I'm *very* fond of both "Euro-Indian" and Vietnamese.  Etheopian runs a very
close second...


#2 of 39 by tnt on Mon Dec 14 21:51:32 1992:

Soul-food.

Variety is the spice of life.


#4 of 39 by mcnally on Thu Dec 17 19:43:52 1992:

  I thought cinnamon was the  spice of life..    Or maybe 
cayenne pepper..

If I could only eat one kind of food for the rest of my life I'd
choose Italian.


#6 of 39 by popcorn on Fri Dec 18 00:58:24 1992:

Wrong!  Basil is the spice of life.  Mmmmm!


#7 of 39 by arabella on Fri Dec 18 10:50:00 1992:

In the situation Dan proposes, I would choose Mexican.


#8 of 39 by popcorn on Sun Dec 20 15:07:33 1992:

I'd be hard-pressed to choose between Indian, Ethiopian, and Chinese.
Yummy!

Gee.  If I were stuck on a desert island, I'd want to be stuck on one
with 50 different restaurants!

   Don't you mean if you were stuck on a dessert island?

My favorite food in the world would be any food I ate in an Italian restaurant
IN ITALY.

Japanese food, Ah So!

Does anybody out there know anything about Welsh cooking?  I've heard about
a great dish which essentially consists of throwing bacon and mussels into 
a batter and baking it.  Any idea where I could find this recipe?


#14 of 39 by tnt on Mon Oct 18 01:46:25 1993:

 I knaw a rare bit about Welsh cooking, but that's it.


#15 of 39 by tatiana on Mon Oct 18 02:16:14 1993:

Main branch of Ann Arbor library has several volumes on Welsh cooking.
They're usually there (near bottom shelf, so I guess no one sees them)
and at least two are really well set up.

#17 of 39 by tnt on Wed Oct 27 03:02:51 1993:

#21 of 39 by dea on Sun Mar 6 02:50:15 1994:

you're all wrong.  mexican is the best.


#22 of 39 by popcorn on Mon Mar 7 07:31:36 1994:

Hi Damon!!!!!


#23 of 39 by vidar on Tue Mar 8 23:59:28 1994:

This is opinon.  Opinions aren't always wrong or right.  In this case, they're
neither.


#24 of 39 by otterwmn on Sun Apr 2 21:46:39 1995:

I want to live between two restaurants; one Chinese, one Italian.


#25 of 39 by raytlee on Tue Apr 4 07:57:19 1995:

My brother used to live next to a Chinese resturant in London.  Won't
recomment it.  But then your friends would find you by their noses blocks 
away if they are hungry.


#26 of 39 by mcpoz on Wed Apr 5 00:28:50 1995:

Poached Norwegian Salmon is pretty good.


#27 of 39 by katie on Wed Apr 5 15:40:34 1995:

Yeah, but you can get in trouble for that.


#28 of 39 by mcpoz on Thu Apr 6 01:07:44 1995:

Clever!


#29 of 39 by suzi on Thu Apr 13 20:09:58 1995:

Lebanese food is the best! (Especially vegetarian stuffed grape leaves).


#30 of 39 by ddn on Sun Apr 16 02:12:09 1995:

chocolate


#31 of 39 by koi on Wed Apr 19 01:09:22 1995:

non greasy, light chinese food is difficult to beat.


#32 of 39 by jaklumen on Tue Aug 2 10:47:14 2005:

replying to a ten-year old item...

I'm game for anything spicy pretty much, and I also tend to favor
Eastern cooking.  For what I get around here, I think I've liked Thai:
combines the spice of India with the stirfry of China.


#33 of 39 by jadecat on Tue Aug 2 12:46:41 2005:

Heh, I've introduced my beau and myself to other people as "Mr. & Mrs.
Bland." Spicy food doesn't really agree with either one of us. 

That said, I am a fan of good Chinese food, but that can be hard to find.


#34 of 39 by jaklumen on Wed Aug 3 10:54:44 2005:

I would like to find Chinese food that hasn't been Americanized so much.
 Y'know, without the MSG, oil, deep fried, etc.

I am thinking of Mongolian now...


#35 of 39 by denise on Fri Oct 20 20:44:57 2006:

Comfort food for me! :-)


#36 of 39 by mynxcat on Fri Oct 20 21:25:15 2006:

Hmmmm - depends on my mood. I'm thinking fried chicken now. But I do love
sushi, ethiopian, Indian, shephard's pie, poutine, liver and onions - depends.

That was cool Jeff. I noticed a lot of people had Bananas. 


#39 of 39 by cmcgee on Mon Jan 21 16:07:35 2008:

Stunning series.  Many of the shots were taken in the kitchen, so I was
able to look at cooking equipment details as well.
