Festive Fancies: Our Top 6 Must-Try Christmas Foods

Christmas: it’s all about spending time with your loved ones, giving and receiving carefully chosen gifts… and of course, tucking into mouth-watering, heart-warming food. If you’re anything like us, you’ll have spent the last few weeks dreaming of a festive feast fit for Saint Nicholas himself – complete with turkey, stuffing and all the trimmings.

But beyond the traditional roast? There’s a world of alternative festive fare out there that would make a welcome addition to any Christmas table. So, to get you inspired to try something different this year, we’ve rounded up a few of our best-loved European Christmas foods.

Get that festive feeling with Blue-Roads Touring

There’s something special about winter: the nights draw in, mornings become frosty, and a hush falls over many of Europe’s landscapes. The approach of winter also means that the festive season is drawing near once again. For many, it really is the most wonderful time of the year, as we look forward to good times spent with family and friends over some filling festive fare. The familiar tinkle of Christmas songs can be heard as we begin the search for the perfect gift for our loved ones – and there’s always a party to look forward to!

Why not try something a little bit different this winter and head off on a tour of some of Europe’s most festive destinations with Blue-Roads Touring? We’ve got a new range of delightful winter-time tours which are bound to get you into the spirit of the season.
