Most of us are familiar with Route 66 at least in name, it being one of the US's most famous historic highways. Personally, I think it is the ultimate road trip destination - after all, is there any road that's more iconic?

If you’re planning a holiday to Tunisia, your taste buds are in for a treat. Tunisia, the smallest country on the North African coast , draws culinary influences from many sources. Because Tunisia has suffered under many different colonial rulers over the past centuries, the food mixes elements of French, Spanish and Mediterranean cuisine with native North African flavours. Tunisian cooking tends to be spicy, but not all dishes tend this way – one of the most famous dishes to come from Tunisia is couscous. Mixed with peppers, chickpeas, potatoes and meat, couscous is a hearty dinner that can be mild enough for even the faintest of heart. Lamb is a common meat found in many Tunisian dishes, but you

Hear the words 'Dubai' and 'gourmet dining' in the same sentence and you'll probably automatically think of swanky, expensive restaurants that'll leave your wallet wincing and your bank account bereft. And, to be perfectly honest, a lot of the time you'd be right - but what I've recently discovered is that there are actually some fantastic and affordable gourmet eateries if you know where to look. Here are a few of the best. Al Nafoorah Where: Jumeirah Emirates Towers If you want to get a real taste of Arabia, Al Nafoorah is a great place to come that won't break the bank. It's known for its authentic Lebanese mezze platters (you can choose both hot and cold dishes), but it's got a reputation for more than its decent-value, delicious food .

How can a traveler navigate the Aussie city’s myriad Asian cuisines? Often mistaken for the country’s capital – a title which in fact belongs to Canberra – Sydney is the most popular urban destination in Australia . What’s more, with flight prices falling (you can pick up a cheap flight to Sydney for less than £650 with dialaflight.com), it has become one of the world’s favourite tourist spots. And it isn’t simply a big draw because of the stunning architecture and elegant sails of Sydney Opera House . Nor is it solely due to the 30-plus beaches which are nestled around this harbour town. Alongside culture, landscape and weather, Sydney is now a foodie destination. And with a history of increased immigration from South East Asian countries – and other cultures further afield – Sydney now boasts one of the most diverse and experimental Asian food scenes in the world. So where to go? And what to taste? Sydney’s Chinatown Any gastronomic trip through Sydney’s Chinatowns mus
