Right now on main street in my town we're undergoing a third Greco-Persian war with two differing pizza joints competing. The classic one with it's delicious greasy low sauce pizza from the Greeks who have been here for awhile.
And a new joint run by a couple Iranian dudes who are making things New Haven style with thin dry crust.
The winner is the customers.
@Monkey:
The area where Buddhism got it's start is like… one of the worst parts of India. Like you're basically visiting the non-warzone parts of the Congo.
Like I know you're having a laugh at the first worlder stomachs not being able to handle Mexican street food, but Mexico is basically Norway compared to Bihar. Like we're talking severe food poisoning type things. I heard a story about a lady from China who accidentally was drinking tap water in her India hotel, and has had stomach problems ever since.
The richer nicer parts of India are supposably areas near Punjab and Delhi, Mumbai, and the southern cone in the Dravidian speaking areas (kinda like South America lol). Kerala especially is supposed to be waaaaaaaaaaay ahead of the rest of the country.
Also Sri Lanka where people are actually still Buddhist is like wayyyyy beyond India and most of it's states (to say nothing of Pakistan, Nepal, or Bangladesh). Actually Sri Lanka according to the HDI is basically the same as Mexico, except with a much tinier area and population which probably means on average it's better than where you live unless you're in a richer part of Mex! Somehow! In spite of the rest of the region being poo!
Like I dunno, South Asia has some nicer parts but you might want to not focus in on the Buddhism birth area.
You're not supposed to drink tap water anywhere in India, everyone I know boils it first then leaves it to cool overnight
Goa is pretty nice, my cousin went to Ladakh recently and told me it was beautiful. Delhi not so much but it's close to a lot of grand historical sites (like the Red Fort and Taj Mahal) so it's worth visiting anyway
I'm travelling to Argentina tomorrow.
Will I meet Skadi?
In food terms, which parts/cities/areas of the US do ya'll count as neccesities?
El Paso has already gotten the stamp of approval, and i'm thinking Louisiana deserves a spot.
And if Zeph is to be believed the New York area has the quasi-Italian stuff on lock.
Kansas City, Missouri got amazing barbeque, very underrated. So if you for some reason would go to Missouri, the franchise Gates is the place you should visit. Philly cheesesteaks is also a must, but if you're gonna eat it, you gotta go to Philadelphia, there is simply no better than there. I don't know about the Chicago-style pizza elsewhere, but I'd recommend it very hard, no matter where you go if you find it. Just bear in mind that you must not under any circumstances use knives and forks if you eat pizza in New York. Pick the slice up and fold it.
How far to South would you be willing/interested going to?
I'm thinking most of the countries that border Sweden: Germany, Poland, The Baltics. Add the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, the Czech Republic and United Kingdom and that should be it. The only country here I'm not interested in is Denmark, I've been there hundreds of times.

Or just hold it? I don't know anyone who folds, unless it's like super greasy you might need two hands I guess.
Then again Connecticut is kinda it's own sub-pizza culture, so maybe they really do fold them in NYC. I've just never seen anyone do it here at any local mom&pop joints or New Haven style places.
For your gastronomic purposes Wolfwood here's a handy article and maps concerning American pizza.

Don't you want to go somewhere sunny with loud people? Neglecting some great Euro stuff there mate.
Eating pizza with a fork and knife is a mortal sin for anyone over the age of 7.
Folding the slice is indeed a New York thing.

It was just something I picked up in the corner of my eye when I went there. Confirming this, a couple of weeks ago, I read an article in which they said you are actually supposed to fold it. If you google ''how to eat pizza in New York'' ( which I just did ) you will find plenty of people do that. Last year they made a big deal out of how the mayor ate his pizza, ( with silverware ) saying he destroys New York's image, basically. I guess New Yorkers are very serious about their image and customs and to be honest, I understand them. New York is a great city, despite being so immensly diverse, they have a sense of pride and unity, even if the mentality of an officer worker on upper Manhattan is very different from a kid in South Bronx. They all agree that their city is the best and that New Jersey sucks ass.
New Jersey is really just the scapegoat for the entire metro area lol.
Any and all negative traits we all share, we just pretend Jersey embodies.
Being by far the least glamorous kinda made it natural to shoulder the burden.

Damn, I feel bad for those people now. Newark and Camden sucks, I pretty much know that, but what is it that makes it stick out so much that everyone hates it?
Have I created a food porn thread?
Yes, yes you have.
Anyway, Wolfwood, if you want good food, why not take a trip over here?
Portuguese food is not as known as Italian or French, but it´s honestly as good, if not better, and it isn´t as expensive as both those places, so you can end up with your stomach filled and your wallet in the same condition.
Best fish in Europe, and a lot of good meat too.
Huh so you're not a Texan? But yeah the rustic nature of Portuguese cuisine does appeal to me.
Lots of hearty stews and soups as far as i can tell. Pretty smooth wine too.
And i'm going to go out on an ethnic stereotype of a limb here. Probably lots of pork too.
@Monkey:
It's not quasi-Italian if you're actually going to the right places. There's good pizza everywhere, but you mean like the cuisine? No worry. Little Italy in NYC and all sorts of little places everywheres else has what you need. Even in my town we have an extremely good place and I live between Bridgeport and New Haven rather than anywhere super close to NYC itself.
I meant it in a positive way. For me the various brands of fusion, adaptations and/or bastardization have done alot of good for the Italian kitchen. I mean sure Italian food is great, but it's so damn pigheadedly conservative, with lots of weird taboos and don'ts. Like i'm currently reading a book about southern Italian food right now, and it notes so many little taboos, like for instance that in some areas it's considered a major no no to combine meat and cheese, like what the fuck Italy, get with the times already. It's not 1870, using a smidge of cream won't ruin it, adjusting or updating an old recipe doesn't make it wrong, just get that Italian branch out of the roman ass guys.
But hey! Atleast the classic recipes atleast give a good template to build from.
Also the NYC area being the most immigrant heavy part of the world means you can probably find the food of absolutely anything you could imagine.
In fact I think I just sold you on it with that line alone lol. If you can get over the urban transition you'd be in gastronomic heaven.
Yeah it certainly is neat to think that you could find a little slice of anywhere.
Even more so to have all of those cuisines mixing and mingling in a "small" area.
You're not supposed to drink tap water anywhere in India, everyone I know boils it first then leaves it to cool overnight
One does wonder what the point of having tap water is, if it's just an unusable deathtrap.
Just bear in mind that you must not under any circumstances use knives and forks if you eat pizza in New York. Pick the slice up and fold it.
I spent a few seconds processing that, before i remembered that you guys buy your pizzas pre-sliced.
In those brief seconds i envisioned the American way of tearing pizzas into pieces with their hands.
@Monkey:

Well, I want it to be close to home since it would be my first real trip alone, plus I won't have to worry as much about different cultures etc. I'd love to travel further at some point though.

Funnily enough NYC proper is actually pretty compact. It's not hard to get around except for the energy buzz of so many other people constantly around you can be exhausting.

Traveling is no fun unless the culture's are different imo.
It's why in America we usually don't count Canada if people ask us if we've been abroad (it's basically the same exact country with the South swapped out for Quebec).

Well you gotta get the water you wanna boil in the first place, from somewhere
Also you can still use it for other things. Cleaning and whatever.

It actually happens. Some of the pizza joints don't slice the pizza and since I basically never eat it with fork and knife I just tear it up and eat the slabs. Eating Chicago style pizza like that however, is fucking impossible and you get second grade burns on your fingers when you try it. There was actually a swedish student going to my high school back in the day and he told me that you guys never slice it and that was really perplexing to most of us. He also told me you guys eat kebab on your pizza sometimes, which makes absolutely no sense.

Ah kebab pizza, the traditional hangoverfood of my people.
Can't choose betwenn kebab and pizza? Why not combine them, and if you are that kind of guy you can also top it with french fries and bearnaise sauce, in addition to the two kebab sauces and salad. I've never had it, but it's a student favorite
You're not gonna die you'll just get stomach problems.

So kebab is like a common fastfood for you guys? I mean, here it's basically kebab for itself and pizza at other places. That shit sounds really greasy though; and I say that as somebody who regularly ate fried chicken and waffles at night when I was young.

Four things you can always get in Sweden. Kebab, pizza, bearnaise sauce and french fries.
But yeah kebab is common as fuck. At some point it was our number one takeout, but i reckon it's still a top three contender.

Just a regular saturday night in Swedenville:ninja:
Personally i have no desire whatsoever to try one.
And now, this thread becomes a world food topic ? Nice.
If you go to Bahia (or any northeast/north state in Brazil) you can find some really good tradicional food like "Vatapá" or "Acarajé". The only thing I liked was "Lambreta" a oyster soup. The northeast cuisine is said to be very spice with it´s peppers and dendê oil, but when I went there I didn't find it too spice, not like indian food.
The south region is kinda tricky, if you go to Uruguay or Argentina, the BBQ are better, but the "Chimarrão" is a "must drink" if you visit Brazil (specially the south part).
One thing I really like is when you go to a birthday party and, instead of finding generic junk food products in the table, you find traditional foods like "Pães de Queijo" or "Coxinhas" or even "Brigadeiros" surrounding the cake. It gives more originality to the party.
In my city though ? I don´t know if this is from São Paulo, but I really like "Escondidinho".

I've been to various pizza joints that have had clearly mid-eastern people running them, but I've never encountered anyone…Greek, Arab, Persian or Turkish who put kebab/souvlaki on pizza.
It does actually sound maybe good? But I can't picture the pizza involved. Like it would have to be very thick pizza no?
You know what would work better? Gyro pizza.
--- Update From New Post Merge ---
Kebap has become very popular where I'm at, but it sounds like I should visit Sweden some day. I've never been to Europe at all actually.
lol Kebab/Souvlaki is not from Sweden. They're enjoying it like we do.
It's eastern Medd (primarily) food.
@Monkey:

I never liked american pizza, maybe because I lived in a small town next to Baltimore. :ninja:
But I really love São Paulo pizza, for me is the best pizza in Brazil.

Thick as in stacked with toppings. But the crust is almost always very thin. Personally i think it's just a natural progression from our love of pirogs and openface sandwiches, where loading on everything that's in the fridge is the norm.

Just some dudes singing about kebabpizza. Seemed appropriate for the topic.
Took a first swing at another Swedish speciality today, kroppkakor.
It's essentially small balls made of cooked, grated potatoes, flour and eggs. That's then stuffed with lots fried pork and onions, and flavoured with allspice. To which you'd serve some clarified butter and lingonberries. Not too shabby in all it's simplicity.

Well I've been to NYC before but my husband hasn't, we basically have the weekend. So, 2 days.
Last I've been we had a bus taking us to each place, this time were planning to subway and bus, so I'm looking for good walkable itineraries.
Meet up with some AP New Yorkers and go have a nice meal somewhere. Maybe have a drink.
Me personally i'd like to visit a jewish deli. Those sandwiches seems ridiculously good.

Holy crap yes I want to go to a kosher deli so bad, I have a hankering for a good sandwich.
My hubs is a travel nut so we'll probably be at the NY Times Travel Show, and we gotta plan our itineraries around being near a mosque and halal food, so it's gonna be pretty complicated and rushed methinks. Anyone going to that event?

-Little Italy (eat there)
-I'd say walk on the Highline but it's January so eh, maybe do anyway unless you can see yourself visiting during warmer times of year soon
-Times Square
-See a Broadway show (probably too late for that)
-Mostly just walk and take the crazy wonder in around midtown

Please. Tell me. Where.
Oh and thanks MK!

Otafuku! 8D I'd suggest since you want to try more things in New York, to just get a plate of Takoyaki for a treat. The rest of their food is also good BUT very very filling. Oh and careful of the heat! The Takoyaki is super hot! Ask my husband above about the route and he'll give you a pretty detailed description about which sub to take to be there within 15-20 minutes
femme. you can get takoyaki in toronto. :P
I even bought some frozen in London Ontario last weekend. (then forgot it at my friends) :P
hey. Do they have any okonomoyaki places in NY?
The same place makes okonomoyaki Lis! Here is their menu http://www.otafukuny.com (you don't make it yourself if that's what you are looking for though)

And in Providence, the point is NYC and having goodies during the trip.
You should probably try to get reservations at the most interesting restaurant you can find
Me i'd want to visit Aquavit, Ivan's ramen, Il buco and Junoon.

The coolest places don't need reservations, they're little hole in the wall joints that serve up quick delicious shit (which Ivan's Ramen seems like)
Ideally you'd want to both no? You hit up the hole in the wall joints on your days out and about.
And then you take a whole night to enjoy a really nice restaurant. Y'know a whole, cohesive, three course meal, with the corresponding wines/beers. Really soaking up the atmosphere and getting to know whoever you are dining with.

My favourite place in Hong Kong was this cramped vegetarian place on a corner near the seaside where elderly people went for congee in the morning. They had the most amazing wonton soup..
And then this other place where a lady saw the hubs and I struggling to divide a dumpling and walked over without being asked and promptly snipped our dumpling in two with a pair of scissors.
And true, Cap! I'm sure I can get takoyaki here but iunno, Chrissie made it sound so magical o_o

Like, when I go to texas, everyone makes sure I go for "real" mexican food. :3
I just got back from amsterdam, and though I enjoyed it, I wouldn't recommend it.
Edit: rereading this made me feel old. I think I've been stuck in the mountains too long, and have succumbed to a life of coffee and climbing.
That aside I've got my brothers wedding in South Africa (sigh) in March, Italy towards the end of summer (yay), and possibly California next year if I get my work placement (not so sure?).
Not really sure about any other trips, but things might happen if a bit of luck lands on my lap.
I guess if Italy falls through I can always go to Istanbul or India.
I've been in Olympia since November, I've had the opportunity to check out a few places here, as well Tacoma and Seattle.
Olympia - Lots of Asian restaurants, particularly Vietnamese. Found a couple of good pho places. Also lots of espresso shops. In every other parking lot. Favorite place to go so far is Bread Peddler, down the street from the capital building and near the farmer's market.
Tacoma - Your standard fare of chain restaurants. There is a place called Dorky's that is pretty rad. They have a pretty impressive beer selection. Also Dirty Oscar's Annex was pretty good. They have gigantic breakfast portions.
Seattle - Beautiful skyline, for obvious reasons. I have tried a few places at The Armory. I love going to the EMP Museum. They're supposed to have an exhibit on Star Wars costuming soon, and they have a really cool Indie game one right now.
I would love to hear about places I should check out around here, if anyone lives around the Pacific NW. I still want to check out Portland someday as well.
Well, Mexican food sucks north of here, I know that. Otherwise… I dunno.
I can attest to that. I haven't found any good Mexican food in Olympia. There is a place called Taco Time that I am told to avoid at all costs. Perhaps there are some decent Mexican food places in and around Seattle, but I haven't explored it much outside of the EMP museum, which is amazing, btw!
The BBQ, Tex-Mex, and Mexican food is good. Oh, and we really love breakfast tacos here.
Mmm breakfast tacos~
breakfast tacos (and kolaches too for that matter) don't exist in georgia and the only place you can get one is at sonic and nobody wants to do that bc they aren't that great there ;_;
Same over here….
Sigh, can't read signatures? Oh well… I guess i have to impart some knowledge Takes off the...wait i don't have anything in my hands. Fuck
Regarding the first question, My brother and i promised we would go to India together and i've felt the itch to return to Chicago this year. Apart from that i'm open to visit any other country. I like to get to know other places. Also, i've already been to the countries i dreamt to visit (Well, not dream but hope).
Now on México. As with any country we have a different type of cuisine in each state and we range in a wide variety of foods ranging from dishes composed of masa de tortilla in various presentations to insect kitchen (Which is fuckin delicious) to some excellent choices in "Drink till you black out". What? You're saying that's not food? Pfft, you must don't drink much son. Let me put on some dishes pictures in here.

TL;DR: México has a fuckload of beautiful landscapes, food, culture, Museums, People and even drink. We will blow your panties off and will leave you wanting for more. If you don't believe just google how much people has been bewitched by my beautiful country (That yes,it has been suffering so much cause of the drug war but we still walk with our head uphigh cause pain is one of the greatest joys of living). Here's one:
Great pictures! What part of Mexico are you from? I'm from Durango. I basically lived here for the first two years of my life.
My favorite Mexican dish has to be enchiladas rojas. My mom makes the best~

Canadian cuisine seems to be related to the same stuff they make in northern new england. Which is mostly bizarre fatty foods and maple syrup.
Though maybe that's Quebec food. That ol' New World French influence that oozes down into Vermont, Maine and New Hampshire.
I imagine Ontario cuisine consists of white bread and mayonnaise.
