Restaurants in the Big Apple are among the best restaurants in the world, but a recent study does not include the city among the most “foodies” in the country. (@therivercafe)
In a recent analysis of more than 180 cities, New York, known worldwide for its culinary diversity, was surprisingly left out of the gastronomic top 10, coming in at number 20. While Orlando, famous for its numerous theme parks, has conquered the palates of lovers of good food and has been crowned the number one “foodie city” in the United States, according to a new ranking by the financial website WalletHub.

As the list continues, the favorites come from the West Coast with Portland, Sacramento, Miami and San Francisco occupying prominent positions. Florida was the only state to represent the East Coast in the top 10, with Tampa being its third entry on the list at No. 6. Following on the list are San Diego, Las Vegas, Austin and Seattle.
