:question:
Like Italian, Southern, Mexican, Polish (mine is Polish!)- you know. Steak? On the grill? :question:
I ate a lot of Mexican food at the factory. Lots of migrant workers worked there. Made the best food in the world. OK! Mexican food is my favorite!
Wait- this old Russian woman, Moytka, (my freind Nick used to plow her fields) made goat cheese in her woodstove oven! And real kick ass home made wine. And pierogis-dam.
Northern Europea (The northern European diet generally consists of a large serving of meat, poultry, or fish, accompanied by small side dishes of vegetables and starch. The traditional diet is high in protein , primarily from meat and dairy products). Steaks from an Aberdeen Angus are a particular favourite especially when served with mushrooms and onions.
Favorite ethnic foods in approximate order: Mexican, Italian, Creole/Cajun, Indian, Mediterranean, French, Middle American (i.e. hamburgers, American-style pizza), Japanese/sushi, Thai, Chinese (well, Americanized Chinese, I have little experience with authentic). Prefer high levels of spice. Just ate Venezuelan for the first time yesterday, it was good but much milder than Mexican.
All the local food I can eat: my special sister (a vegan) always asks me to try to cut down on red meat so I do.

I couldn't live without red meat. I'd kill a cow if I had to. :smile:
I had a vegan preaching at me earlier on today about how someone would take a parrot to the vets but they'd still eat at KFC. I ended up reminding him that he hadn't been bothered at all about the Saudi's use of slave labour and mistreatment of migrent workers when it came to the last world cup.

😁😁 My sister will no doubt be contacting you soon. 😉
I like southern foods, Mexican, Korean, Vietnamese, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Italian, German, Spanish, Moroccan, and a lot other. I like food, and I like cooking/baking it.

That is exactly why I didn't watch a single match of that tournament. I love soccer but not that much. 😳
America ruined Italian food, and Olive Garden is an abomination. Any truth to that?
I don't dine at restaurants very often, but when I do, it is usually Greek or Thai.

Not at all, Italy still exists and makes its own wonderful food.

Abomination may be too strong, but OG is not very good.

I usually call it Olive Garbage, and I don't remember if I got it from Mad Magazine or not.
toss up between chinese/japanese stir fry (rice based or noodles based)
and italian... pizza, or pasta dishes.
have been a chef in 2 different chinese restaurants. got to make myself a free meal on every shift :drink:
specific food: lemon cheesecake, which is the ultimate dessert.

QuoteOn 27 February 2007, Famous Brands, which owns the Wimpy franchise in South Africa, announced that it had acquired Wimpy UK. Having acquired the brand, Famous Brands has rebranded Wimpy in the United Kingdom, to bring it in line with Wimpy South Africa. The "new" logo is the one that had been used by Wimpy UK from the 1960s until the 1980s. In November 2009, Famous Brands began to upgrade its 170 locations in the United Kingdom to resemble United States-style diners. As of December 2023, 64 restaurants remain in the United Kingdom
interesting, apparently I'm wrong and there are 64 wimpy's in the uk, but none near me...
however yeah south africa appears to be Wimpy HQ. enjoy your chips :smile:

Mexican food is definitely hard to beat! The flavors are so vibrant and comforting, it's no wonder it tops your list.
