Eating Out When Travelling Abroad
A large part of a holiday’s enjoyment is defined by the food that is eaten when there. Travellers spend quite a proportion of their time looking for places to eat, before they even get to their destination. Most tourist books such as Lonely Planet and the Rough Guide include sections on good places to eat for a number of price ranges. People plan to visit this or that place because it has an eating place that sounds nice. Tourists also find nice places when they’re travelling, then go back to them again if they can (or sometimes they can’t, because there are too many good places…).
When reminiscing about holidays it always ends up being “oh, and that place on the seafront at …” or “the lovely old place in …” or “that Taverna right by the sea at …” or “that place that served lovely pasta…”. One couldn’t bear to go somewhere and not go out for dinner. Being stuck in the hotel “buffet dinner” every night is hardly anyone’s idea of a good holiday.
This is why we put together thist site about eating out when travelling abroad. The site talks about amazing places to eat at in locations across the world, be they just off the Equator (1 degree North) or near the North Pole (90 degrees North), which is why we called it the One-Ninety Restaurant Site.
Healthy Dining
Eating out is one of the best things about being on holiday. A Traveller’s Guide to London will give you all the information on where to stay in London. Cheap hotels ,discount hotel reservations, special offers, attractions, events, theatre breaks, event tickets, restaurants, night life, guided tours, walks, tips and recommendations. However, so-called ‘traveller’s tummy’ can ruin your trip and leave you feeling miserable. Luckily, there are several things you can do to prevent you becoming ill from what you eat and drink. These include:
- Unless you know that the drinking water is safe, boil it or use purification tablets. Bottled water is usually safe so use it for drinking, washing food and cleaning teeth.
- Don’t take ice in your drink – it may be made from water that contains germs.
- Eat freshly prepared food, preferably cooked. Uncooked food should be avoided.
- Wash your hands after using the toilet and before preparing or eating food.
- Check with your doctor that you have all the vaccinations you need before travelling.
- Take extra care if you are pregnant, elderly or ill.
