What's an example of French cuisine that people like? I always see it high on lists, but can't think of anything that other country's don't do better.

>>69145950

I worked with a amateur threater group for 2 months and went with some chinese traditional instruments band on tour, we ended in a bunch of chinese restaurants to eat and they made real chinese food and it was some of the best shit I ever tasted in my life.

>>69145950
Beef and carrot stew, anything quiche, lots of cheese, lots of ham, lots of ham and cheese sandwiches, casserole, french bread.
I also think it is overrated though.

>>69146168
>ham and cheese sandwiches
That's british food dumbass

>>69146207
FINE you nitpicking spic "Croque monsieur"

>>69145950
in the case of the French, it's not so much the food itself as the entire culinary culture. France is without doubt the country which has most shaped our culinary standards and traditions nowadays, they pretty much defined what it means in the West to "properly" eat.

The food itself isn't exceptional, but it's still very good, and it shows high standards. The best example would be to compare the traditional poor man's comfort food across different cultures. In France, this would be dishes such as onion soup or cassoulet. It's really just amazing that such dishes are actually traditionally peasants' food, compared to other such dishes in other countries they seem like haute cuisine.

What do Viets even make that's exclusive to them? Pho?

>>69146307
Dude, I'm guessing there's not a lot of decent bistros in Guatemala but at the very least you've had filete a la pimienta o a la mostaza haven't you? And you do know many of the basics in our food, everything from filet mignon to consomme is Frrench?

>>69146413
Just because I think it is overrated does not mean I don't think it isn't GOOD FUCKING FOOD. I eat far more Mexican and Italian, and I enjoy them more.

>>69146553
latkes, matzo, ge-filter fish, chicken grease, and hummus

>>69146505
>your own poutine would be a good example
poutine has nothing to do with France, in fact being Québécois I'd have to say that Québécois food seems to be more British than French. In the case of poutine (which by the way is a huge meme and it annoys me that our entire cuisine is just reduced to that, and furthermore that subhuman Anglo-Canadians have now appropriated it like countless other fucking things), the ingredients are pretty quintessentially British: fries, cheese and brown sauce, often with added things like minced meat. Our most popular dish is probably what we call "pâté chinois", which is very similar to the British cottage pie, another popular dish is pea soup, also eaten traditionally in the UK, and so on. Of course we also have some other dishes which have different origins/influences, such as ragoût de pattes, or bûche de Noël, but our most popular ones seem quite British for whatever reason.

>>69146591
Fair enough, I'm just saying it looked as if you were oversimplifying French cuisine, the fact most other Western European cuisines have largely copied French makes it appear underwhelming, but even then you're leavibng out they have a variety that can compete with anyone. They have as much sauces as Mexican cuisine has moles.

All these """people""" who talk shit about Indian food have obviously never had it. Even if it's not your favorite it SHOULD be on everyones top 3, plebs I tell ya.

>>69146879
You raise many valid points, and I may have lashed out. You are correct. French food is the bedrock on which much western food culture lies.
Still not everybody's favorite though!

>>69147087
its mostly a galician-portuguese thing i think (from before they were separated)
sardines are better imo

>>69147087

not much, the portuguese were the first to get it in southern europe IIRC, still you can find it in many Spanish Atlantic cuisine.

Is Chinese food really good ? Here we have restaurants with the same meme food and it's pretty disgusting. Same with Indian.

>>69147098

The point being there's a difference in between cuisine and the everyday stuff, pictured is everyday food tho and is a peanut based sauce, you've got a lot of stuff like Poblano cream sauces or flor de calabaza which is everyday food and can be both elegant and uniquely tasty

>>69147419
I'm talking stuff like Hachis Parmentier, Tartiflette or even Cordon Bleu, high carb meat/poultry/ham and cheese. I thought your urban "rednecks" were all into donner kebab anyway. I'm not knocking it btw, we are talking simple comfort food not haute cuisine, I'm a big fan of French food even in it's simpler forms.

>>69147145
You're correct in that my friend, to each their own

>>69147769

it happened to me when I first tried japanese cuisine, I ended asking for a bunch of plates to share and they were basically the same shit and my farts smelled of raw fish for days.

went a second time with some jap workers that where assembling a press in my work and it was great.

do the same, search for a good restaurant and talk with the owner or the public relations person, tell him what you want and let him offer plates that are probably not on the menu.

Stop this meme, arabs made it

>>69148219
Man, Arab salad is basically pico de gallo with cucumber (which is actually pretty common in northern Mexico) or other stuff like avocado (Mexican) or olives (common to all Mediterraneans) you've got a lot of nerve to talk about originality in that region of the world as other than a few stapples most dishes can be tracked to other cuisines. Nothing wrong with that, I actually love Lebanese, but come on, give the guy a break

>>69148035
Uh ok. I don't really like these dishes personally. Cordon bleu is very industrial-tier food too.

>>69148050
Okey, what I do is go to restaurants where Asians actually go.
For Japanese food I had 1 great experience in Paris because the chef was a real japanese; but if you don't live in a big city then you're forced to eat meme food.
Same with Chinese I had 1 nice experience, still not enough to describe it as GOAT. Chinese people are quite asocial though.

Some oceanic cuisine most likely, I love fresh seafood.

>>69148455

>Chinese people are quite asocial though.

they are, as I told you I was with other chinese people.

>>69148533
Uh I understood you did it with Japs only srry.

>>69148455
Most industral food can be done right at home. hamburguers are the best example, I get my meat from a butcher and even add something like a third ground pork (which American purists would probably condemn) and they come out godly with just emmental, a bit of decent mustard and grilled onions. I like the tomatoes and pickles on the side.

Now, if you're using pre-formed patties (no matter how "premium") you'll get shit.

>>69148619

I went with japs for the jap restaurant and with chinese for the chinese restaurant so they could explain things to me, also when you get a jap in a jap restaurant there is no way they would cheat on you with the dishes.

All Mediterranean (including Levantine and North African) > the rest

>>69148763
Ok, but for example we never make cordon bleu at home, we always buy it processed and ready-to-grill.

>>69149240
That sucks, we don't get Euro processed food here so everything you have to cook from scratch. Even the American processed food (with a few exceptions like hamburguers and pizzas) is usually a lot more expensive than just doing it the right way at home. I get the convenience factor but I do think some countries have gone overboard with eating out/buying pre-made stuff. It probably helps here that a lot of our stapples (say quesadillas) can be made in under 5 minutes.

>>69149240
Please be joking, that's like babby's first dish -tier hardness and effort.

>>69149713
>>69149712
Cordon bleu is very cheap food like pizza-tier so people won't bother to cook it.

>>69149185

there's no finer meal on this earth than roast beef, peas, carrots, mashed tatties, and a few yorkshires with gravy. Well rounded and tastes far better than the the posh shite from france or italy. other countries aren't worth mentioning

Dutch cuisine consists of five things I think.
1. Mashed veggies (anything goes) + Potatoes + meat / fish, which is what most Dutch peopel default to. And a few other random dishes (Withloof with ham and cheese, capercijneschotel and some oven dishes).
2. Baked food. Tigerbread. Oliebollen. Lots of cookies (speculaas, anise, almond, brown sugar, butter and syrup).
3. Milk based products. Vla and cheeses.
4. Fast food. The secret corner stone of Dutch cuisine. Everything you get at the snackbar. Kroketten, frikandellen and patatje oorlog. But don't tell anyone.
5. Oh, and fish. Kibbeling, herring, sandwiches with smoked eel etc.

>>69151076
>Brazilian
Pls explain, I've been there and all I found was steak or meme salgados food.

>>69151136
Honestly, the good things about the Dutch cuisine are the breads and cookies. And the fast food.

I believe it might depend on where you go, it is a big cunt after all.

I went to Minas Gerais and got addicted to feijoada (beans with pork and many tasty spices with orange, farofa, and some green stuff), many delicious fruits (like acaí), and some amazing stuff made out of cheese and potato.

Oh, and caipirinha, of course.

>>69151208
This desu. Traditional Scandinavian food is bland as fuck and doesn't make use of tasty fish like say Japanese or Mediterranean food does. They make damn good chocolate and other desserts but that's about it.

Personally, i can stomach most any kind of food that isn't meme tier and the quality of the ingredients matters more than what one is cooking.

In the Netherlands we have a saying: You can't dispute taste.

But we all know that's wrong. Because my taste buds never lie.

We don't eat Indonesian food that much. It's sold here as Chinese food. Literally. In Chinese restaurants we don't sell Chinese food, but Indonesian food.

It's impossible to generalize french cuisine since every terroir of France has its own products with its own traditions and gastronomy.
We have med stuff with Italian influences in the south-east, some spanish influences in the south, south-west has its own god-tier cuisine then we have mountain cuisine (like 3 or four styles for it), then much more germanic-style for places like Elsass or Champagne, and then more oceanic for Normandy even tho Bretagne has its own cuisine too (it's our only region that doesn't produce wine nor cheese).
