Tell Me about your favorite FOOD
 

What is it that makes it so irresistible to you?


My favorite food is anything INDIAN.

I'm a curryholic. I can't get enough of the cumin and curry leaves and cardamon and hot peppers, garlic, tumeric etc all turned in that golden yummy gravy and simmered for hours :drool:

What is your favorite food of all time? Why? Is there a memory attached to it?

That sounds delicious. This is a hard question. I love most foods and love trying new foods. I guess my favorite food is potatoes. LOL that sounds so weird but you can do so much with them! Growing up we grew our own potatoes and had them year round at virtually every dinner fixed in every possible way imaginable. I love potatoes. (as I read this back, it sounds like such a thing a farm kid would say, LOL)

mine is vietnamese food!!!! My uncle is vietnamese. He came to the us when he was 18, and as we were growing up we always wanted to go stay at their house to have him cook for us. He makes the best egg rolls i have ever had. Vietnamese egg rolls are nothing like any other egg roll you will ever eat. And now we try to to find the best vietnamese restaraunts, since he moved away. But nothing is like his authentic real vietnamese food!!!

I love alot of different kinds of food but I dont know that I have an overall favorite. I like variety. Lobster is very high up there though

I love potatoes!! Would it surprise you to know that curried potatoes and cauliflower are delicious? :D:D

Vietnamese food is also a favorite of mine! :drool:

I love love love FLORIDA LOBSTER!!!!!

I love Florida and Maine

Maine is good too ~ but a bit too sweet for me.

You guys are making me hungry w all this lobster talk - YUM!! I love it plain, stuffed, lobster rolls, lobster pasta....:D

I have a soft spot for everything MEXICAN (food, that is :rolleyes:). But not that nasty chain food...real, cooked from scratch mexican food. Tamales, enchiladas, empenadas, green chile sauce...and topped with lots of cilantro seasoning, cheese, sour cream, YUM! And let's not even get started on fresh salsa, guacamole, and warm, homemade corn tortilla chips....:woohoo: Wow, now I need to go find something Mexican (food, that is).:droolin:

If only I knew how to cook authentic Mexican food...

I absolutely LOVE Mexican food as well :thumbup::thumbup:

Chiliquiles Verde YUM!!!!!

Moodie Foodie
 

I am a moodie foodie. I don't really think I have an absolute favorite food, however I do have a long list of things I love....

I love good ole mashed taters with lots of butter and black pepper.
A good ribeye, cooked medium well - just a tinge of pink in the middle.
Hot yeast bread fresh from the oven.
Cheesecake - favorite is plain and close runner up is Turtle Cheesecake from Cheesecake Factory.
Fried okra
Brunswick Stew
Americanized Chinese food
Mexican food as long as it doesn't contain Cilantro
LOVE LOVE LOVE Hatch Chilies - the world's best!

I could go on and each would be right up there with favorite food, but I don't think that was the point of this thread :rolleyes:

Heck, I'm making myself hungry and I just ate lunch -- a sample of the yummy broccoli casserole that I'm making for Thanksgiving Wednesday :D.

UM I Have a plain cheesecake factory cheesecake in my freezer right now. I love cheesecake but Im like you I like it plain or just a light strawberry sauce on it

I love southern food. There's nothing better than fried chicken, mashed potatoes & gravy, corn, biscuits and sweet tea!

Now I'm hungry.

I love Indian food. Hands down, best overall food category. Second place would probably be Thai food.

Specific foods I love include: crab (real, fresh crab, not that imitation nonsense), hummus (with celery, cucumbers, and pita bread), samosas, and gourmet mac and cheese.

And I realize that cayenne pepper is not a "food," but I seriously would add it to almost anything.

I actually agree with everything you typed :p :thumbup:

My fave is Japanese, easy. Not only are the foods always healthy (except the tempura LOL) the presentation is just so beautiful. The only downer is it's so expensive! Even a humble bowl of ramen, is really much more complicated than you'd expect, esp if you're used to the instant kind!

But I really love lots of kinds of foods, and I like most every kind of cuisine. Still haven't had a chance to try Ethiopian though!

Let's see...my favorites
Japanese: uni sushi of course
Chinese: wonton mein, honey walnut shrimp (tie)
Korean: any kind of bbq beef
Thai: green papaya salad
Vietnamese: bahn mi dac biet (that means special combo baguette)
Indian: braised lamb shank or that curry veggie dish with califlower, peas, carrots, etc
Mexican: lengua and cabeza tacos, huitlacoche (tie)
Colombian: bff's mom's beef and potato empanadas
Salvidorian: pupusas, fried plantains with creme (tie)
Italian: real style thin crusty pizza
seafood: if not uni, then crab, shrimp, or lobster
soul food: Roscoes chicken and Waffles, and their egg cheese and onions
Persian: lamb lule kabob with that rice with the cranberries in it
comfort food: mac and cheese
food truck: Lime guys are pretty dang good
guilty pleasure: Del Taco deluxe nacho fries :eek:
salad: the sashimi salad from Kaori, my fave japanese restaurant
snack: pickles, olives

I'm sure I'm forgetting something.

Ethiopian is FANTASTIC!! You would LOVE the injera bread!! So nice and sour :drool:

My all time favorite food would have to be prime rib! Hubby and I could eat it every day if we could afford it.

A close second is spaghetti or chicken alfredo.

Hi,
Curried potatoes and cauliflower. Sounds interesting/good. Is the recipe posted. Give Sugar a pat from me and the Z Gang.
Bob

Aww I agree with you :thumbup:

I think my all time favourite is seafood - all seafood - cooked or not cooked any which way :)

We spend a lot of time in Cornwall - generally Padstow - and have done since my childhood. There's a wonderful seafood retaurant there owned by chef Rick Stein. He has a deli, shops, hotels etc. too. In fact he now has his fingers in so many pies there, they now call it Padstein :cool: Sally x

I will find a recipe to post. I generally am a "lil Bit" cook. Lil bit of this and a lil bit of that ;)

How are you and Jo doing? Been a long time since I've actually made it over to Satellite Beach for more than a day!

I've heard it said the best cooks don't measure! ;) You've got me interested in the recipe too if you don't mind.

Here is a good representation of the dish :thumbup: It's called aloo gobi
