from Travel Goals Podcast · host Portia Jones - travel journalist, podcaster and guidebook author

Is San Antonio the best foodie city in the USA? In this immersive, on-location episode, presenter Portia Jones and Producer Luke Jones eat their way through San Antonio, Texas, exploring the restaurants, bars, food halls and local food spots that make the Alamo City one of America's most exciting culinary destinations. Named a UNESCO Creative City of Gastronomy, San Antonio is a must-visit destination for food lovers, blending Mexican, Tex-Mex, Spanish, German and Hill Country traditions with a fast-evolving modern dining scene.   From authentic San Antonio tacos and Tex-Mex to BBQ, ceviche, burgers, inventive small plates and Michelin-recognised fine dining, there's far more to the city's food scene than the famous River Walk and BBQ eats.   Join us as we speak with chefs, bar owners and winemakers and discover where locals really rate. We'll explore some of the best restaurants in San Antonio, sip margaritas and Texan wines, visit buzzing bars and food halls, and uncover the places you need to know about if you're planning a foodie trip to San Antonio.   Tune in for what to eat, what to order and why San Antonio might just be the best food city you're not talking about yet. Along the way, we'll be meeting with plenty of locals who live and breathe San Antonio as they tell you the story of one of the USA's fastest-growing cities and why you need to add it to your travel bucket list now.   Huge thanks to Visit San Antonio and TTM World for supporting and collaborating with the Travel Goals Podcast.   ********   Hi, I'm your podcast host, Portia Jones [nickname Pip Jones].
