Looking to Work Together?
Are you looking for food and travel content creators to tell the stories about the culinary gems in your area?
We can collaborate in many ways
As culinary explorers and digital nomads, we travel the world to help curious food lovers connect to local culture through food.
Former corporate explorers, we understand the value of building a strong online presence for destinations and brands.
Work with Authentic Food Quest
Let us tell the food stories of your destination, brand, or product. We’ll put a spotlight on the stories and cultural significance of the food.
We’ll share the unique local products, ingredients and cooking techniques. And, highlight local eateries that showcase the culinary specialties and the people behind the food.
By creating awareness about the local and regional specialties we aim to help you inspire travelers and home cooks to connect to the local culture through food.
Rosemary and Claire created Authentic Food Quest in 2015, with the goal of connecting people to local culture through food on their travels or at home.
Their website features local food guides with the authentic dishes, drinks, and food experiences not to miss. Readers will also find recipes of emblematic national dishes. The best local restaurants, cooking classes, food and wine tours, and more. All this is aimed at connecting curious food lovers to culture through food.
We welcome partnerships with tourism destinations, brands and food companies, and that offer enriching culinary experiences.
How to Partner with Authentic Food Quest
A partnership with Authentic Food Quest is a fun and effective way to promote your brand or destination and the amazing local specialties, restaurants, and more in your area.
We can produce high-quality content centered around the culinary gems and local food experiences to a highly engaged audience of food lovers.
Beyond written articles, social media promotions, and videos, we can also produce custom e-books highlighting the local food experiences in your area.
Since 2015 we’ve been traveling slow through local food in South America, Southeast Asia, Europe, and North America. Slow travel while living like the locals helps us understand and bring to bear the cultural context of the local food specialties.
