Eaten:<\/strong>\u00a0Eaten is Panorama\u2019s take on blending gastronomy with travel. For this section, we are specifically looking for nonfiction pieces which explore a specific meal eaten while travelling, or a particular dish and its history as connected to travel. Personal narrative is encouraged and these are primarily experiential essays, although other approaches might be relevant in some works. We are especially interested in global and diverse perspectives for this section.

These in-depth glimpses inside place through food offer something fresh to our readers. In your Submission, please include the food you are writing about and be specific about the way it is associated to either your own travel or travel in a historical context.
