food but if you
use hand gel before and after,
choose your outlet carefully,
and pick hot, cooked-to-order
meals, you will possibly enjoy
some of the best food you
have ever eaten.Nazareth

Vespas in
Vietnam
Join an experienced
driver on a Vespa for a
street food tour of Saigon.
Try southern Vietnamese
specialties like banh xeo
(rice pancake with pork
and prawns) or various
popular snail dishes!
The Vietnamese traffic is
guaranteed to be almost
as exciting as your food,
but trust your driver, they
know what they’re doing.Israeli treats Israeli food is
almost as complex and fascinating
as the country’s history. Try some of the
restaurants or coffee shops in Old Jaffa,
the ancient port-side neighbourhood of
covered walkways and alleys in Tel Aviv;
taste knafeh, a sweet cheese pastry that is
the specialty of Nazareth; or join a cooking
workshop in Jerusalem where your chef will
help you choose ingredients
from the market before
leading a cooking class.A French food affair
It’s impossible to think of France without
imagining fragrant, freshly baked
baguettes, wonderful cheeses, rich
sauces and complex flavours blended
across the centuries. Why not join a
cooking school for a week and immerse
yourself in the traditions and techniques
of French cooking? Courses are designed
for you to be able to reproduce a range of
divine dishes easily at home.Oh Canada! Ten minutes from downtown Vancouver is the Granville Island
Public Market. Vibrant, fascinating and colourful, the market is a bustling hive
of stalls bursting with homemade products and gastronomic treats. Fresh,
aromatic, delicious – you won’t want to leave. The salmon burgers are great!
