10. Fondue

The fun behind this Swiss national dish is that you get to cook the meal yourself. Fondue is not only a rich and tasty course but also an amazing gastronomical experience to enjoy with friends and family. Whether you choose cheese, chocolate, or oil, fondue is a delicious melting adventure.

9. BBQ Ribs

I know what you’re thinking: what’s so special about ribs? Well, this is simply because you may be used to having such a heavenly dish regularly. BBQ ribs, in all their styles and forms, are worth tasting. They are unquestionably a monument of American cuisine, and no one should die without enjoying the messy experience of eating them.

8. Escargot

Do not let the fancy French name fool you, for escargot means snail. Usually prepared with garlic, butter and parsley, these land snails are a typical French appetizer and a real delicacy. If properly cooked, their texture is not chewy as you might think, but firm and smooth.

7. Ceviche

Sushi is not the only food with raw fish in it. Ceviche, a native dish from The Americas, is a seafood dish made with fresh raw fish which is cured with a citric juice. Beautifully spiced and accompanied by other typical South American ingredients, ceviche is perfect for a hot summer’s day.
