This changes for me, somewhat, upon my travels though I'm really not opposed to much (just look at me LOL!!_). My hometown Chicago faves of deep dish pizza (sorry Scottie), Italian beef, gyros, steaks, etc. will never ever leave. But here's some new additions to the fave lists:
Hawaii-Kalua pig was my favorite Hawaiian dish at Yama's. Had some ramen at Goma Tei at Ward's center and then Pho at some Vietnamese place in Chinatown and both were absolutely to die for. I'm looking for both back here in PHX..............................................still looking..............................
Italy-We went to Bologna (best food town), Florence, Venice, Rome, Parma/Modena (unfortunately closed on Sunday) and I can't even say how good the food was. We even took a bus to the far side of Bologna to a super-walmart-esque type of store to have fresh sausages, pasta, cheeses, and bread virtually made right there for us and we cooked back in the condo we rented with some Peroni
Absolutely frickin' amazing-can't wait to return as soon as the dollar recovers...........................
London-A very cool connection to have on a trip to Italy, the food was good though rumors to the contrary abound. It is a very international city, many would say there's really not a lot of Britain left in London. Based on the burkhas and turbans I encountered all along Edgware Rd. I can't say I disagree-I only stayed a few days though. Steak and Ale pie, bangers and mash
Brilliant!! And don't miss the Borough Market and their grilled cheese sandwich vendor who takes 'off the hook' to a whole other level!!
