The best food doesn’t have to be prepared and served in a restaurant. If you are a food lover, then you already know that some of the best foods around are the ones prepared and eaten on the street. In the international cuisine scene, street food wins.
Most restaurants around the world try imitating these foods thus raising the cost of the servings, but that unique taste of street food stays on with you for a long time. There is something special about eating food from a paper plate as you walk down a street just because you are hungry and you can.
If you travel a lot and if you love street food, then you should eat the following street delicacies in different parts of the world. These delightful meals include:
1. Vada Pav in India
Mumbai is the epitome of street food. If you happen to visit India, then you should leave the confines of your hotel room and walk down the street. You will come across very many food varieties and they all taste magnificent. However, the vada pav just wins the delicacy competition.
This snack is made with high quality spices, mashed potatoes dipped in chickpea and the best Indian chutney. You must eat these rolls if you ever visit India.
2. Chicken Rice in Singapore
Are you in Singapore for business or pleasure? Hopefully, you have left your hotel, taken a walk down the street and eaten the chicken rice. What is special about it? Well, compared to the chicken rice you eat back at home, the one served in Singapore streets has unique flavors added to it and the way the food is prepared is totally different from what you would prepare at home. The taste is simply out of this world!
3. Jerk Chicken in Jamaica
Are you in Jamaica and wondering what best places to eat near me are? Look no further, just walk down the street and look for a stall with people enjoying jerk chicken. This chicken is smoked under native pimento wood. The spices are also added to the wood resulting in the unique taste of the chicken. This chicken can be enjoyed with a side of Jamaican rice or peas.
4. Pork Satay in Thailand
Thai street foods are heavenly. The pork satay prepared and sold on the streets will make your stay in Thailand so much more enjoyable and memorable. You may not like pork, but this is the reason why you will always ask for pork and you just may eat the pork satay every day when in Thailand.
