So whats the main course you like the best. Miine is pot roast with spaetzle and red gabbage. Saurbratten is ok but I prefer plain old pot roast.
While were at it whats your favorite ethnic cuisine. For me that easy. Itallian hands down with German conmng in second. Im a real meat and potatoes guy.
Hehe - there is no way I could pick a single dish. It depends too much on my mood, the weather, the time of the year (although a lot of dishes I would favour in any situation are likely to involve dark meat like beef, duck, deer).
Regarding regional cuisine, I would also go for Italian food as it has to offer so much along all dimensions of a meal starters, salads, main courses in all variations, deserts (!!) and of course some fantastic wines to go with the food. Also Italian food offers a great mixture of down-to-earth food and some more delicate stuff.
GAH ... I am getting really hungry now
steak and ale pie with chips ~:)
my moms Rice and Chicken
Beef. Beef. Beef. And more Beef. Although, Chicken also edges its way in.
T-bone steak is tasty, I would say that is my favourite.
i like lasagna to, my ethnic diss is African/portuguese 2nd is italian and 3rd is chinese
favourite food is gotta be my mom´s home made pizza...
as for cuisine i think the Portuguese cuisine is the best in the world....with italian comming in 2nd.
Portuguese is specially good if you´re a "meat and potatoes" kinda guy like you said Gawain...check it out.
Beef steak, medium rare with herbed mashed potato with a bowl of salad mixed with balsamic vinegar. Hmmm sounds gorgeous :charge:
Rack of ribs w/ BBQ Sauce and chips.
Sushi and sake
a bowl of miso, some warm greem tea, 4-5 nice hand rolls and miscellaneous nigiri (i prefer shrimp, tuna, salmon yellowtail), and a couple bottles of hot rice wine
ichi ~:cheers:
Well as much as love Japan the only thing that stopped me from staying there was the food ~:) Like I said Im a meat and potatoes man and you dont see much of those there. Hey Ichi you see how much a Kobe steak costs? I rememeber an itallian resturant over there. It looked like Itallian food and was quite good but it sure didnt taste like Itallian food ~D
The women are quite edible and delicious though.
Any type of fish, but preferably Salmon or Tuna, marinated or not.
Plain un-buttered rice.
Green salad with rasberry dressing.
Any sort of drink, maybe Seltzer water, quenches thirst...
My girlfriend makes an amazing steak seasoned with Spanish spices, with a side of spiced chicken in a sauce, with potatoes and gravy on the side, and a nice chicken caesar salad... ~:) mmm...I'm going to ask her to make it for lunch for me tomorrow ~D
Mrs ichi and I have been saving up for over two years for our planned trip. A night out for sushi and sake usually sets us back quite a bit more than a mexican fiesta would.Quote:

Grilled fish, no sauces or anything like that, just a bit of olive oil and garlic added.
My favorite ethnic cousine is Mexican. I could eat fajitas de pollo all the time. In fact, my favorite cousine would be Mediterranean, but since that's more like a native cousine for me, Mexican is the next best thing.
Hehe ... that reminds me of a conversation we had with a guy at the tourist information at Beppu in Japan.Quote:

Of course that was all in good fun, but my wife who grew up in a family that almost literally worships potatoes his comments were a bit "disturbing" ~D
Steak, pasta, mashed potatoes ~D
Sushi and lots of it. :bow:
fresh yellow fin tuna, mixed in with white cheese sauced fettachine.
or fresh whole snapper, filled with herbs and preferebly small prawns and mud crab meat, marinated in a fine south australian shiraz or cab sav, then baked over half a day at a low temperature.
thanks,
dizzy
Hare. Pobably the best meat one can ever get ones teeth in. Properly cooked it can beat stuff like chateaubriand single-handedly.
Hmm, Thai, chinese, Indian and Mexican are my favourite's, don't like Italian very much apart from pizza obviously but that's really just Italian cheese on toast.
A big bowl of brown Basmati rice with vegetables. Dump a can of salmon on top and bury the whole thing in a painful amount of hot peppers and a bit of plain yogurt. And some good bread on the side.
I ate this for breakfast and dinner every day for years. My buddy called it The Food of the Gods. It was the only thing he ever saw me eat. And I always looked forward to my next meal.
My favourite meal is a 'Gawain of Orkeny'. :)
I lke pies,
Pastry, meat, gravy, vege an potatoes all in 1 12inch deep pan pie,
With some chips "chunky fries" or potatoes on the side,
With a nice glass of milk :)
Cant be beaten
I don't know how it's called in English, so: GAH!
Steak and Kidney pie. No disrespect Beruit but I think you will find THAT is the true food of the Gods. And they have Cornish pasties for lunch, yum.
As for ethnic, Indian, obviously. Get the cuzza in! Though my sister in law does really really good Iranian food (why oh why was my wife not also paying attentiion when my mother in law did the cookery lessons...?)
Steak and Kidney pie slaughters my goat, but I'm going with a nice, jumbo, double-layered poutine. If I'm feeling adventurous, I'll exchange the gravy for bacon and try to eat it before it congeals.Quote:

Damn, tough call.
It's a tie between veal cutlet parmesan w/pasta, preferably spaghetti (size 8) w/eggplant as a veggie and my dear old mum's homemade lasagna... it's sinfully good.
Taco shop!
Followed by Japanese; Italian; and various curries from the Middle East, India, and Japan.
Sometimes nothing but a pizza will do.
Curry, no question about it. I normally go for a meat Du Piaza with mushroom pilau rice, but I'm not picky.
