Every guide exists to answer one question: if you had one meal in this country, what should it be — and how do you order it without pointing at a photo?
What a guide actually covers
01The dishes locals actually eat weekly — not the ones invented for tourist menus.
02Where to find them: street stalls, market halls, and the kind of place with no sign out front.
03What to say when you order, including the dish's local name, not a translated version.
04Regional differences — what's standard in the capital is often wrong two hours away.
The pay-what-you-want part
WHY
A good local food tip is worth more to some travelers than others. Pricing reflects that instead of pretending everyone values it the same.
HOW
Pick an amount at checkout — including nothing more than a token amount if you're stretching a budget.
