[الله أكبر]

Ooooh, what's your favorite Middle Eastern dish? I'm a fan of just about anything involving flatbread.

Are we allowed to include various genres of food? Like diner food, Thanksgiving food, finger food, Philadelphian?

1. Indian (India Garden has ruined me for other nationalities of food)
2. Italian
3. Chinese
4. Tex Mex, too I guess
5. Japanese

No, absolutely not. If you can't follow the rules of my thread, then  . Although I guess Thanksgiving is an ethnic food, if you consider the subjugation of my Indigenous American brothers and sisters cause for celebration.

I got spoiled last semester because in Germany, they have Arabs and Turks (not Middle Eastern, but meh, similar cuisine) instead of Mexicans, so instead of tacos and stuff, it's falafel, flatbread, Döner and tabbouleh heaven. One of my professors was Lebanese and she brought homemade tabbouleh to class on the last day. It was awesome. There's a kickass Arabic restaurant in Wynnewood near my house...perhaps we could all go sometime.

Bryce, ever been to a Korean barbecue?

Ohh yeah! There's a reason I listed korean :)

[الله أكبر]

I've only ever gone to one, but it was simultaneously fun and delicious. Nothing like buying a plate of raw meat and cooking it on a little grill set inside a table.

- Mexican
- French
- Japanese

-Indian

I could eat indian food every goddamned day and never get sick of it, even if it meant getting a Prilosec perscription. Steel mouth, iron stomach, rice paper esophagus.

-Korean

I love the shit out of Korean noodle houses

-Fake American Chinese

I don't care if it's not deep fried chicken feet served on a soybean salad, it's tasty and that's all that counts.

-Italian
-Real Mexican

Agreed. Dan is totally wrong...Indian food is the greatest food in the world and if all I could eat for the rest of my life was chicken saag and garlic naan I'd be the happiest person in the world.

Well jesus I didn't mean THAT...I meant more like really good tofu and steamed bok choy served in delicious garlic sauces kinda real chinese food.

[TheOfficer]

1. Japanese
2. Thai
3. Indian
4. Ethiopian
5. Afghan

[Larry Flyntz]

I feel so uncultured. I've never tried most of the things listed here. Anyway...

1. Italian
2. Mexican
3. Fake Chinese that Rifty was talking about
4. Southern American (this may not count as a separate ethnicity, per se, but Southern food is fantastic)

I guess that's it.

[Infinite Jerkgrinders]

-Real Mexican

Hell yes, there's this great restaraunt near my hometown, a little ways off the road thats run by some mexican family - all the food is absolutely stunning. Its like you can taste the generations that each dish was passed down through. Better still I have yet to have any gastrointestinal problems or spike-ups afterwards, like most mexican places. I try to go there every time I'm home; awesome shit

[الله أكبر]

Yeah, as pretentious as it might sound...Italian Italian is way better.

And yeah, I miss Döner kebaps a lot. Such a convenient, cheap, relatively nutritious, tasty food. Did you ever have yufka? It's the one in a wrap instead of in flatbread. Deee-lish.
