Traditional chinese food is nothing like the chinese food we eat in north america. Did you know that Ginger Beed was actually invented in the city I live in, Calgary, Alberta Canada?

Maybe you ahve been to a real chinese food resturant, as I have for chinese new year. Things on the menu are shark soup, fish head, and these fucking gross crunchy/soft squiggly things that I had no idea what they were.

My family ate at City Wok in Palm Springs for like 4 out of 7 days a while back because it was so good, but thats the kind of chinese food were used to.

Food in Quebec City was pretty good. I haven't been around enough contries though.

Can't really judge food when eaten in your own country if you know what I mean, best and only way in my opinion is to go to a country and eat their traditional dishes the way they're supposed to be served/made.

To be honest I haven't been to places like Italy, India or Japan yet so I can't really comment but those are the places I'd LOVE to sample the foods and culture.......and ladiez...

All I can say is that I'm always happy with various Indian and Italian cuisines tho some dishes like Chicken Tikka Masala was invented in Britain, which strangely is the nations fave dish. Dats right, no more thinkin that Fish 'n' Chips is the most popular brit food, its officially Indian food!

Ja, I'm a big fan of Italian dishes - A good lasagna, chicken parmagean, or bolognaise meal always goes down well - Of course I'm probably eating variants a far cry away from the actual dishes made in Italy - But still, damn they're good.

Take a wild fuckin guess.

Yeah that's right assholes, Italy.

I'm a bit embarassed to admit it, but I actually like Northern Italian cuisine more than Southern cuisine. Somewhere my grandmother is rolling over in her grave.

Anyways, Southern Italy has great seafood dishes, of which I'm not a particularly big fan. I prefer the more meaty Northern dishes; proscuitto, veal, Bolognese sauce and the like. Northern Italy is also famous for balsamic vinegar and pesto sauce.

I've got those in my back yard every year. I don't have to travel to Turkey for a fresh tomato. oOo: If that's what's blowing your mind about Turkish food then I guess I'm not missing much.

America! Doesn't get much better than Ruth's Chris or Morton's.

it's totally different because it's original pizza, which is really a pretty basic affair,
you're mixed up the American/western style pizza where a can of dog food and
some pinapple chunks are generously dolloped over a plywood base.
