Who doesn't love food?

It's a major reason many people travel to new destinations.

With Crystal Cruises, you can cruise around the world and enjoy delicious food with each meal.

Whether it's onboard or during an excursion, Crystal Cruises knows the value of a good meal.

Feeling hungry in Hungary?

Try lángos, a tasty snack made of doughy flatbread that is fried and topped with sour cream, cheese or garlic butter. You can also get it with sausage on top. It's perfect for on the go.

Cruising to Norway? Try pickled herring. It's a dish that dates back to the Vikings. Thin slices of fish are doused with vinegar and salt. Put them on some bread and voila, you're good to go.

Croatia is a destination coming into its own. While visiting, travelers must try Croatian black risotto. Sure, your teeth might turn a little black, but your taste buds will surely thank you.

It's often prepared with cuttlefish or squid, olive oil, garlic, red wine and squid ink. If you love seafood, this will be a dish to write home about.

Kaya toast and soft-boiled eggs are the go-to breakfast item for many locales in Singapore. Thick cuts of fluffy white toast are slathered in coconut or egg kaya and butter and then served with soft-boiled eggs that are seasoned with dark or light soya sauce.

Should you ever find yourself in Australia, pick the prawns. These king prawns can be served how you please. Squeeze a lemon over it to keep it simple, roast them with fresh veggies or grill the prawns before you devour them.

Food can surely be the key to happiness and eating like a local is the way to go as you discover new destinations.
