This unique travel website was just recently launched. It offers visitors the opportunity to learn about various cultures through cooking classes, culinary vacations, culinary cruises, guided tours, cooking parties and team building exercises. In addition, Epitourean.com invites users to submit cooking videos (via YouTube, for example) to share with people throughout the world. This is a great idea; Culinary Tourism is getting more and more popular these days. According to the Travel Industry Association of America, over 23 million Americans took a culinary vacation over the past three years and I was one of them.
