Traveling isn’t just about exploring new sights or going on thrilling adventures. There’s plenty to learn about a country or locale’s culture through their food. In fact, this is one of the most overlooked aspects of travel: local cuisine. If you’re looking to try a bit of gastro-tourism for your next destination, get a bit of inspiration from some of the top foodie accounts on Instagram. You might be surprised at the degree of diversity that some places have when it comes to their dishes.
From Singapore to Syria, here are the top 11 foodstagrams that you should check out!
Girl Eat World – @girleatworld
Most people take selfies to commemorate a trip, especially if they happen to be traveling alone. Melissa of Girl Eat World wasn’t too fond of those, however, so she began taking photos of her food instead. What’s the appeal of that, you ask? Well, her snapshots are always set against some of the most gorgeous views. It’s like you’re getting a two-in-one deal: learning about local food and getting to see what great sights the place has to offer as well. To her credit, Melissa always finds interesting ways to make each shot stand out.
Food Feels – @food_feels
If it’s aesthetic appeal that you’re looking for, look no further than James’ Food Feels account. Food Feels mixes food, must-visit restaurants, luxury hotels, and travel, all in one sleek package. The best bit is that the account documents various types of dishes, whether that be breakfast, beverages, or other local delicacies. One might even mistake the account for an online lifestyle magazine considering how beautifully composed each shot is. It’s clear that James gives each post a degree of attention when it comes to detail—down to its very caption! From the familiar to cuisines that will tickle anyone’s curiosity, there’s bound to be something for you in Food Feels.
