Good quality British food is always going to be my number one.
Followed by Italian and Thai

British-Indian.

Specifically a phall. Not "real" Indian food; the greasy, spicy stuff that take-always have invented for the unrefined British pisshead palate.

I’ve never tried most of these!

I like my high dairy British fare.

Lebanese is proving popular. I’ve tried a lot of cuisines but never Lebanese. I’ll have to give it a go as it sounds delicious

Korean bibimbap, radish salad & BBQ
Japanese salmon sashimi
Indian vegetarian thali and masala tea
Hong Kong spice numbing prawns
Netherlands salty liquorice

Then eggs from everywhere 😋

Could pretty much live off the above...

Cady it’s delicious! Chips, what kind of putting? I was in Uganda, but don’t remember having any pudding.

I make curry and rice/chapatti dinner mostly throughout the week (South Asian), and other foods once or twice a week (DC prefer milder tasting British food).

Interesting to see Korean food on here. My Korean ex-neighbour loved curries and would say Korean food is too bland. I tasted her cooking a few times and have to say, it was nice. Different.

Chips, can I find it anywhere in London? That sounds really good.

Can I specify Indian Chinese food? So tasty and more reliably veggie than British Chinese food typically is in my experience. If not then it would be either Indian or Lebanese veggie food. I do love chickpeas and other pulses and those cuisines both have amazing dishes with them.

@CadyHeron bibimbap represents the solar system, colour therapy in food ~ yum 😋 (the burned bits of rice at the bottom on the pot are the best.)

@Snotles Korean food isn’t bland if you add red chili paste (gochujang) to taste.

Gorgean cheese bread Khachapuri served hot with chilled Gorgean red wine is pretty spectacular too! (like a double-crust pizza but so so very much better.)

The problem is we don't eat the actual cuisine.

I was meh about 'Chinese food' until I went to China. And had rolled rice bamboo things that were incredibly good, yak and chillis roasted in a fire (shitting awesome). Honestly, it was amazing food. From Beijing to Shangri La. I'll never see that in the UK.

Italian pizza straight out of the oven.

Thai curries that make you cry.

French everything.

Lemongrass chilli chicken in Viet Nam.

There is no 'good cuisine'. Only the amazing food that everyone in the world cooks.
