Plus, it’s such a safe and fun spot for families that not you, not your toddlers, or your teens will be bored on your trip. Kids will most likely be thrilled to try all the amazing ramen options, but you can motivate them to be a bit more daring (make a game out of it) and try amazing fish dishes and fresh sushi. Also, joining a tea ceremony and learning about traditional attire and tea-making processes can be fun for all older kids and adults.

These are easy recipes that will find their way into your everyday menu at home and teach your kids plenty about cooking. And for adults, there’s always delicious Chianti wine, perfect for the end of the day.

This spot might be famous for beaches and partying, but its foodie scene is perfect for everyone, families included. Start by ordering a classic Italian lunch menu with a signature Miami twist. You’ll get to taste all the authentic Northern and Southern Italian dishes but in a modern and fun way. For dinner, you can choose one of the many Cuban-style street food options you can find speckled around the city. Miami is probably the most practical family foodie destination that will treat you to amazing food and many other fun things to do for the entire.
