I'm just wondering what is the most amazing tasting food that you have ever eaten. That you just really like having. It can be a full meal like bbq ribs and roasted homefries, a donut, honey glazed chicken wings, Taco supreme fries, thanksgiving turkey dinner with stuffing, potatoes, and gravy, sweet and sour pork with chicken fried rice, brownies, Curried beef with basmati rice, a Panzerotto, pizza, a thick beef burger off the bbq, a double fudge cake, Home made apple pie, etc.

Name a handful if you please.

What are some examples of your favor Greek, Italian, Albanian, and Serbian/croatian food?
 
I've eaten a lot of food all over the world, and for me it isn't even close.

The best dish in the world is the stew served at the Phantom Ranch at the bottom of the Grand Canyon. After hiking for six or seven hours, you're tired, hungry, sweaty, and your entire body aches, and the stew tastes like the greatest thing in the world at that point.

Lol, its hard to explain in English, like I don't know how they call them in the english language. Sorry Lavalamp.
 
For appetizers, probably boereg. It's the Armenian in me. That stuff is awesome. I actually never really have any Armenian food even though my dad's side of the family is 100% Armenian.

Soup and salad: french onion soup and a caesar salad.

Main course would probably be parmesan crusted chicken with baked potato.

For desert, apple pie without a doubt. I had some family visiting from New Mexico a few weeks ago, and we got this apple pie (don't remember where we bought it) but it was the best apple pie I've ever had.

Great. Now I'm hungry. I actually have this meal quite a bit (sans the boereg, since it's a pain to make).

Balkan area? I was deployed to Kosovo for 7 monthes about 5 years ago. I can't remember what I had while I was there but I do remember that it wasn't bad at all

lol, well there are some americanized Italian dishes that are well known, Pizza, Panzos, Spaghetti, Lasagna, Ravioli, chicken parmisean, etc.

For Greek I know less, basically just them Souvlaki or Souvlaki in a wrap with some other stuff in em. Those Baklava pastries, HORIATIKI / GREEK SALAD, this site lists some greek dishes with pictures. http://www.ellada.com/grarr15.html

Serbian/croatian, I've probably had other countries equivalents - Sarma = cabbage rolls? I've heard of goulash before, I don't know if I've had it though. I've had Gnocchi before, I like those, I've had Kobasa. I think I have had Almond Biskotine before. I've definitely had Palacinke before. and looking at pictures I've had Raznjici before too.

My grandpa moved here when he was 9 (this was back in the early 1900's) and my grandma, although 100% Armenian, was born and raised in NYC.
 
hmm so much good food it's hard to say.

For a great dinner I'd have;
brocolli salad with pine nuts, bacon bits, carrots, green pepper and a sweet dressing
Fajita's with Beef, lettuce, guacomole, beans, rice, cheese and salsa.
BBQ steak thick and a little pink in the middle. Toss in some grilled zuccini nice and crisp and bbq'd carrots wrapped up in foil filled with butter.
Baklava -- middle eastern philo-pastry dessert drenched in honey and nuts
Milkshake - strawberry of course!

Yeah basically all those things and mostly they're similar, just might be made differently from country to country in the Balkans.

Nope. Not even a little. I don't even think my dad knows. He might know a few words, but definitely can't speak in a full sentence.

Yeah, usually the people that moved to the US in the early 1900s they had to learn english and never taught their children their own language. Its much differently now, as you need to speak different languages.

At least you know you're Armenian, and make sure you let your children know as well. (if you have them or will in the future)
 
It was at an insanely expensive restaurant in the Upper East Side (New York). There were a lot of yuppies there...

Their pasta that night was a squid ravioli in a lemon grass broth with goat cheese profiteroles and an arugula Caesar salad. For the entrees I also had a swordfish meatloaf with onion marmalade, a rare-roasted partridge breast in raspberry coulis with a sorrel timbale, and grilled free-range rabbit with herbed French fries. All with some Coca-Cola of course... Not too much since I want to avoid sugar to a degree. :[

Edit- Not too much cola because one "can always be thinner. Look... better".
 
Sushi's good by me.

I'll leave the Rockie Mountain Oysters in lemongrass broth for Huevonkiller to try.

Lol.

***Hint*** Also, I saw Christian Bale at this place too. : O

He was using an American accent and seemed "disturbed" about something apparently. I don't know what kind of act he was trying to pull.....
 
Tastiest?

About the sweetest thing I've ever eaten is coconut macaroons dipped in orange sauce.
 
Dumpy's adventure/dish sounds quite good. If I go to the Grand Canyon I'll try to remember that.

JCB`s combo is nice, I like chicken parm a lot and apple pie.

Celtic fan

I dunno why, but I like the sound of Celtic Fans brocolli salad. Beef Fajitas are great too.

lol, well I can't really relate to Huevon's dish, because I've never had swordfish, partridge, and I only had 1 bite of a roasted wild rabbit.

I guess my list probably would be:

Chicken Parmesean with fettucini alfredo and pieces of ham.
Very spicy curried pork with basmati rice, man it was so good. It was really spicy though.
A wrap lightly fried, with a variety of beans, some peppers and onions, chunks of chicken, cheddar cheese, basil.
Ice cream sandwiches
Dairy Queen blizzard (it's been a long time since i had one though)
Homemade baked apple pie.

do you live near a Costco?

chances are you can have it then. I add a few things but brocolli, pine nuts, bacon bits (raisins, forgot to mention the raisins) and onion are already in it
 
If anyone EVER has a chance to have Buffalo steaks, not ground buffalo burgers but real actual steaks.. DO IT!
I worked at the Banff Springs Hotel in Alberta in the rocky mountains.. a world destination resort and all the servers got a night in the kitchen to see who stuff is made and more importantly how it tastes.
Buffalo meat is leaner and tastier than Beef.... just awesome.
 
Seafood.

Especially shrimp, scallops, and crab.

Ooohh lobster too.

And Mahi Mahi.


And sushi.


Actually, just any seafood will do.

I had the same thing. Only $500 for lunch, not bad.

My favorite meal is the one I have every year for my birthday. I go to Bolo in NYC (Bobby Flay's) and order a Black Squid Ink Risotto. It's tops!
 
I'm a vegetarian, so at most restaurants my options are limited to the same old veggie burgers, stirfries, etc. However I'll never get sick of:

Chili Relleno from this small Mexican restaurant in T.O.
Pizza with mushrooms and roasted red peppers
Veggie burgers from Licks
Cheesecake from Juniors (some place in NY)
Sour cherry slurpees
