What foods do you love?

[Jake_Sully]

With all the recent threads on best foods, I thought of making a thread where we can share some foods we love that aren't exactly as popular in other parts of the world.

So, what do you like, that might not be popular for other board members since they don't live where you are and you highly recommend?

I'd recommend:

Pancit



Samosa



Dosa



Clam Chowder



And I wouldn't be American if I didn't recommend this if you haven't tried it:

My mums turkey and ham dinner, with some mashed spuds with fine onion mixed in, some roast potataos, all covered in gravy, with some steamed carrots and mushy peas, washed down with some My-Wadi. Then finished off with some of my Mums homemade apple tart made from apples freshly picked from my neighbours orchard, under the cover of darkness the night before. Ahhhhhh I miss me Mum

Shrimp and Calamari cooked in a super spicy red sauce served on al dente linguini. (PigDogg might remember "Little Charlies" in NYC. Long gone, alas...)

Dosa

I'm currently crazy about eating Masala Dosai and found some great spots for them in Bangkok and Pattaya;

Dosa King - Bangkok

Madras Darbar - Pattaya

I'd often have them for my first meal of the day around 2pm, as they are tasty but not too heavy or filling.

Cheers

God, what will ladyboys look like in the future?

Bigger? Stronger? Faster than ladyboys before . . . ?

My death row dish would be French. Manchons de canard (duck wings) with a simple green salad with a mustard vinaigrette  



Favourite Philippino dish ?
