USA holidays

Whatever you fancy eating, you’ll find it in the USA but the country is perhaps best known for its love of BBQ food and steak houses. You’ll find a large number of fast food places, ideal for dropping into for a quick bite to eat and tasty variations of your favourite snack foods in the local grocery stores. There are also restaurants serving up tastes from around the world but each state also offers a speciality dish. Sample cheesy, deep-dish pizza in Chicago, tuck into fresh lobster in Maine or grab a classic bagel filled with cream cheese in New York.
