Hotel Cuisine from Around the Globe

We all like food, some like it a bit too much judging by the rising obesity levels in the UK, but along with the Christmas period there’s one other time of year when everyone feels the freedom to let themselves go, to over-indulge and say to hell with the diet. It is of course, your summer holidays. All inclusive holidays are the prize pick for the real porkers among us, but while on the face of it all hotel restaurants are about equal in the culinary stakes, some are of course more equal than others.

On a low cost holiday the hotel food on offer in some establishments is paramount to human rights abuse. Many all inclusive hotels offer seemingly bottomless troughs of unidentifiable ‘meat’ products that you start to imagine came from some sort of hybrid feathered cow. On the other hand, there are some surprisingly good little eateries either in or near many holiday hotels, and it’s those that we’d prefer to feast on here. Tales of gastronomic gallantry from holiday hotel restaurants and the best neighbouring eateries are the focus of this section.
