We’ve talked about travelling for food and how exciting could it be - here are my favourite top apps to find places and best food while travelling. I hope this guide is going to help you to find your new favorite spots around your area or make your future travels even more exciting. I'm not just referring to any ordinary food-finding app for travelers—that would be a bit too generic. The best travel apps should connect you with authentic local experiences or even very niche ones where to go.
1: Michelin Guide - Must Have For Your Next Adventure

Embrace the Spirit of Adventure
Eploring local restaurants and trying authentic dishes is an important (for some of us the most important) part of any travel adventure. Sure, there’s always a chance you’ll stumble upon an odd gem, but you’re more likely to have memorable meals if you do some research and planning in advance. Reading local reviews, cross-checking against Yelp and Google, and combing through relevant social media posts can help you find can’t-miss destinations and experiences. But of course - leave some space for an adventure around the corner.
