To ask for foods which are genuinely delicious?

Smoked mackerel

Grilled figs on goats cheese with a little honey drizzle

If you like blue cheese, try it on plain chocolate digestive biscuits, a taste sensation! Gorgonzola is especially good this way!

Fun Food Fact: Beef carpaccio was invented in the 1950s by Venetian restaurateur Guiseppe Cipriani. He created carpaccio at his Harry's Bar restaurant for the Countess Amalia Nani Mocengio, whose doctor had advised her to avoid cooked meat.

Ready salted hula hoops with chocolate buttons squashed in them.

Also (and I know this is terrible) but suckling pig. Dear lord it was the best meat I have ever tasted. I couldn't eat it again as I feel too guilty but it is amazing.

Ooh foie gras with fig jam on toasted brioche...the perfect combination. I've not had it for years.

A gooseberry souffle I had in a fancy restaurant last year. I do not have a sweet tooth but this was so delicious!

Haggis is great. Dp makes pork mince, black pudding and haggis burgers and they are the best burgers. Also i do haggis mac and cheese , some in the sauce, and a haggis crumb on top. Yum. I might do that next week.

This reminds me of when we went raspberry picking at a little farm in Dorset 2 years ago. I haven't had a raspberry picked straight off the plant since I was a child. I forgot how delicious they are and couldn't stop eating them (after I paid for them I mean!). I've started growing them in my garden for this reason!

Blue cheese melted on sweet potato fries.
M&S beef wellington crisps with soured cream and chive dip.
Last night we had scandi meatballs on tortilla chips from Olive magazine, what a bit of comfort food that was! I used M&S tortilla chips (not UPF) and swapped the double cream for low fat cream cheese so it was a bit healthier.

Dates stuffed with a mixture of cream cheese and honey. I had this recently. It blew my mind

Interesting how many suggestions involve (1) cheese and honey and / or (2) sweet and savoury

Grilled halloumi drizzled with truffle honey. Literally the most incredible thing I've ever put in my mouth.

Uni (sea urchin) sushi. Absolutely incredible. Followed by ikura (fish eggs) sushi.

Foie gras, slightly crisped on the outside, on top of a well aged rare steak. Please don't judge, it was a different time!
And baklava. Especially the little roll shaped ones with very smooth (maybe cashew?) ground nuts inside ...
Gulab Jamun, still slightly warm.

Fruit cake with cheese. Gorgeous.

Oyster and vinegar Kent crisps - had them on a ferry once and never found them again. Also Yorkshire puddings with golden syrup 😋

I’m ill in bed today and this thread has cheered me right up, I’m going to go again. A brown derby down the seafront as a kid, maybe 7 or 8. Clacton. I was just like WTF is this taste sensation? How can anything be this hot and cold and sweet and delicious? They hardly do them anywhere any more and I’ve even told the kids about the legend 😂 I’m always on the lookout. FYI a brown derby is a big fat hot donut, whippy ice cream, a flake, nuts and chocolate sauce. Probably not really a big deal in the current world of monster shakes and everything being available everywhere any time, but that was such a joyful treat.

I think it's called feta me meli, feta baked in filo pastry drizzled in honey 🤤

Finocchiona, grana padano, drizzle of honey. In Italy, on a terrace in Tuscany. The fennel in the finocchiona is just beautiful, and yes as pp said definitely a salty/sweet theme coming along here - maybe it’s the ultimate combo?

Jersey royals, salted butter and cornish sea salt

Almost anything with smoked paprika

Octopus that I had in a restaurant by the harbour in lanzarote

Pecorino and truffle oil on macadamia nuts

Lobster smothered in garlicky butter in the US. We had bibs on and still got in a state! I’d never had lobster before and loved the texture, sweetness, and I’m a sucker for garlic so just always sticks in my mind it’s such a good food memory. This is one of the reasons I love travel so much.

There's a strong cheese and honey theme here - for me warm feta in filo pastry drizzled with honey

Brie and cranberry sauce, stilton and pear, feta and watermelon (salty and sweet)
Also didn't expect to like it but...basil ice cream!

There's a salad they do in France, grilled goat cheese on toasted French bread with a tiny drop of honey on each piece (the cheese is in little rounds so it fits the bread) and the whole thing is on top of salad leaves dressed in olive oil. Also another French dish, carpaccio de boeuf which is very thinly sliced beef fillet, dressed with olive oil and lemon juice and topped with parmesan shavings. The beef is raw, except that the outside edges of it have been seared. Try it. Sounds scary, tastes like heaven. Another beef recipe, this one Italian, tagliata di manzo, which is thin strips of seared steak (I use rump steak, or you can use fillet) on a bed of rocket dressed with olive oil, with parmesan shavings and cherry tomatoes. Something completely different I ate recently, brill: it's a fish and it doesn't really taste fishy, it's more meaty. Lovely flavour but you need to go to a fishmonger for it. Beef stroganoff, google a recipe, beef and mushrooms in sour cream, it's totally mwah!

Proper Thai larb about 20 years ago. Meat, red onion, chili, mint, even the ground up rice just makes it the most perfect texture and flavour combo. Served with very crunchy gem lettuce and cucumber. It’s also really good made with mushrooms 🍄
