I bet you hear this a lot, But I love everything. I'm always open to trying something new.. I love middle Eastern food, Indian, Asian, Italian, Swedish, Hungarian, Irish, Turkish, Russian.
I would like to share a recipe with you.
ITALIAN CHICKEN SALAD IN LETTUCE CUPS. It's easy to make and the next time you entertain guests or family, try this. It's easy on the budget, and very time saving.
10 cups coarsely shredded cooked chicken (from about 3 purchased roasted whole chickens)
2 cups roasted red and yellow bell peppers, drained, patted dry, and coarsely chopped
1 1/4 cups paper-thin slices red onion
3/4 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley leaves
3/4 cup slivered almonds, toasted
1/2 cup drained capers
1 1/2 cups (about) Red Wine Vinaigrette, recipe follows
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
24 butter lettuce leaves (from about 3 large heads)
1 (4-ounce) piece Parmesan, shaved with vegetable peeler
Toss the chicken, bell peppers, onion, parsley, almonds, and capers in a large bowl with enough vinaigrette to moisten. Season the chicken salad with salt and pepper, to taste.
Arrange 1 large lettuce cup and 1 small lettuce cup on each plate, overlapping slightly. Spoon the chicken salad into the lettuce cups. Drizzle more vinaigrette over the salads. Sprinkle with the Parmesan and serve.
Do-Ahead Tip: The chicken salad can be prepared 4 hours ahead and refrigerated. Just before serving, spoon the salad into the lettuce cups.
Vinaigrette: (any kind)
1/2 vinegar
1/4 cup lemon juice
2 teaspoons honey
2 teaspoons salt
Freshly ground black pepper
1 cup olive oil
Combine the vinegar, lemon juice, honey, salt, and pepper in a blender. With the machine running, gradually add the oil and blend until emulsified.

Most countries' cuisine is worth eating, so long as it is done with care and attention, but I did fall in love with a certain Dalmatien restaurant in Northern Germany. I still drool over the memory of their menu. In the meantime I make do with a very good local Thai restaurant, trying a different dish each visit and not yet being disappointed with any choice.

No. 1 is definitely Icelandic, if only for sheer creativity. You haven't lived until you've eaten sheep's cheek or haddock thats been hung in the open air for a year or two. No. 2 would have to be Northwest Indian. Ceder smoked salmon is one of the greatest things ever invented. German is third, with everyone else clumped in behind that.

incredibly hard to pick just one, but i'd probably go with Moroccan. i'm a fan of all Mediterranean cuisine in general, and although Moroccan is North African, i personally prefer it to Italian, Greek, etc since it shares many of their great qualities but tends to include more flavorful spices and leans more towards lamb, olives, dates, couscous, lemons, almonds, pastry, etc rather than an overabundance of pasta, tomatoes, veal, rice, cream, etc. i find it's got a lot of depth of flavor without being too rich, and is exotic and unique without being too out-there. wonderful variety and relatively easy to prepare, and always a crowd pleaser.

My favorite is my native cuisine. Venezuelan food. Eventhough we're a spanish country it is totally different. Our native plate is called "pavellon" which is white rice, seasoned black beans, shreadded skirt beef, yellow plantains and something called arepas. Thanks my favorite.
