André and Miroki are joined by André’s younger brother Gilbert – and his two young sons Tristan and Kylin – to talk about the challenges and surprises of travelling through Europe with a self-described picky eater. Gilbert explains how his family balances adventurous eating with food aversions, texture sensitivities and the reality that sometimes not everyone wants to eat at the same restaurant.
They also dig into how childhood food experiences shape our tastes, why “picky eater” can mean very different things to different people, and how a little flexibility can help families create great travel memories without turning every meal into a battle.
One family member loved escargot so much he ordered it for dessert – and a unanimous family verdict on which country had the best food.
