Now, let’s get on to visually devouring The Flash Pack’s pick of the 17 Delish Street Food Dishes to Try Before You Die…<\/p>\n
1. Som Tam – Thailand<\/strong><\/p>\n Fresh and crunchy, this Papaya salad is an uber healthy street food option and encapsulates all the flavours of Thailand<\/a> in one dish. Boom.<\/p>\n 2. Bu\u00f1uelos – Spain<\/strong><\/p>\n Instead of going for the standard Churros, next time you\u2019re in Spain try Bu\u00f1uelos instead. Deliciously deep-fried dough balls, sometimes hiding a melt-in-the-mouth piece of pumpkin inside when described as con calabaza<\/em>. These little gems are crazy popular in Spain\u2019s coastal city of Valencia, especially during the craziness of March\u2019s Las Fallas<\/em> Festival.<\/p>\n Related: Enjoy some retro glamour on our Spain Vespa adventure<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 3. Pesce Fritto \u2013 Italy<\/strong><\/p>\n Italy, of course, had to be included in the realm of street food. A mirriad of lightly battered seafood in a handy cone makes for a tasty treat whilst meandering through the backstreets of Italy\u2019s coastal towns and cities. \u00a0All made fresh and dependent on the catch of the day, this is one street vendor you definitely don\u2019t want to miss.<\/p>\n 4. Ash e Reshteh – Iran<\/strong><\/p>\n If crispy fried treats aren\u2019t for you, perhaps you\u2019d prefer this very healthy and heart-warming persian noodle soup. With tasty greens such as spinach, mint, coriander and parsley alongside\u00a0a m\u00e9lange of chickpeas, lentils and onions, you get one of Iran\u2019s most popular street food dishes.<\/p>\n 5. Vada Pav \u2013 India<\/strong><\/p>\n This is Mumbai\u2019s typical burger – veggie burger of course. Pretty much a potato fritter in a bread bun. Expect the usual rainbow of indian spices and a splash of spicy garlic chutney. Add a dusting of paprika and you get to street food heaven baby.<\/span><\/p>\n Related:\u00a0The delights and challenges of dining alone<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 6. Chivito al Pan \u2013 Uruguay<\/strong><\/p>\n A steak sandwich on steroids is probably the best way to describe this beast. This street food option is probably the cheapest and most authentic way to taste uruguay\u2019s famous beef. Not only that but there\u2019s bacon, ham, boiled or fried egg, mozzarella, salad, tomatoes and (breathe) peppers all slapped between two mayo-slathered slices of bread. Just a bit of a mouthful.<\/p>\n 7. Ceviche – Peru<\/strong><\/p>\n Ceviche has been all over the foodie scene in 2014 and is still cruising on in 2015. Now in swanky restaurants across the world, this street food can still be found in the coastal towns of Peru (and in fact most of central and South America<\/a>). A\u00a0fresh, salty and lemoney-cured delight. Plus, its on the good side of the healthy scale \u2013 hurrah!<\/p>\n Related trip:\u00a0Peru group tour for solo travellers in their 30s & 40s<\/a><\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n 8.

Top your hot dog with crispy dried and fresh onions, pickles and Danish remoulade. Super godt!<\/p>\n 9. Zapiekanka – Poland<\/strong><\/p>\n Kind of like Poland\u2019s take on a pizza. A half of a baguette, covered in all sorts of ingredients but typically mushroom and cheese and sometimes meaty too. Hugely popular and usually covered in ketchup \u2013 give it a try and love it forever.<\/p>\n 10. Pakora – India<\/strong><\/p>\n You\u2019ll find Pakora\u2019s all over India (and the UK for that matter). Vegetables are covered in batter, deep fried and served with spicy chutney.

Trust me, works every time.<\/p>\n 12. Currywurst – Germany<\/strong><\/p>\n Trust Germany to represent in the street food arena with some seriously tasty sausage.

Blinchiki – Russia<\/strong><\/p>\n Kind of like French crepes and can be ordered either sweet or savoury. Smoked salmon and caviar would be our choice \u2013 divine darrrling.<\/p>\n 14. Hopper – Sri Lanka<\/strong><\/p>\n How about an edible bowl made from rice flour and coconut milk for brekkie? You can enjoy them plain or make them even better with an egg dropped into the middle and cooked to perfection.

Mont Lin Ma Yar – Burma<\/strong><\/p>\n \u2018Mont Lin Ma Yar\u2019 translates in English to the \u2018husband and wife snack\u2019, which is lovely seeing as this snack is made of two halves sandwiched together (aww).
