Your Favourite Three Cuisines
 
Hi everyone,

Yes, I deliberately left the title broad...feel free to nominate an entire country/self-governing landmass, a specific region, or a little from both columns.

Defend your choices if you'd like, but I'm creating this primarily to hear suggestions for future travels.

To start, my top three (based solely on places visited, and in no particular order) are:

-Mexico
-Japan
-Turkey

Regionally, I would say:
-Manado, Indonesia (spicy, smoked seafood)
-Oaxaca, Mexico (just about everything thus far)
-Hunan, China (spicy; ample vegetables and seafood)

---

Which are your favourites?

Italian
”chinese” (best on USA soil for me)

oh smeg I like everything. Or rather I like stuff from everywhere I’ve tried. Only stuff I won’t re-eat is mayonnaise based sauces and live drunken shrimps. And I’m not going to ever try horse or dog.

Those mayo-based sauces are quite popular in East Asia!

I have never found anything very special about food in Brasil, except I love their grass fed beef, and the way they prepare it - churrasco.

I feel bad leaving French off the list, and French country cooking will always have a special place in my heart and stomach, but after our last few visits to Italy, I think I prefer Italian food and wine :eek:

One of my friends recently moved to KCMO...could you recommend any recent bbq openings? I told him about Arthur Bryant's, but beyond that, no ideas. Cheers!
