    Maybe anon is from a country with a shitty currency and the only affordable food he found is McDonald’s garbage.

      Or maybe anon is not used to fine dining at 3* Michelin restaurants.

          Why would you eat anything else on your holidays? You can eat comfy food at home all year long in your local restaurants.

            Totally agree in some way, I also try to eat the best food I can when I’m visiting a place, but price is definitely a factor here. You can find fucking amazing food in many places for very cheap.

              Agreed. I travel to see things and experience life in another area. I want to go where a local would go after a long day at work or when a college student is homesick for home cooking, not where a local would go to propose marriage.

              If I want super fancy food, I have options near home. I want “authentic” food to truly experience the culture.
