What's Your Favourite Food?

[irinmisfit92]

Woot woot because it's Thanksgiving period and I know everyone especially in the US (except for us Asians) are excited about eating turkeys and a lot of other foodstuff ready on the dinner table, I was going to ask what everyone's favourite food is.

Mine is nasi padang, a delicacy from Indonesia. Check it out on google if you don't know how it looks like. It's amazing.

I love some Indian and Chinese food as well, but Chinese food is generally bland and boring, so they can't be considered my favourites.

Any opinions? :D I'd love to hear all sorts of different food.

oh, oh, all things dessert! I have such a sweet tooth... You can make me happy with a nicely made cake (not too creamy), a nice and proper ice cream. Preferably with alcohol and proper dark chocolate. mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm :biggrin5:

But now you mention it, in one Asian restaurant I had this divine and simple raspberry and apple soup for desert. It was so simple, but it was great. Rasberry 'stock' and tiny pieces (and I mean tiny) of apple floating around, with mint and I thing lemon sorbet. It was so sad that I couldn't eat anymore after the main course...

I like everything, though, as long as it's food. Except cold cheese, cold butter and milk.

:incazzato:

Difficult to bring it down to a single foodstuff. If we were talking nationalities of food, I'd probably go for Thai or French.

Then again, life has little to offer that beats a glass of white wine and pizza straight from the moped.

I love pizza and spaghetti. I could never get tired of them.

My current favorite food is a black bean burger made by a really talented chef. It doesn't contain any meat, but it is by far the best veggie burger I've ever had. It great with avocado. I love California avocados. They're so different from tropical avocados (those taste more like mangos to me). Outstanding any time food.

I love California quisine, French, New York Italian, Mexican food (but only the Mexican food near the far Western border). Mediterranean food can be quite delicious too.

Haha I'm pretty sure Germany has a lot of nice desserts, ay? There's alcohol ice cream here and it's pretty good :D I don't have a sweet tooth but I like Haagen-Dazs and some sweet stuff I suppose.

Trust me I'm pretty sure that Asian restaurant is crap as compared to the real thing over here. Indo food is generally hard to make because it requires so many spices not found in Europe, so that's why it's a lot easier to make Chinese food which's generally blander.

Oooh I see. I'm kinda sure that's not the traditional dessert, because a lot of traditional cakes here are awesome and no one knows about it.

I hate too creamy stuff; it's gonna be crazy for me. My stomach won't be able to handle it much. That's why I prefer pasta with tomato sauce rather than creamy sauce :D

Ahhh :D Thai food is generally easier to find in Europe and Australia because it's much easier to make. Indonesian food requires a lot of spices so it's hard to find. If you ever try it I'm sure you'll like it, because you like Thai food. It's not similar, but I like the spiciness of Indo food.

Oooo nice. I've tried French food once and I didn't like it at all. Maybe it was the restaurant or I was too young to appreciate it, but my sister and I only enjoyed dessert. I think breakfast meals such as croissant is also good, but I'm not sure about the main course. I saw this French movie and only saw a lot of seafood and nothing else.

I just like meat and veggies and potatoes. They taste good and feel good because some of them can be really healthy. I hate it whenever I have to eat something really fried because I'll feel guilty afterwards.

Italian food is nice :D I like em too. I miss them T.T but I'm not eating them soon... I should, but I've been spending too much on food and books so I really should start saving up.

Sounds like it's the chef's specialty that can't be found anywhere else. :D

That's cool. I've never tried Mexican food but I'm sure it's not too far different from Latin American food. I tried Brazilian food and it was great, but it was way too expensive.

Actually, my favourite restaurant in Soho in the eighties was a Singaporean place that did Nasi Padang, Beef Goreng and all sorts of dishes from that part of the world -and if I could still find that stuff, I think it'd probably score higher than Thai, which can be a tad, umm, polite.

I quite like French food too, there's a restaurant I go to that makes a chocolate sarrasin crepe stuffed with a sweet ricotta cheese and covered in orange sauce, it's amazing. I have a sweet tooth too.

When I'm downtown I usually spring for Thai or Lebanese for lunch.

I'm a big fan of gravy, I just eat it with bread. As for food nationalities, I'd have to go with Itallian or Greek.

The crepe sounds delicious, Pip. I love crepes. I knew a French baker in Miami, she made a flourless chocolate cake. It's indescribable.

Ooooo that's interesting :D I've tried some Nasi Padang places here and some of them are quite good; however most are not as good as they are back home (obviously).

Asian food's awesome ay :D Do you like Middle Eastern food? My cousin tried it in London and she loved it.
