What is your favorite type of ethnic food?

I recently read an article that said that Italian food was the favorite. Especially in Europe. For me and I think most of the U.S. it is Mexican. I go past a restaurant frequently that claims to be West African Cuisine. WTF is that?

I've had Senegalese, which is about as west as you can get in AFrica. It is fucking awesome. Do try it, man! I have no idea if your West African restaurant is Senegalese specifically, but usually countries in the same region have vaguely similar styles. If I had to try to compare it with something, I'd say the presentation and textures were closest to Indian food, but the spices and ingredients and flavors are different, so you might like it even if you don't like Indian.

Unlike when I SC, when it comes to food I'm a variety guy instead of an ATFer. I suppose I'd pick Italian if you held a gun to my head. But beyond that, I just fucking love Indian, ethiopean, Mexican, Cuban, Nicaraguan, Peruvian!, Salvadorean, various mediterranean/middleeastern/persian/afghani styles. I like (but don't love) many traditional ASian cuisines, but tend to LOVE the Asian fusion styles chefs are coming up with here in CA (and I imagine elsewhere).

Ooh goodness that’s tough for me, I love all kinds of food. Hmm, I do have a preference for spiciness and heavily marinated meats though. So...maybe Thai or Indian food?

The main thing I don’t like is catfish, bitter melon, and meats that are too sweet (I can cut slack on something line homemade cranberry sauce with turkey but for example I despise Panda Express)

But otherwise I’m not too picky and I want to eat it all.

Though even on my dislikes, I can make exceptions in the right circumstances.

Like for example, when Pip’s (a donut place in Portland) managed to make a really good bacon jam to fill in their doughnut. The smokiness of it actually went with the sweetness of the doughnut very well and I was shocked that I loved eating it so much.

I like all types of food. Put a gun to my head and make me choose and it would be Korean. Gal-bi short ribs + kimchee FTW!!! Plus they do sushi as well as the Japanese.

I should mention country French (Marseillaise) is pretty good too, not a fan of Regular French creamy types of food though.

Italian followed by French followed by good Chinese, which is impossible to find where I now live, followed by Mexican.

Can't stand most Thai, Vietnamese or Indian food because I do not like curry, lemongrass, coriander (cilantro) and some of the other herbs and spices they use. Of course they also use cilantro in a number of Mexican dishes, but it's not too hard to work around in most cases.

I would eat it more often but it’s so bad for you.

Shadow... at the corner of Briarcliff and clairmont I think, is Desta Ethiopean Kitchen. I thought they were famous for not having food. It is very good food though.

I really like Mamak on buford highway for singapore street food or just up the hill from follies on the same side of the street is a Vietnamese place that has the best sweet and sour shrimp soup. it has tomatoes, okra, pineapple, shrimp, etc.... very different but awesome

Does Redneck Ozark Hillbilly food count as ethnic? If so, then BBQ PORK STEAKS ! If not, then I will go with my favorite to eat at .... ETHIOPIA FOOD just inside DETROIT. Interesting to say the least. I also love Greek meats, Chinese food and Mexican Chimichangas. Basically, if there is meat in it, I’m all over it!

@Nidan111 if you like meat then you gotta try Korean BBQ short ribs (gal-bi or kal-bi). You're welcome.

It is much easier for me to state what I don't go for: Indian, hands down. Not that I hate it, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it.

My philosophy when I'm in different countries is to eat what the locals eat. I have gotten a lot of wonderful and often inexpensive meals that way.

Italian food easily. I probably would not be alive today if it weren't for Italian food. Literally 10 out of 14 of my weekly meals are Italian.

My favorite durian-fruitcup recipe:

Open durian with knife while holding nose.

Dispose of durian and knife in a biohazzard bag.

Bury the bag in your enemy's yard.

Open fruitcup, eat the contents.

Shoot, even Andrew Zimmern can't stand those things, lol.

Rick steeves in the book Asia through the back door said Durian was a cross between an onion, garlic, and a mango that you eat while standing over a london sewer. I would say that is fairly accurate. I know in Bangkok the Oriental hotel would not let me bring one inside.

@Nidan111 that's good to hear because it really is good stuff. I love all kinds of BBQ from all over the US and the world and to me the Korean gal-bi short ribs are the best.

Please note that you need to get the short ribs on the bone - gal-bi or kal-bi. There is another beef dish, bulgogi, that is chopped boneless beef and similar to gal-bi but it isn't as meaty flavorful and has more onion and garnish mixed in. Gal-bi is marinated similarly but it is truly meat on the bone. LOL try both but don't get them confused.
