For those passionate about food, it’s the perfect time to embark on a culinary adventure and uncover the world’s delicious offerings. To celebrate the long days and inspire fresh culinary creativity, Mercure’s Bucket List is packed with ideas for honing your cooking skills or mastering a signature dish to impress at your next gathering. “At Mercure hotels, our ambition is to connect guests with the local destination.

Food is one of the best ways you can immerse yourself in another culture – it allows us to expand our minds, fill our hearts and nourish the soul”, said James Wheatcroft, Global SVP Midscale Brands at Accor . “Our Bucket List is filled with wonderful hands-on learning experiences that allow travellers to dig deep into the local culture and fill their cups with the teachings of chefs, artisans, and farmers. Enjoying a favourite meal or ingredient is terrific – but when you learn how to prepare it, you can spread that joy and share the experience with others, which is truly an expression of love.
