Compliments of this late summer/winter season, fellow FTers

Living in NYC much of the time I'm far too frequently made aware of various cuisines that have teamed up to produce a hapless array of meals. No, I'm not against "fusion" cuisine (if I like it, I'll eat it), and based on the wide array of nationalities in this city you can certainly stumble upon a hoot or two (in Woodside, there was a place with Filipino//Nepali/Indian cuisine), a place called Salt & Pepper sells "Spanish"/American/Indian/Pakistani foods and in Sunnyside I saw a Japanese/Nepali place. A traditional tea ceremony with yak butter, sure...

What are your thoughts on the broad-ranging "fusion" wave? Has it hit your city/country yet? Secondly, which cuisines do you never want/expect to see together?

Thanks,
TBS (or more currently, BuildingMyBento)
