Hubby and I like to take advantage of traveling abroad whenever we can, which unfortunately doesn’t happen as often as we would like. When we do get the opportunity to travel we always make it a point to taste the local cuisine. While on our honeymoon in Spain, we absolutely could not leave Madrid without paying a visit to Chocolateria San Gines, and trying the best churros in town with hot chocolate. The hot chocolate was so thick, it was more like chocolate dipping sauce than what we know as hot chocolate.

Since I am definitely a planner, I looked up this information ahead of time. Most of the time it requires researching multiple sources to gather all the necessary information regarding the local restaurants and cuisine for our trips. It would be much easier, if at least the information of where to eat and what to order in the city you’re visiting could be found in one place.

With that said, I was recently contacted by someone at MyCityCuisine asking me to let all of you foodies know that they are looking for contributors to their great wiki project. The goal of this project is to create a free, up-to-date guide for delicious local dishes in different parts of the world. The goal of the project is not to gather local recipes but to create a guide of local dishes and basic descriptions of them, so that travelers could make decisions on whether or not they would be interested in trying them. The guide could be searched by cities or countries. I think this is a great idea, and I am glad I could help spread the word and possibly add what I’ve learned during my travels.
