Relevant and timely. In our globalised society, we are more connected with international cuisines than ever. When we travel, we want to do more than eat food, we want to experience food. Notably, 95% of American travellers are interested in unique food experiences and one third of their holiday budget is spent on food (study by The World Food Travel Association).
