description: Chiang Mai, a vibrant city in northern Thailand, offers a dynamic food scene blending local traditions and diverse flavours, from street eats to regional specialities
encoded: A vibrant city in northern Thailand, Chiang Mai has become a holiday hotspot, boasting a dynamic food scene shaped by local traditions and diverse influences. Whether you are a street food enthusiast or seeking regional specialities, the city offers a tempting array of dishes that capture its unique culinary spirit. Discover even more fabulous foodie travel experiences and our top eats across the globe in our travel hub. If you want to transport yourself to Thailand from the comfort of your kitchen, try more of our Thai-inspired recipes. 8 foods to try in Chiang Mai 1. Khao soi Chiang Mai’s signature dish: egg noodles in a rich, coconut-based curry broth, topped with slow-cooked chicken or beef, crispy noodles and a squeeze of lime. Khao Soi Khun Yai is known for its deep, smoky flavour. 2. Sai oua This coarse-grilled sausage is a northern Thai essential, made with minced pork, lemongrass, lime leaves, galangal and fiery chilli. Slightly tangy, try it sliced as a snack at Warorot Market, or grilled whole at Tong Tem Toh. 3. Nam prik ong A chunky relish that combines minced pork, fermented soybean paste, garlic, tomato and dried chilli. Served with crunchy veg and sticky rice, you’ll spot it at Huen Phen or among the array of dips for your roast bird at SP Chicken. 4. Crispy pork belly Known locally as moo krob, this lunchtime favourite is all about the contrast: melting layers of juicy pork under a blisteringly crisp skin. Try it slow-roasted in a clay oven at Neng’s Claypot Pork with rice and a rich pork bone broth. 5. Khao niaw mamuang Mango sticky rice is popular across Thailand, but Chiang Mai’s cooler climate brings a special fragrance to its Nam Dok Mai mangoes. Try Mango Tango near the night bazaar, or Mae Varee Fruit Shop for a sweet end to a market ramble. 6. Khao kha moo Braised pork leg on rice isn’t unique to Chiang Mai, but it has a cult following thanks to the city’s ‘cowgirl hat lady’ at Chang Phuak night market. Her tender pork is served over rice wi…

description: From Spain to St Lucia, we reveal the best all-inclusive resorts across the globe that guarantee delicious food
encoded: Forget beige buffets and limited drinks menus, today’s all-inclusive resort is aimed at an ever-younger, travel-savvy crowd who demand boutique design and the comfort of knowing that all those craft cocktails have been factored into the headline price. The luxe all-inclusive concept, long-established in the Indian Ocean and Caribbean, has lately picked up firmly in Europe. Premium wines, chef-led tasting menus and glasses of fizz are now deemed a must-have for any self-respecting all-inclusive resort, while some now partner with local restaurants in ‘dine out’ programmes that allow the culinarily curious to explore beyond the hotel compound. Seeing the winning recipe, upscale brands including Marriott, Hyatt and Wyndham are beginning to gather all-inclusive resorts at a pace, while established groups such as Domes Resorts are adding an exclusive top-tier to their all-inclusive categories. We've visited resorts across Europe and further afield – read on for our round up of the best all-inclusive holidays. Jump to: Best all-inclusive resorts in Europe Best all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean Best all-inclusive resorts further afield Best all-inclusive resorts in Europe Ikos, Andalucia, Spain Best for: gourmet Spanish break The first foray for the Ikos brand outside Greece has raised the bar for Spanish all-inclusives, offering menus by Michelin-starred chefs, premium drinks and activities like paddle-boarding, yoga and golf, all on tap. There's massage for ‘deluxe’ guests in the spa, where you’ll find a lovely hammam, Anne Semonin treatments and an adults-only pool. There are five other swimming pools, around which this low-rise white-wash hotel is clustered in 21 acres of gardens along the beach. Kids’ clubs include tailored offerings for all ages, from four months to 17 years (free from four years old). The food available spreads across nine restaurants, with menus drawing from cuisines across Greece, the Med’ and Asia, accompanied by a 300-strong wine list. Then…

description: Travelling to New York? Try our top 10 favourite foods from this vibrant city, including brilliant bagels, classic street food and the best pizza around.
encoded: New York is one of the world’s great – if not greatest – food capitals, defined by its myriad immigrant cultures and almost limitless choice. Whether it’s a supersized bodega sandwich or chicken parm in an old-school Italian joint, New York’s dishes are as much a part of the city as its yellow cabs and skyscrapers. If you’re planning a trip and wondering where to start, here’s our guide to the Big Apple’s 10 most iconic foods – and where to find the best of them. Top 10 foods to try in New York 1. New York slice You can find every style of pizza imaginable in New York, but the city’s signature slice – thin, foldable and with just the right ratio of sauce to cheese – is its true pizza icon. Unlike Neapolitan pizza, which has a softer base, New York slices are crisp and sturdy – served on nothing fancier than a white paper plate – and designed to be eaten on the go. It’s the ultimate fast food, and one of the city’s cheapest bites: although the days of $1 slices are long gone, you can still find a giant slice of pie for around $3. For a classic no-fuss slice, Joe’s Pizza in Greenwich Village has been a favourite since 1975, its walls lined with pictures of all the celebs who have visited over the years. Hipster hotspot Scarr’s on the Lower East Side grinds its own flour in-house and offers a pared back menu of classic slices, while Paulie Gee’s Slice Shop in Greenpoint channels a 1970s pizzeria vibe, complete with red-chequered trays and wood-panelled walls – don’t miss its hot honey pepperoni square slice. 2. Pastrami sandwich No dish captures New York’s Jewish deli culture better than a pastrami sandwich – thick slices of smoked beef served on rye with a smear of mustard and a pickle on the side. By far the best place to try one is Katz’s Delicatessen, one of the most famous places in the city, with its iconic sign out the front and classic old-school interiors that have barely changed in 100 years. Ordering at the counter from the long-serving staff is as much a pa…

description: Explore New Delhi through its bold flavours and centuries of food traditions. Vineet Bhatia walks us through his favourite dishes and where to find them
encoded: For food lovers, New Delhi is a paradise, offering everything from street food classics like chaat and parathas, to fine dining experiences featuring regional Indian and international cuisines. Whether you’re exploring centuries-old monuments, navigating vibrant markets or indulging in a culinary adventure, New Delhi promises a journey filled with discovery, flavour and inspiration. Find even more foodie travel guides, destination inspiration and restaurant reviews in our travel hub. If you're planning to visit this beautiful Indian city, check out Vineet Bhatia's recommendations for the best food and drink to try during your stay. 8 New Delhi dishes to try 1. Parathas These flaky, buttery flatbreads are a favourite of mine. Go to Paranthe Wali Gali (flatbread lane), a narrow street in the Chandni Chowk. Either stuffed with vegetables or plain, they often come with chutney and pickles. Try making your own paratha to soak up your favourite Indian curries. 2. Spices Khari Baoli is Asia’s largest spice market located in the old city. It’s the wholesale end of the market and is known for its heady aromas and vibrant colours. Buy something to take home and cook with. Use your spices in one of our easy curry recipes for an extra punch. 3. Street-food staples Full of childhood nostalgia, aloo tikki (potato cakes), samosas, bedmi poori (deep-fried, puffed bread made with urad dal), nagori halwa (crisp, crumbly pooris) and kachoris (stuffed fried pastries) hold a special place in my heart. 4. Sweets Swirly jalebi and creamy rabdi with nuts from the 17th-century market Chandni Chowk capture the charm of Mughal-era treats. Try kheer (rice pudding) from legendary Bade Mian Ki and fresh naan khatai from Chawri Bazaar. 5. Kebabs and royal dishes The roads around Jama Masjid are a hot spot for these historical dishes. Look for seekh and shami kebabs, nalli nihari (slow-cooked mutton) and rich shahi tukda (bread pudding with cardamom). If you want to try cooking a dish worthy of ro…

description: Over half of food waste in the UK comes from our homes, so we're spotlighting the best gadgets and tools that could help you reduce how much you throw away
encoded: As food lovers, we struggle to see ingredients and leftovers going to waste, so we're always looking for easy solutions that help us cut back on how much we throw away. According to climate action charity WRAP, which is behind Food Waste Action Week, a staggering 10.7 million tonnes of food waste is generated in the UK every year, and while a chunk of that is produced by farms, manufacturers, restaurants and supermarkets, around 60 per cent of food waste comes from our own homes. But as we hard as we try to keep track of use-by dates, repurpose leftovers and remember those items hidden at the back of the fridge, we could all do with a helping hand – and that's where the products listed below come in. These tools have been designed with reducing food waste in mind, to help you throw away less, save money on your grocery bills, and lower your carbon footprint in the process. We've included some items that you'll be familiar with but perhaps haven't considered buying before, plus other unique gadgets that make it easier to store and repurpose your food more efficiently. For further tips and to find out how the Good Food team uses up leftovers and spare ingredients from the Test Kitchen, read our guide on how to reduce food waste. This guide was brought to you by Cook Smart, a campaign designed by Good Food experts to help you save money and reduce food waste. Dive into more Cook Smart content in our budget hub.

description: Discover our pick of the best family-friendly cruise lines from around the world. Our expert recommendations include foodie choices, river cruises and island-hopping adventures
encoded: Think ‘cruise’ and many of us will picture mega ships; vast floating theme parks that visit the sort of resorts more readily experienced on a beach holiday. But at their best, cruises take travellers to places otherwise difficult or even impossible to get to, bringing within reach some of the world’s most thrilling destinations and unique landscapes. For families and multi-generational groups, they offer comfort and entertainment with measured doses of adventure. And for food lovers, there’s an ever-booming number of big name, chef-led cruises to choose from. Crystal’s ships, for example, host the world’s only floating Nobu and Beefbar venues along with fine dining courtesy of the Alajmo bros and while, like many culinary cruises, its on-board offering may be more geared to grown-ups, routings like its Mediterranean sailings really pack in the ports of call, offering youngsters a cultural grand tour of Europe’s greatest cities and sites. And while there’s no doubt that travel by train and even plane is a more sustainable way to holiday, cruising is making improvements, with stricter regulations over emissions and waste, and companies like Ponant and Hurtigruten sailing towards ‘zero-emission propulsion’ by 2030 using wind- and battery-powered technology. Look for ships that offer locally sourced food options and employ waste reduction initiatives (recycling, composting and greywater treatment systems), and those using shore power rather than engines while docking, and liquid natural gas (LNG) while sailing, which some consider to be a comparatively cleaner fuel source. Many nature-focused and expedition cruises will offer educational programs on environmental impact. If you’re seeking a family-friendly cruise that offers the real adventure of travel, taking you places perfect for exploration by sea, where culture and local food is a raison d’etre, here’s our selection of places to set sail.

description: Exploring the Florida Keys: A scenic 113-mile road trip from Miami to Key West, crossing 42 bridges with ample sightseeing and travel options
encoded: Travelling the lengths of the Florida Keys down 113 miles of road, hopping from island to island over 42 bridges is a trip of a lifetime. The Keys begin an hour’s drive south of Miami and the road takes you all the way to mile marker ‘0’ in Key West. It’s a straight line so it’s an easy drive with plenty of sightseeing opportunities to break it up. There are non-car options, including coaches, and if you extend the holiday, cycling is an option. Key Largo This is the first of the Florida Keys. On this island, you’ll find the Everglades National Park to the west and John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park to the east with beaches, mangroves, forests and nature trails. Key Largo’s John Pennekamp Coral Reef State Park covers about 70 nautical square miles. Scuba diving, snorkelling trips and glass-bottom boat tours of the living coral reef are available, or you can kayak, paddleboard and hike through mangroves (floridastateparks.org). Eat conch fritters, little neck clams or a fried mahi reuben on rye at Mrs Mac’s Kitchen on Overseas Highway. Sit at the bar for the full diner experience and try Islamorada Brewery beers (mrsmacskitchen.com). Stay at Baker’s Cay Resort. Taking up 15 acres on the ‘sunset’ side of the Keys. It boasts mangroves and trees peppered with tiny hidden beaches and a boat dock where we spotted manatees. Eat at Calusa the Creole-Caribbean restaurant with a lovely balcony; expect fish like yellowtail snapper and mahi. Breakfast includes tostadas, egg ‘bennies’ or fruit-loaded breakfast bowls. The resort avoids single-use plastics, using avocado stone straws, rice paper food wrappers,biodegradable corn starch cups and soft drinks in cans or glass bottles only. You are given refillable PATH water bottles on arrival and there are refill points (bakerscayresort.com). Marathon, Upper Keys Marathon is a 10-mile stretch of 13 islands including Vaca Key, Grassy Key and Fat Deer Key. Cycle the Old Seven Mile Bridge (aka Old 7) to Pigeon Key. Bikes can be rented…

description: Start your holiday planning with inspiration for sustainable travel—explore eco-friendly destinations and make mindful choices on your next adventure
encoded: Travel ‘trends’ are not very sustainable, they often encourage everyone to visit the same place at the same time, which isn’t good for the traveller or the destination. If you’re not pinned to school holidays then consider ‘shoulder season’ travel, when there’ll be fewer crowds and the weather won’t be so very hot, or cold. Flying does, of course, come with a carbon footprint but when you reach a destination you can choose to make your stay as planet-friendly as possible by looking for hotels with sustainable practices such as using green energy, turning off lights and air-con when not in use, using water carefully, employing local people and giving back to their environment. When you are out and about, it’s hard to avoid single-use plastic in some countries, especially when eating street food – a stall or small restaurant that uses washable plates and cutlery can be a better bet. Local transport can be bikes, electric vehicles or public transport. In all destinations, local people care about their environments and there will be good choices to make. 1. Ho Chi Minh City Bánh mì & history 2025 is the 50th anniversary of the fall of Saigon so Ho Chi Minh City will be newsworthy. In truth, it's always a good year for a trip to this food-centred destination. You could, if you wanted, live on bánh mì for three meals a day, the modern version was invented here: fried egg-stuffed baguette for breakfast, roast pork, pâté and the works for lunch, then a Southern Vietnamese version filled with veg and herbs for dinner. At the other end of the super sandwich scale, this city has three Michelin one-star restaurants, and 24 small establishments of street carts awarded a Bid Gourmand, often serving a singular dish well, such as exceptional chicken pho, xôi (steamed sticky rice) and Vietnamese pancakes. Go for the historical significance and eat well as a big bonus. 2. Istanbul Regional cuisine & green fine dining The reinvention of ancient into modern is a trick that Istanbul pul…

description: Longing to feel the sun on your skin and a cocktail in your hand? We've rounded up the best destinations for winter sun through a food-focused lens
encoded: Marrakech Almost-guaranteed sunshine, a short flying time and no jet lag from the UK plus great shopping opportunities in the medina (spices, saffron, rosewater, ceramics) and lively nightlife make the Red City an exciting winter option. Almost every restaurant serves warming tagines, couscous and b’stilla (pigeon in pastry) – read more here for foods to try while in Morocco. Don’t expect a wine list in all restaurants, riads or hotels but juices and sweet mint tea are served everywhere. At night, the frenetic Jemaa El-Fna square fills with snakecharmers and food stalls selling everything from sheep’s brains to smoked sausage. Food highlights of Marrakech La Marocain at La Mamounia – The traditional, open-air restaurant in this world-renowned hotel serves Moroccan classics with a refined touch, served by bow-tied waiters and accompanied by traditional live music. Starters of finely-chopped, delicately spiced salads and briouates (meat or cheese-filled savoury pastries) are followed by tagines elevated with luxurious ingredients such as monkfish or lobster. Pre-order the mechoiu d’agneu (oven baked lamb) or enjoy its royal couscous rich with lamb and merguez. Fragrant desserts feature sweet, flaky pastry, syrups and oranges in every form. L’mida – Instagram-friendly interiors and a menu to match mean it’s wise to book a table at this chic converted Marachi house in the medina, near the spice market. The shaded roof terrace, decked out in rattan, cacti, tiles and a striking mural, is the place to head for refreshing mocktails, Moroccan-influenced dishes like Caesar salad with crispy harissa chickpeas or a poke bowl with a hit of sweet and sour chermoula sauce. Good veggie and vegan options include a 7-veg couscous. Le Trou Au Mur – This stylish medina restaurant with rooftop terrace serves Moroccan dishes – stuffed poussin with vermicelli and harissa; m’rouzia (beef slow cooked in saffron, ras le hanout and honey); beef or camel tangia - alongside international food w…

description: Find out BBC Good Food's top family-friendly travel destinations for 2022, including must-try foodie hotspots in the UK and abroad.
encoded: Looking for inspiration for that much-anticipated family getaway? We’ve selected 10 places where fun and good food is guaranteed, from easy access UK escapes and no-fly French ski trips to European beach breaks, exciting activity holidays and that big bucket list trip to see the pyramids in Egypt or the wonders of Japan. Top 10 family travel destinations 2022 1. Kent: stay overnight at a nature reserve Treat yourself to a sleepover at the only national nature reserve in England in which you can spend the night. Elmley Nature Reserve, on the nearby Isle of Sheppey, comes with bell tents and farmhouse cottages to rent, owls to spot swooping low over the marshlands, and a bevy of Kent’s best farm shops nearby. You’re perfectly placed to explore further afield with the seafood shacks at Whitstable and the Cathedral city of Canterbury just 45 minutes away. Don’t miss The Goods Shed, a farmers' market-cum-foodhall adjacent to Canterbury railway station, packed with picnic-worthy local produce and a lovely rustic café. 15 minutes east, there’s more wild fun to be had this year. By spring 2022, a small herd of wild European bison will be introduced to Blean Woods. Hunted to extinction, it’s been thousands of years since free-roaming bison were an integral part of our UK landscapes but a £1m project led by Kent Wildlife Trust and the Wildwood Trust sees the beasts return, in the hope that they’ll do their natural job of rewilding, managing forests by grazing on bark and felling weak trees. Once settled, ‘safari’ style nature tours will allow careful approach on foot. 2. Greece: small islands & mainland escapes Avoid the crowds and make a beeline for Greece’s bountiful choice of little islands characterised by family-run hotels and authentic local food. Follow in the footsteps of savvy Greek travellers and try Agistri. One of the closest islands to Athens (an hour by hydrofoil) its fragrant with pine forests offering easy hikes down to the astoundingly clear waters of the Sar…
