I've been wanting a poll like this for a while, but couldn't think of a way to break up the choices, thanks.




For me, it is a tie between Asian (mainly curries and stir fries) and Greek.

I'd say Indian closely followed by Hungarian (which is quite distinct from all other central european cuisines, btw, chiefly due to the use of Paprika (ie. Chili)).

When people denigrate British food what are they refering to specifically?

Whats so bad about Roast Beef and Yorkshire pudding, Steak and Kidney pie, Dover Sole, Shephards/Cottage pie, Lancashire Hotpot, Beef Wellington, Cod and Parsley, Cornish pastries, Norfolk Turkey, Welsh Rarebit?

They are all delicious foods!!!

Curry

That's some nasty tasting crap!

Hmmmm. Mexican

Hmmmm. Greek

Hmmmm. Italian

Damn, we're only limited to one?

Gotta go with the home team - being American, I like American beef and chicken dishes.

Well, except for , which isn't exactly real meat.

I agree with the statements on British food, and its antipodean derivatives. It is too often denigrated, without good cause.
So, one will go for other.

German cuisine is the most underappreciated in the world, and is my favorite European one.

Chinese cuisine has more than Szechuan and Cantonese to offer. They are just 2 provinces within China.

Pad Thai, Crepe, Gyros, Kebab, Wiener Wurst are all simple, but very tasty food.

Indonesian!! That there's some good grub.

Thai comes in at a close second.

Then Vietnamese.

(Not Burmese, though, which IMO is a bad combination of Thai and Indian cuisine. And I've never tried Laotian food.)

Then Japanese.

Then Chinese.

Then Persian.

Then Italian.

Then Greek.

Then American Southern.

Then Mexican.

Then Bengali.

Then French.
