Away.com Editor Picks Three Not-To-Miss Culinary Adventures for Fall

For those looking for a perfect retreat, Away.com senior editor Kate Chandler picks three fall-friendly destinations replete with great weather and exciting culinary activities.

Wellfleet, Mass.: Oyster season is fast approaching, so whether you prefer hot sauce and crackers or fall foliage, our No. 9 pick, offers a bit of both.

Walla Walla, Wash.: Grape harvest is a must for food and wine lovers alike. Walla Walla, Wash., our No. 7 pick, plays host to fall harvest events such as wine lunches, vintner dinners and 5K races.

Buenos Aires, Argentina: When things start to cool down in the U.S. it's time to head south ... way south, to Buenos Aires, our No. 4 pick, where summer is just heating up. Late-night servings of steak and Malbec will give you the energy to tango until dawn.
