Favourite "holiday" food or drink

[PaulineCampbellJones]

Things that are special because you eat/drink them on holiday/away from home. Mine are:
Peach juice
Pistachio ice cream
Tayto crisps
Nutty Krust bread
Kimberley biscuits
Pretzel Flipz

Well, I salivate thinking about french baguettes filled with ham, goats cheese and juicy, fresh, tomoatoes.

God, I want one now!!

A steak with garlic mash potatoes from The Keg Steakhouse, Canada.
also Spaghetti and Meatballs and Spumoni ice cream from the old Spaghetti Factory restaurant, also in Canada.
And Tim Hortons for breakfast, why don't we have breakfast places like that here in the UK I ask you. Their breakfast bagels are fab as are their donuts and cinnamon buns.

funnel cakes are nice too,had them in Florida.

Better stop I'm making myself hungry now.

Mmmm TimBits.

San Miguel.
Albondigas.
Boquerones.
Patatas Bravas with the pink sauce. Yummy!

linguine alla vongole, and limoncello

Oooh boquerones, missed that one off!
And 43 liqueur.

Alioli, Kiri soft cheese, jamon and cucumber with the skin peeled off all with nice crusty bread in Spain. Maybe with a nice cold beer on the side. Also churros and hot chocolate.

Cheese pies and Mythos beer in a frosty glass.
And ouzo. It never tastes right at home.

big fat greek salad dripping with feta oil and oregano
souvlaki with yogurty herby dressing in a proper flatbread/pitta thing

Sorry, live in SW France and there's only so much confit de canard you can eat.

at I've not had a twirl since September.

I know what your DH means about Chinese/Indian. I lived in France for a year as a student and savd up to got to the town's finest Chinese restaurant. It was not Chinese as we in England know it!

Yes, frogs' legs with lemon grass aren't quite the same as anything with black bean sauce, in my book.

Scarily, when I lived overseas, I really missed Greggs sausage rolls and cheese n onion pasties! I used to ask friends and family to bring one out to me
