Thai food rules.

 

[gsweet]

Depends on the time of the year/day:
-During the summer, I love Mexican or Jamaican in the afternoons, Thai in the evening because both go beautifully with a nice cold beer and/or margarita
-During the winter, I'm all about rich and hearty: Irish stews, Northern Italian, Indian work wonders with the associated Guinness, Tuscan red wine, northwestern US red.

Dang, now I'm all hungry and can't focus on anything...Thanks a lot!

 

[chatmaggot]

I could eat Mexican food for any meal, any day, any season and never tire of it.

Delicious.

 

[MrRadish]

Hmm, depends on mood, obviously, but I think Indian/Punjabi/Bengali comes top for me, closely followed by Chinese. Although real French food - the sort they actually eat over there on a regular basis as opposed to what we would normally think of as French food - is lovely.

Yemen.

 

[The Berean]

Since I am of Mexican heritage I must say Mexican food! :chew: However, Greek, Persian and Italian food are some of my favorites as well.

 

[Ecumenicist]

French, hands down. Best food in the world.

[Real Sorceror]

My step-mom is from Colombia. I can't really name any of the dishes, but some of that stuff is like crack. Especially the bread. And plantains.

 

[Nick M]

Yemen.

As long as the gyro is served with mystery meat and not lamb.

My choice...steak.

 

[Nick M]

My step-mom is from Colombia .... some of that stuff is like crack.

:noway:

I love plantains! Twice fried is my favorite. We used to serve a Mexican wrap in my coffee shop that the customers called "smack in a wrap" :chuckle: We made it from roast beef spiced the way I like it - the big 4 (onion, garlic, salt & pepper) with cumin, paprika, fresh cilantro, and just a few jalapenos (I like lots of them, but not everyone does...) - with cheese all wrapped up in a big tortilla. Yum.

My favorite cultural cuisine? I couldn't pick. I can find some food in any culture that I love to eat. I probably make Mexican (probably more Tex-Mex) the most though. I love cilantro and limes :chew:

 

[Real Sorceror]

:noway:

Oh god, I didn't even catch that. :doh:

 

[Dr.Watson]

Do I have to pick a country? Can I pick a continent? If I have to pick a country/countries, then I pick India, Thailand and the Ukraine as my top 3. If I can pick a continent then I'll go with Asia.
