Top 10 cities to visit based on their food

I don't Live To Eat, but I do enjoy & appreciate good food.

Here's the Top 10 Foodie Cities (according to FORBES magazine):
1. New York City
2. Las Vegas
3. Los Angeles
4. Paris
5. Bologna, Italy
6. Singapore
7. Palermo, Sicily
8. Barcelona
9. London
10. Sidney, Australia

I've had some good food in NYC & Vegas, although I'm always game to go back! But I think my #3 place would be Palermo & not just for the food. I've wanted to go there since Robb & Andy went there on their missions. But seriously, there aren't many places I wouldn't want to go & since food is such a part of most cultures, it's one of the highlights of my travels to taste the local cuisine.

I watched a couple of shows about Beijing & Xian recently & although Chinese food is near the bottom of my food list, I think Xian will be very fun. They are famous for their dumplings & have a Muslim neighborhood where the food is supposed to be fantastic. As for Beijing, it's a big enough city I think I'll be ok & if not they have a decent selection of American chains.
