Intrepid Food

Food has a way of connecting us. Like when a cup of tea with a stranger turns becomes an unexpected memory with a new friend. Or when a homecooked meal in a family home on the other side of the world goes from something on the itinerary to the highlight of your trip. 

Intrepid Food is a celebration of these moments – the memorable meals, precious stories and cherished recipes that travellers never forget. In this collection, we asked travel experts, locals and writers to share the uncommon food experiences they've encountered across the world. 

You’ll head to Ireland to celebrate the spice bag and Iceland to enjoy rye bread ice cream. You’ll sleep under the stars in Uganda after devouring a feast cooked on a single-burner portable stove and eat giant gourami in the Mekong Delta. And you'll be inspired to seek out new experiences – the kind that stay with you forever. Because often, the most unforgettable experiences and deepest connections happen when food is shared. 

We’ll donate 2% of book proceeds to The Intrepid Foundation, who distribute funds to local partners in the places you visit.
