"One of the best parts of traveling is almost always the cuisine, whether that’s a teppanyaki experience in Japan with a private chef or finding the best budget kaiserschmarren high in the Alps. But as we all know, international travel is but a dream for the average American this winter. But if you’re buying this gift-giving season for someone who loves both food and travel, you’re in luck: food and ingredients from just about anywhere in the world if you know where to look."
