About the Taste Map

The taste map is a food checklist for the world. Every country has its most famous dish and its best-known street food – biryani and pani puri in India, shorshe ilish and fuchka in Bangladesh, sushi and takoyaki in Japan – each with a short note on what it is. Tick the ones you’ve tried and the country fills in on the world map. If you’ve marked countries on the Visited Places Map, it reminds you what to try from the places you’ve been.

How to use it

  1. 1 Find a country in the list or pick one from the buttons.
  2. 2 Tick the dish and the street food you’ve tried; the country colours in on the map.
  3. 3 Look at “You’ve been here” for dishes from countries you’ve visited but not tasted yet.
  4. 4 Share your taste map on WhatsApp, Facebook, X and more, or copy the link.
