T HAS LONG been recognized that eating street food is a rite of passage for anyone who wants to call themselves a serious foodie. We tend to agree. As curious food seeking travellers, we can’t think of a better way to get deep into the culture of a place than strolling through a street food market or hawker centre and eating something unfamiliar. Whether you’re enjoying antojitos in downtown Oaxaca City, Mexico or slurping noodles in a night market in Asia, street food is a ubiquitous part of travel. It’s an experience universally enjoyed by people from all walks of life. To help you channel your inner Bourdain, we’ve picked our favourite hawker foods to scout the world’s streets for. >
