Enter the world of culinary school vacations with internationalkitchen.com, which helps you master local cuisine while on vacation

Donning an amateur chef's hat on a holiday abroad is not everyone's idea of a dream vacation. However, if you believe that the best way to enjoy local hospitality in a foreign land is to pull up your sleeves and share kitchen space with them, go right ahead and log onto theinternationalkitchen.com. The site claims to be a pioneer of the concept of cooking school vacations for over 15 years and offers more than 90 cooking vacations, with over 50 choices for one-day cooking classes.


 
Whip it up
You can pick from cooking school vacation in Italy, France, Greece, Turkey, Morocco, Spain and Portugal, France, Mexico, Central and South America and the United Kingdom. The travel itinerary is detailed, but the price list is missing in certain cases and is only available on enquiry. The package includes transport throughout the holiday activities and itinerary, meals, trips to local food markets and guided tours and walks that focus on food and culture of the said area. Besides, you get to select tour dates according to your convenience and plan a trip to your favourite foreign locale.

You can also browse through traveller testimonials of those who have experienced the tour. A few select videos will even give you a glimpse of the real thing while your vacation. The site is easy to navigate, and are active on Twitter and Facebook. Plus, several videos have been uploaded on Youtube that will give you a chance to bond with fellow culinary travellers.

The pages on the site aren't particularly inviting but its user friendliness makes amends. The website comes packed with all vital information to plan your trip. Hwoever, there are limited options for certain countries (the UK only features trips to Scotland), in the US, the wine towns of Sonoma and Napa Valley don't even feature on the list.
