description: Venice, jewel of Italy’s Veneto, is in a culinary league of its own with seafood classics like sarde in saor and sweet favourites such as frittelle
encoded: Venice is a city like no other, with shimmering canals, hidden alleyways and a food culture shaped by the sea. From cicchetti – the Venetian take on tapas – to hearty regional classics, the city is brimming with dishes that celebrate its history and setting. Whether you’re hopping between cosy bars for small plates or sitting down to a fresh seafood feast, Venice serves up plenty to tempt every kind of traveller. Explore more foodie travel inspiration and discover our top eats from around the world in our travel hub. Or bring a taste of Italy to your table with our collection of Italian recipes – from timeless pasta and pizza to sweet treats like tiramisu. 8 foods to try in Venice 1. Frittelle A recent take on these little doughnuts includes Nutella, but the traditional Venetian version involves pine nuts, citrus peel and raisins or sultanas. Try them at Rosa Salva (a Venetian chain) – and have a napkin handy! 2. Veneziana If you want one of these panettone-esque treats straight off the train, turn left out of Santa Lucia railway station, walk down Rio Terà Lista di Spagna and step into a little slice of Italian life in Pasticceria Dal Mas. 3. Fritto misto A good place to try fritto misto is Osteria Ai Promessi Sposi, a Cannaregio neighbourhood institution, but ensure that you book ahead. Order a carafe of cold prosecco and the crispy fried seafood dish for an unforgettable meal. 4. Sarde in saor Fresh fish is marinated with vinegary onion, raisins and pine nuts, here, all of which lend a sweet tang. Light and fresh, this is the perfect dish for a hot summer’s day, especially when paired with a glass of crisp white wine. 5. Fegato alla veneziana The intense sweetness of slow-cooked onion balances the delicate flavour of the calf’s liver in this dish, a legacy of Venice’s maritime past, when perishable offal was discarded before voyages. It’s still popular today. 6. Cicchetti Local delicacies in bitesized form, cicchetti are often eaten as bar snacks. Try white salt …

description: From Spain to St Lucia, we reveal the best all-inclusive resorts across the globe that guarantee delicious food
encoded: Forget beige buffets and limited drinks menus, today’s all-inclusive resort is aimed at an ever-younger, travel-savvy crowd who demand boutique design and the comfort of knowing that all those craft cocktails have been factored into the headline price. The luxe all-inclusive concept, long-established in the Indian Ocean and Caribbean, has lately picked up firmly in Europe. Premium wines, chef-led tasting menus and glasses of fizz are now deemed a must-have for any self-respecting all-inclusive resort, while some now partner with local restaurants in ‘dine out’ programmes that allow the culinarily curious to explore beyond the hotel compound. Seeing the winning recipe, upscale brands including Marriott, Hyatt and Wyndham are beginning to gather all-inclusive resorts at a pace, while established groups such as Domes Resorts are adding an exclusive top-tier to their all-inclusive categories. We've visited resorts across Europe and further afield – read on for our round up of the best all-inclusive holidays. Jump to: Best all-inclusive resorts in Europe Best all-inclusive resorts in the Caribbean Best all-inclusive resorts further afield Best all-inclusive resorts in Europe Ikos, Andalucia, Spain Best for: gourmet Spanish break The first foray for the Ikos brand outside Greece has raised the bar for Spanish all-inclusives, offering menus by Michelin-starred chefs, premium drinks and activities like paddle-boarding, yoga and golf, all on tap. There's massage for ‘deluxe’ guests in the spa, where you’ll find a lovely hammam, Anne Semonin treatments and an adults-only pool. There are five other swimming pools, around which this low-rise white-wash hotel is clustered in 21 acres of gardens along the beach. Kids’ clubs include tailored offerings for all ages, from four months to 17 years (free from four years old). The food available spreads across nine restaurants, with menus drawing from cuisines across Greece, the Med’ and Asia, accompanied by a 300-strong wine list. Then…

description: Over half of food waste in the UK comes from our homes, so we're spotlighting the best gadgets and tools that could help you reduce how much you throw away
encoded: As food lovers, we struggle to see ingredients and leftovers going to waste, so we're always looking for easy solutions that help us cut back on how much we throw away. According to climate action charity WRAP, which is behind Food Waste Action Week, a staggering 10.7 million tonnes of food waste is generated in the UK every year, and while a chunk of that is produced by farms, manufacturers, restaurants and supermarkets, around 60 per cent of food waste comes from our own homes. But as we hard as we try to keep track of use-by dates, repurpose leftovers and remember those items hidden at the back of the fridge, we could all do with a helping hand – and that's where the products listed below come in. These tools have been designed with reducing food waste in mind, to help you throw away less, save money on your grocery bills, and lower your carbon footprint in the process. We've included some items that you'll be familiar with but perhaps haven't considered buying before, plus other unique gadgets that make it easier to store and repurpose your food more efficiently. For further tips and to find out how the Good Food team uses up leftovers and spare ingredients from the Test Kitchen, read our guide on how to reduce food waste. This guide was brought to you by Cook Smart, a campaign designed by Good Food experts to help you save money and reduce food waste. Dive into more Cook Smart content in our budget hub.

description: Swap crowds for wide open sand, beachside tavernas and hidden gems – check out the best unspoilt destinations in Europe
encoded: As summer approaches and the days start getting longer, thoughts naturally turn towards holidays and a sunny beachside trip with friends or family. But, with parts of Europe suffering from overtourism and everywhere from Brighton to Barcelona being packed with visitors, it can be hard to decide where you should go for a less hectic break by the sea. However, Europe spans almost 50 countries and is roughly 5,000km wide – meaning there's a wealth of glorious beach spots to visit that are off the regular tourist trail. Discover these hidden gems this summer, from the wild waves of the Ionian sea and the natural thermal rock pools of Italy, to far-flung Scottish beaches mistaken for tropical sands and a French beach so good, it’s been immortalised in song. Beach season varies from place to place, but generally starts in March and April and finishes in September or October. The further south in Europe you go, the earlier opening and/or later closing seasonal bars, restaurants and hotels will be, so check in with each establishment to confirm dates before travelling. The earlier and/or later you travel in the season will also be cheaper, with peak (read: most expensive) time being the summer months of June, July and especially August, which is generally school holiday time across Europe. We’ve chosen a selection of places for all budgets, and most of our list contains beaches that can be reached by public transport, car or, in some cases, by foot. But, check for accessibility before visiting – some places may have steep steps or rocky hills that you'll need to walk up or down. Don’t forget to always bring plenty of water and sunscreen, and in the case of very remote beaches that may not have nearby cafes or bars, a picnic and something special to drink once you reach your destination. Read on to discover some of Europe’s best unspoilt beaches. Best unspoilt beach destinations in Europe Maronti Beach, Ischia, Italy Along the Amalfi coast, those in the know skip the crowded…

The best rail journeys in Europe for food lovers

description: Sustainable and scenic, travelling by train can make the journey as thrilling as the destination. Here we share six of the best train routes in Europe for foodies.
encoded: Sustainable, civilised and in many cases, supremely scenic, travelling across Europe by train brings families within reach of some great food destinations. And when you consider routes that ride high into the Alps, through the lavender-hue landscapes of rural France and even onto a ferry to cross the Straits of Messina to Sicily, the journey can be as much of a thrill as the final destination. Overall, children travel by train for free in Europe until much older than they do in the UK. Rules and fares differ with each country’s operator, and while some trains are more family-friendly than others, for the most part Europe’s proliferation of different trains – be they roomy double-deckers, high-speed services, sleepers or those with proper dining cars – make travelling a pleasure for families. And with far less in the way of luggage restrictions or carbon emissions than flying, train travel brings peace of mind. By many calculations a train trip produces up some 90% fewer CO2 emissions than a comparable flight. Rail Europe is a useful resource for information and booking, offering end-to-end ticket bookings from the UK to most parts of central and western Europe. The Trainline is a very similar offering. However, it’s worth noting that as booking windows differ between operators across Europe, your searches on these platforms may not show all available trains if they’re not yet open for sale, or the routing is outside the European regions covered by their ticketing capabilities (tickets from trains in parts of eastern Europe and Scandinavia, for example, can be booked directly with the national operators). It's also worth noting that these booking sites give minimum connection times between trains as standard, which does not account for delays. This may leave you out of pocket if you have, say, a non-refundable sleeper train booking. So, allowing more generous connection times makes travel less frenetic for families – but you should also consider turning those connect…

description: A camping holiday is a great option for kids – and you don't need to be versed in tents and flysheets to enjoy. Here, we unpack how to camp in Europe and share 6 idyllic destinations
encoded: Camping is like catnip for children – an irresistible invitation to break free and have fun al fresco, bringing the excitement of bedding down in cabin, caravan or under canvas. And if you’re not a family that’s versed in the ways of guy ropes and flysheets, fear not. Most European campsites offer fixed caravan and cabin-style accommodation, pre-erected tents and some truly glamorous glamping options – many complete with bedding. Lots come with cafes and shops selling the basics – if not more impressive local farm fare – so you may not need to pack any more than you would for a resort-based holiday. And if needed, you can cart all the necessary kit, as many of Europe’s campsites can be accessed without flying – by road, rail or ferry – which means you cut your carbon footprint, too. To see which parts of Europe are easiest to reach without taking a plane, The Green Traveller has a useful flight-free journey planner. What kind of campsites are there? Europe has campsites to suit every taste and most budgets. There are huge holiday camps like Domaine des Ormes, in Brittany complete with an 18-hole golf course, multiple swimming pools and restaurants, a high-wire adventure course and hundreds of acres of woodland and wildflower meadows. Then there are boutique operations like Champagne Perron-Beauvineau whose rustic wood cabins and pitches are surrounded by the vineyards of the Champagne region, where the hosting Perron family offer personal recommendations on where to eat and private wine tastings. Many of the smaller sites are sustainable holiday options – independent, family-run outfits where your payment goes directly into the local economy. While those set away from honeypot coastal resorts offer the opportunity to get back to nature on a low-impact holiday in places where overtourism isn’t a concern. Lots of rural campsites, including European locations of Featherdown Farm, the UK’s glamping pioneer operation, are part of local farming communities, so you’ll ofte…

description: With 50 countries all boasting their own unique culture, food and history, Europe is a treasure trove of family-friendly urban holiday destinations. Here we provide travel tips and recommendations for some our favourite European cities
encoded: For those who have a wanderlust for travelling, becoming a parent doesn’t have to curtail your opportunities for adventures. On the UK's doorstep, just a short train, plane, ferry or car ride away is Europe; 50 countries each with their own unique culture, food, history and languages, stretching from the snow-capped mountains and fjords of Scandinavia, to the sun-soaked beaches of the Mediterranean and the historic, grand architecture and art of eastern Europe. Travelling to Europe for a city break – four or five days over a weekend or school holiday – is a fantastic way to get a little taster of a country. And while there are no kids’ club to drop your children off at, by pre-planning together as a family and creating an itinerary factoring in activities that will be fun for children as well, this effort will make memorable, eye-opening experiences for all the family that will hopefully last a lifetime. It might be refreshing upon visiting some European countries to see how integrated kids are into all aspects of life there. It’s not uncommon for all the family to eat late at night together in places like Spain, Italy and Greece, with restaurants happily welcoming and accommodating babies and small children; while in countries like Denmark, Sweden and the Netherlands, children are at the heart of society – even down to town planning, with incredible open-air playgrounds and parks found in most city centres, or free entry to galleries, museums and exhibitions, many of which have been created with kids in mind. And exploring these cities with children in tow is still accessible and arguably so much more culturally rewarding than a week on a beach, though if you’re smart, you can factor that in too. Here’s everything you need to know about creating the perfect European city break with kids. When should I travel with kids in Europe? Unfortunately, the travel industry sometimes exploits the school holidays, hiking up prices that they know parents will be forced to pay. …

description: Planning a romantic break to France's capital city? Between casual strolls along the Seine, indulge in some of the best food to eat in Paris…
encoded: Travellers are advised to read the FCO travel advice at gov.uk/foreign-travel-advice for the country they are travelling to. French food isn't all about haute cuisine and fine dining—some of the best food to enjoy in Paris can be bought from a humble boulangerie for just a couple of euros. Bite into a buttery croissant, savour a crunchy baguette, or try your hand at making the colourful macaron, which takes more effort but is worth every second. Here's our pick of the gastronomic highlights. If you’re exploring the city and want helpful tips on where to eat, check out our guide to the best places to eat in Paris. If you’re inspired by French culture and cuisine, try our French recipes or top French dessert recipes. 20 local food to eat in Paris 1. Steak frites For the quintessential bistrot dish, steak frites, head to one of Paris’ atmospheric French brasseries, complete with brass fittings, linen tablecloths (red gingham optional) and smart, aproned waiting staff. These restaurants are so integral to the city’s dining scene, even multi-Michelin-starred chef Alain Ducasse has opened one: Champeaux in Les Halles. The simple pairing of a grilled steak with various optional sauces and chips is elevated to serious heights when the meat is well selected and carefully matured, and the potatoes are fresh, hand-cut and double-fried. Choose your cut of beef, your ‘cuisson’ (order ‘à point’ for medium-rare) and a sauce, be it Béarnaise or peppercorn, and crunch those crispy frites with a side order of squeaky haricots verts. Try our classic French steak with pommes frites recipe. 2. Croissants Walk past any bakery in the wee hours of the morning and you’ll be instantly spellbound by the warm buttery smell of fresh croissants escaping from the air vents at pavement level. This is your cue to step in and get your golden prize, which you can tuck into and savour on your morning walk as the city awakens. Sadly, fewer and fewer French bakeries make their croissants from scratch – …

If you think there is any incorrect or out-of-date information, please email us at goodfoodwebsite@immediate.co.uk With some estimates placing the number of restaurants in Paris at well over 40,000, you're unlikely to be stuck for options – and if you need help narrowing them down, we’ve got you covered. From the best steak frites and croissants to the cheapest bistros or coolest restaurants, our curated list covers the entire city, with recommendations to suit every budget. And with the city expecting a big tourism boom for the 2024 Paris Olympics, now’s the time to make those reservations. Treat your tastebuds by following this expert guide, then check out the other helpful guides in our travel hub. What is the best area for eating and drinking in Paris? Paris is split up into 20 arrondissements (districts), and the standard is generally high throughout. Montmartre, in the 18th arrondissement, is up in the hilly cobbled streets around the Sacre-Coeur and is fantastic for a taste of traditional Paris; there are also a host of excellent, well-known restaurants around Le Marais (around the 3rd and 4th). But for consistently great food in independent kitchens and popular, intimate restaurants, we’d suggest heading east, specifically the 11th, 10th and 3rd arrondissements. Best places to eat in Paris La Buvette This tiny cave à manger – a wine bar that serves small plates while you drink – has become such a firm favourite since it opened in 2012 that there's even now a cookbook of the same name, so customers can recreate some of Camille Fourmont’s signature offerings at home. ‘Delicious picky bits’ is probably the best way to describe the food here – anchovies, terrine, homemade pickles and butter beans in olive oil with lemon zest (their signature dish at €6.50); paired with a glass of minerally Pet Nat, it makes a perfect starting point for an evening out. 67 …
