Foreign foods

[Ryan²]

What foods from around the world do you enjoy? I love a good Thai or Mexican.

[Lilith]

I can find something I enjoy in almost all ethnicities.

[osuche]

I think I can speak for both Steph and myself when I say that "THAI RULES"

Is that men, or food, Lil? :p

[Lilith]

Yes;)

[musketeer]

You can't beat a good hot curry:slurp: it may make your rear end feel a bit :hot: the morning after but it's worth it!

[Ryan²]

osuche, I have found that both Thai food as well as the people are lovely. Infact, I hardly have one criticism that is Thai related. Loved the country when I was there in 2001.

[Steph]

OMG, you are speaking for me, osuche! I had the BEST Pad Thai last night, however IAKG just mentioned Japanese to me this afternoon and I'm going to head to a local Japanese restaurant soon. However, WI and I were discussing the merits of Middle Eastern food today and I'm really craving tabouli!

And then I wonder why I'm always hungry. :jester:

[Sharni]

Chinese food does it for me...MmmmmMmmmmmmmm

[Teddy Bear]

Chinese and Italian are my favorites.

But I enjoy all types of food.





Except seafood - yuck! - and I live in the 'Ocean State'. Go figure....

[sillyme]

I'm most fond of Indian food, but also like Chinese, Japanese, Italian, German, Middle Eastern... aw hell, I just like food! (is it any wonder why I'm the large economy size? :))

[lakritze]

Love the varieity.I'm glad I live in a very multiculturial city.Love Spanish Tapas,Thai, Japanese,German,Mddle Eastern,Indian,Just about everything.

[CunningLinguist]

I love sushi, hell I love oriental food in general, but shushi is the best!

Can I claim that I like mexican food even though I live in Texas and therefore it wouldn't be considered foreign food?

[Ryan²]

Yuck. Sushi my ass.

Don't knock it till you've tried it, I used to think the same but then I tried at and it's not that bad at all - I'll be eating it again.

There is a Mexican food place out here called "Taco Sal's". The food is great! Be prepared to fast before and after, though. It's got everything in it and there are large portions. It's a little hole-in-the-wall place that has been there for years. I'm also fond ofvariations of Cappellini Pom'doro. (Sp?)

[BIBI]

Just give me all the stuff that is bad for me...

Perogies
Cabbage Rolls
Goulash
Schnizel

I love food from the Baltic Region

P'raps you should - eating avocodo is a good way to pack on some pounds.

[Oldfart]

There is a lot of fusion food here on the edge of Asia.

Some great, some complete crap.

[Lilith]

sounds like plenty of delicious choices Steph I am sure I will find some things similar here!!!

[Steph]

I'm there!

I am dying to go to this place but have to wait until my next day off because that's from their yummy dinner menu.

When are you going?

[Lilith]

Friday...surprise dinner for a friend of Mr. Lil's

[Steph]

Yum! We'll compare notes on Monday if I do go on Sunday.

After this meal out, it'll be Middle Eastern.

[ShadowDancer]

Mexican, Italian, and am willing to try most others. Indian is pretty good too...I LOVE Chinese food--I even know a couple here who own a great lil' restaurant and I eat there alot!

[vampeyes]

I lovvvve Mexican something about that lovely tan skin and dark hair.... oh I mean those nice peppers and spices lol Italian is also very good and I go for some Chinese every now and again but of course now that I am in the middle of no where.. I probably won't be eating much of any "foreign" foods
