View Full Version : Your favorite Ethnic/Regional foods?
Janice 07-22-2006, 12:18 PM I love Chinese food, not crazy over Thai. We also used to go to a great Spanish restaurant that had the tastiest dishes. I've never been a fan of Mexican food. I like certain Greek dishes such as Moussaka, Gyros, Greek salad, and for dessert, I love Baklava.
Brian Damage 07-22-2006, 12:21 PM I looooove Gyros. That is my favorite ethnic food.
Jonathan 07-22-2006, 12:23 PM Chinese. I love it. I could eat it all day.

Oh, yeah....I also wanted to add "Columbian food." I know a lady from Columbia, and she showed us a Columbian restaurant in my city. Pretty tasty food!

No, the spelling with the "o" is if you are speaking in Spanish. In English it is with a "u."
James"Thunder"Early 07-27-2006, 01:18 AM I like Italian
Jo_Luvs_Ketchup 07-27-2006, 01:39 AM Is ketchup an ethnic food?:confused: http://i9.photobucket.com/albums/a82/BidiBidiBomBom2006/Other/ketchupsmilie.gif
Czas na Zywiec 07-27-2006, 01:55 AM Yep!
The general consensus is that ketchup indeed originated in Malaysia, and that this sauce contained brine of pickled fish and spices, as opposed to tomatoes. It is also believed that ketchup in this form existed before the Chinese and Malaysians were introduced to the tomato, some time immediately after 1521.
It is further believed that English and Dutch sailors brought with them the Asian ketchup to Europe, where, to this basic, fish sauce was added many flavourings, such as mushrooms, anchovies and nuts.
Whether also the tomato was added to ketchup in England is not certain, and it's most likely that this important event first happened in the USA. By 1801 a recipe for tomato ketchup was indeed printed in an American cook book.

Brad Russ 07-27-2006, 06:31 PM Thai food is the BEST.
I had Thai food for the first time a few months ago, and thought it was nasty!!! It was probably just what I ordered, but none of the stuff on the menu sounded very appetizing to me. Are there any dishes you would recommend?? I'd like to give it another try, but I just don't want to try anything like that nasty pineapple, duck, cocunut soup I tried choking down last time. puke:

No, but it's been a vegetable since 1981. :lol:
Japanese and Indian. I would like to try Greek or Middle Eastern cuisine.
