Raised in an Italian family where food was the focus of every celebration, I’ve never been shy about my love for great food. After spending several college years as a fine dining server, my taste buds became more refined and also woke up to the wonderful world of wine.
Traveling has always been a big part of my life, too, so it’s only natural that food and wine vacations are at the heart of so much of what I love — adventure and discovery, great cuisine and vino, the company of friends and family, savoring something new, finding comfort in the familiar, not having to cook.
If you feel like I do, now is an especially perfect time to plan a food and wine vacation. Check out the fantastic food and wine deals going on right now at Orbitz and book your travel to one of these incredible destinations.
New York City
An unparalleled culinary mecca, New York City can whisk you around the world in one fell swoop by way of its remarkably eclectic and truly inspiring dining options. And spring is a great time to enjoy all this city has to offer: Stroll the parks, shop the most glamorous stores and enjoy the shows, but most importantly, plan your days around your meals. From favorites like Chinatown’s Dim Sum, fresh bagels and hot corned beef to expertly designed menus and wine lists in New York City’s most extravagant, decadent restaurants, you’ll leave feeling like you took a whole lot more than a bite of this apple.
