Food Travel: The Top 10 Food Blogs And Apps Travelers Should Use

If you're foodie, I bet there's no trip without food exploration, right? So, enjoy your foodie vacation while checking the best food blogs and apps for travelers.

Before visiting a new city or country, one of the first things I do is check the traditional dishes of that given place and where I can get the best and/or the most original version of it.

I used to spend loads of time on Google research until I found my go-to apps and blogs. They offer honest reviews, immersive experiences with locals and give away those hidden gems that we, foodies, are craving to find. Here they are.
