I admit, Im a sucker for regional food. It always seems that when I plan a cruise, the first thing I do id look for what food I can get in port that I cant get at home...or at least a more authentic version.
What port foods are the best/worst in your humble (or not) opinion? For me, the best food I have had was some smoked, candied salmon at the Granville Island farmers market in Vancouver BC. |

Cheese sticks at Australia's Adelaide Central Market, food at Johannesburg's Safari Club bed and breakfast and at KwaZulu-Natal's Phinda Private Game Resort. The last two were not a cruise trip.
I have not had any bad food on cruises or other trips as I am extremely selective about what I eat.

St John USVI - Conch fritters from Shipwreck Landing in Coral Bay. I would take someone's eye out and drop an elbow if it meant I could get one of these bad boys on a cold day like today!

Favourite food cities? Rome (pizza and pasta of course plus that heavenly gelato), baklava in Santorini and paella in Barcelona.
Least favourite? None really. I think we've been very fortunate with food choices. |
