Mexico City takes the torta seriously. Turkey, pork leg, milanesa, chorizo, cheese, avocado - sometimes all of the above. We picked five torterías that show just how much can fit between two pieces of bread. → hubs.la/Q04zTf890

At any hour of the day in Buenos Aires, one can find a giant milanesa, a coffee and pastries, or a glass of vermouth alongside a Spanish tortilla. All of these things can be enjoyed at a nearly century-old spot that doubles as a staple of Porteño life: hubs.la/Q04xWZdh0

Sakanaya no Daidokoro, in Musashi Koganei, translates simply to “Fishmonger’s Kitchen.” It’s a fitting name that reflects the type of home-style Japanese food served here and speaks to the seafood-only main dish selection. hubs.la/Q04zSg3K0

Out of the 30,000 or so tons of olives that will be collected in Catalonia this year (depending on the weather), only a small percentage are harvested early for the production of this kind of premium olive oil – and it’s some of the best we’ve ever tried. hubs.la/Q04zSdSc0

Osaka's kissaten serve coffee with character: century-old donuts, kimchi sandwiches, fruit-topped pudding, and milk coffee shaken by hand. We picked seven classic Japanese coffee shops where the atmosphere is part of the order. → hubs.ly/Q04zSdTH0

Lamb’s cheek, tongue, brain, fresh herbs, tomatoes, spicy peppers, and cumin: İzmir’s kelle söğüş packs a lot into a little flatbread. At Meşhur Söğüşcü Tahir Baba, three generations of the Sivritepe family are keeping the tradition going. → hubs.la/Q04zSdZ00

At Joséphine Chez Dumonet in Paris, bœuf bourguignon arrives in a little Dutch oven, ready to be ladled tableside. Add Belle Époque mirrors, Bordeaux, and a Grand Marnier soufflé, and lunch becomes an occasion. → hubs.ly/Q04zSdF50

At Morelia’s in Guadalajara, the drinks come with free bar snacks, three generations of the Nuño family keep things running, and an accordion band might show up to play Mexican classics. Just another stop on our Guadalajara tour! → hubs.ly/Q04zSdqK0
