Food Tourism is on the rise and there is a growing interest in experiencing local food activities. The 2013 American Culinary Traveler Study shows that people traveling to enjoy unique and memorable eating and drinking experiences grew from 40% in 2006 to 51% in 2013.
At Authentic Food Quest, our goal is to be a resource that connects travelers to local and authentic food experiences. This is inclusive of showcasing the local and authentic dishes, farmers markets, the local joints, food, beer & wine festivals, local producers and chefs who support local and authentic flavors.
We want to build strong partnerships with brands, travel companies, and tourism destinations that offer enriching culinary experiences.
Authentic Food Quest
Authentic Food Quest is a resource platform that connects travelers to local food experiences. The goal is to create awareness about the local and authentic dishes and food experiences inspire travelers to connect deeper through food. We are Rosemary and Claire, culinary explorers and digital nomads behind this website.

Partnering with Authentic Food Quest
A partnership with Authentic Food Quest is a fun and effective way to promote your brand, destination and the local and authentic foods in your area, restaurants and more.
We write about the local flavors we discovered on our quest in four countries in South America: Argentina, Uruguay, Peru, and Chile. And more recently in our 6-month tour of Southeast Asia, where we explored the local flavors of the Philippines, Thailand, Vietnam, Cambodia, Malaysia, and Singapore.
