Favorite Cuisines?

[ArtemV]

This evening I went to an Uzbek restaurant called bahroma (St. Petersburg) and I remembered how much I love Turkish/Uzbek food - I ate an assortment of shashlyk (shish-kebab (with chicken, turkey, lamb and veal)), my girlfriend ate plov - rice, nuts, beef and other things.

Turkish food is so good, especially when used with good meat. I have tried many Arabic foods too, when I visited my father in Middle East when he worked there.

Sherbros, what are your favorite cuisines/types of restaurant to go to?

I like Chinese and Italian, but I try out everyone cuisines all the time.

What I hate though is the hybrids. I find them inferior to the parent cuisines on their own.

I find the middle eastern, and central asian cuisines are all pretty similar to each other. Everyone does the kofte kebab because i guess that the easiest way to cook if you are nomadic. It always beef, and lamb, or chicken. No one eats pork.

Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, Italian

Well yes Uzbek, Kazakh, Azeri, Turkish, Turkmen and Kyrgyz are pretty much the same. Mix Arabic in there too. But I still think it is so delicious.

You're right about pork though, but we don't struggle to get it. Mostly each market has pigs heads.. ham.. very good sausages.. bacon etc.

Italian, Creole, mexican. I love all food besides a lot of Indian.

I guess it is a moslem thing not to eat pork. I think boars are prevalent in Asia. The Hindus dont eat pork either. The Chinese, and other asians certainly will though. I wonder if the siberia tribes like the nenets, Evenks, Yakuts will eat pork.

It is quite similar, but I find they like to use this peanut sauce more. But I guess I have never had real viet food. I only try at viet restaurants in the US, and many of them are actually run by chinese.

Try pho or papaya salad. It’s a mix

 

[JbModest]

Thai and Japanese. Also Chinese, but it's impossible to get good Chinese food except in big cities.

it is influenced for sure by chinese cuisine but it also has lots of influence from french cuisine. the two most popular dishes are rice noodles (Pho) and sandwiches on baguette (Banh mi). Personally i am a huge fan of Pho i really love rice noodle dishes, and i I've in an area of the world that specializes in rice noodle dishes. That being said pho has a special place in my heart i really think the addition of lime and jalapeenos really make the dish stand out. also Banh mi when done correctly is amazing...

my favorite cuisines are Mexican (with new mexican chiles), Chinese ( specifically north eastern, Sichuan, and Jiangxi style). i also have a soft spot for xinjiang style cooking i mean who docent love bbq lamb and lamb based stews.
