The Travel Insider - Destination Dining
Phil Aird-Mash, CEO of ITC Travel Group focuses on destination dining
For many of us, food is an essential part of travel. Indeed, when you think of your favourite holiday experiences, often it’s the food that stays in your mind. Wherever you go, getting to the heart of a place’s culinary traditions and gourmet innovations unlocks a whole new realm of discovery.
Perhaps you dream of private sandbank dinners under the stars, lengthy al fresco lunches, or some sizzling street food? Maybe you’re after Michelin-starred fare, wine-tasting tours or something else entirely? From the vineyards of California to the slightly more unusual dishes of Eastern Europe and the spices of Asia, why not join us in being led by your tastebuds for your next adventure?
In Australia’s Queensland, our Travel Specialists love qualia, the ultimate retreat for epicureans. In between seeing the best of Hamilton Island, you can try multi-course dégustations and signature culinary experiences. With ‘Talk and Taste’, you’ll enjoy the finest food pairings with wine chosen by the expert sommelier – all with the stunning backdrop of the surrounding Whitsundays.
It sometimes takes something out-of-the-ordinary to impress seasoned Maldives guests. That’s why I was so excited by Soneva Fushi’s latest culinary offering, ‘Flying Sauces’. Soar through the jungle on a zipline to an elevated platform, where a private butler serves gourmet delights paired with wines from the extraordinary cellar.
Meanwhile, Dubai has positioned itself as the culinary capital of the world. And with more than 250 cultural food concepts representing 191 countries, all in one place, it’s no exaggeration. Delight your palate at Atlantis, The Palm, with the most Michelin-starred restaurants in the region. Stop by Hakkasan for all-out indulgence, and Ossiano for fine dining complete with a sideshow of 65,000 marine life.
So, when you take your next holiday, be sure to get a full taste of the menu.
