Are you travelling with a picky eater? It can be hard to find restaurant options that accommodate everyone’s preferences. Here are four tips to keep everyone full and happy on your vacation!
1. Do Your Research
Before the trip, look up restaurant options and check their menus (and reviews!). If your picky eater is an adult, ask them to choose a few places they’d feel comfortable eating at. Making reservations can help ensure you have dining options sorted out.
2. Introduce Local Cuisine Gradually
If you’re going to a new country, start incorporating a bit of the local cuisine into their diet at home before the trip. This can make them more open to trying new foods when you arrive.
3. Pack Familiar Foods
Save space in your luggage for simple, familiar snacks like cereal, fruit snacks, or other non-perishable items. These can provide comfort and keep your picky eater satisfied during travel. Travelling by car? Pack a cooler and consider pre-making meals that you can reheat in your hotel microwave!
4. Opt for Accommodations with a Kitchen
If possible, consider booking a place with hotel suite with a kitchen. This will allow you to stop at a local store, or have your groceries delivered, and prepare meals that your picky eater enjoys. You can cook earlier in the evening and later enjoy dining out with the group!
Implementing these tips can help make traveling more enjoyable for everyone! No one likes to be hangry on vacation! 🙂 Thanks for reading!
