Who are you people?

Daniel and Emily. Just another couple with a dream to to travel the world.

We met in 2018 at a Chipotle by our college, James Madison University. Just a year later we were in our first country, Italy, and 3 years later, we were married. And a short 7 years later we had our first child and had been to 25+ countries and 6 continents!

Early into our relationship we experimented with cooking new dishes and exploring different cuisines. Dinner at Chile’s became dinner at the local Indonesian restaurant. Trips to nearby National Parks became more complex road trips out of state. By 2020, we began to crave different experiences. Combining food with a love for travel lead us to our mission: Visit every country to eat their National Dish.

Why National Dishes?

There is something so beautiful and interesting about an entire country’s cuisine being defined by a single dish. Years and years of culture, identity, and history culminated into a single culinary creation. Whether it be Tacos from Mexico or Adobo from The Philippines, a single bite of a National Dish provides so much insight into the people and identity of that country.

That is why we have made it our goal. To understand and experience as much we can in the little time we have.
