Taste Local Culinary Delights With Traveling Spoon

Forbes called it “the next generation of culinary tourism” and we couldn’t agree more. Foodies across the globe are signing on to Traveling Spoon to get a taste of every new city they visit. Think of it as Airbnb for food. You want a home-cooked, traditional meal while you’re in Thailand? You can log onto the app and find a local family to host you and your friends for dinner.

You can choose between three different experiences: Spend one to two hours having a home-cooked meal with your host; spend three to four hours having the home-cooked meal, plus a lesson on the culinary traditions of the culture; or spend five-plus hours having all of the above, plus a visit with your host to the local market where the food is bought.

Have friends abroad as well? Refer some friends and you can get $25 off of your first booking. Have a friend going on a trip? Traveling Spoon also offers their product as a gift.

Traveling Spoon has local hosts in 16 different countries so far — mostly in Southeast Asia. Every host around the world is vetted through the Traveling Spoon system to ensure safety for every traveler.
