#3 Spain

Coming in at number three: Spain. More specifically, the capital Madrid, because that’s where it all happens. Here you’ll find not only typical tabernas where you can eat traditional Spanish Jamón Ibérico de Bellota, but also plenty of top-level restaurants. And for the best tortilla of your life, visit this Mercado during your city trip too.

#2 Vietnam

Gordon puts Vietnam at number two. According to the star chef, Vietnam is a melting pot of delicious food. “I fell in love with Vietnam because of the way people here treat food. The cuisine is refined yet balanced.” Sweet, sour, spicy and fresh; we love Vietnamese cuisine too (except for that stinky durian).

#1 Laos

Having just returned from a trip to Laos, Gordon Ramsay can only dream about all the delicious food he got to taste there. He didn’t eat it in the busy cities, by the way, but in the countryside. His favorite dishes? The famous larb salad, green papaya salad and sticky rice.
