7. Sushi - Tokyo
Delicious and fresh sushi is available all over Japan, but it is perhaps most associated with the sleek culture of Tokyo. While sushi can be had at any hour of the day, one experience unique to the city is a visit to the Tsukiji Fish Market, where early riser (arriving there at 4 a.m.) can watch the Meguro tuna auctions. For thr truly dedicated, the line begins at around 4:30 a.m. for a spot at Sushi Dai, the revered sushi restaurant within the inner market. For those who prefer sushi for dinner, check out Sushi Saito, which has three Michelin stars and only seven seats.
8. Gelato - Florence, Italy
Gelato is a treat that no traveler visiting Italy can avoid or resist. The well-documented difference between gelato and ice cream is the amount of air whipped into the batch - only 20% for gelato compared to 60% air for ice cream. This difference makes gelato denser and having a richer flavor. Although gelaterias do have some traditional ice cream flavors, they also carry certain flavors more popular in gelato.
9. Crepes - Brittany, France
Although crepes can now be found all over, they originated in Brittany, in the northwest region of France. One unique aspect of this iconic food is it can be eaten either savory or sweet. While some people eat the savory galettes for lunch or dinner with cheese, ham, eggs, or vegetables, the more widespread interpretation is as a sweet treat, filled or topped with Nutella spread, whipped cream, or custard.
10. Chili crab - Singapore
Although chili crab can be widely found throughout Singapore and Malaysia, it is considered Singapore's signature seafood dish. Crabs are served in a bright red sweet and savory tomato and chili based sauce, often with pullman toast, crusty bread, or steamed buns to sop up the sauce. Members strongly suggest the Jumbo Seafood Restaurant.
