Take A Culinary Vacation

Looking to travel to another country to experience their food? Or do you want to stay in the U.S. and see what life is like on small farms that practice sustainable methods and grow heirloom produce. This and more is available in the facinating world of culinary vacations. Think of how exciting it would be to take a vacation centered around one of the greatest passions of all time -- food!
Hotels, restaurants and cruise ships are responding to the increased interest, offering experiences like scuba diving for your diner and working with well know chefs. People have even been know to pester chefs, at European fine dining restaurants, to get them to instruct them on making a favorite dish their restaurant serves.
Many of the Four Seasons Hotels offer some form of culinary programs that relate to their location. Like the Four Seasons in Thailand provides instruction on a couple of Thai favorites like Pad Thai.
While this type of vacation is exciting and very educational it's not for the faint of wallet. These can really cost. But if this is your passion and it's a once in a lifetime opportunity, you might be happy to part with your hard earned cash.
