The Best Thing I Ever Ate...

Knerys · 12-03-2012, 06:59 PM

What do you all like to eat? From fast food to locational to cultural?

Justin · 12-03-2012, 07:03 PM

I have to say, while in Barcelona, they had the best food I've ever had. Healthy, filling, and very Mediterranean. Delicious stuff. They had this traditional dish called patatas bravas (spicy potato, I guess) and it was outstanding. Potatoes with aioli sauce. Greek food is possibly my other favorite.

Coming from a family with Greek heritage, I agree.

I couldn't find the ones I took when I was there, but here you are, courtesy of Google:

Patatas Bravas.

That looks fabulous.

I'm really American in my ideology of Food. I just love Food. I don't really care what Food it is (except for seafood). I just love Food. Probably would explain why I was 140 pounds overweight at one point.

Knerys · 12-03-2012, 07:37 PM

Any ideology is fine. Give us spefics.

**JBond** · 12-03-2012, 08:00 PM

I love just about any kind of food. I'm a big fan of Mexican, Japanese, and Chinese. I'm not very big on Italian. (Unless it's alfredo. Otherwise I think it's tomato sauce-based foods that put me off) And I love seafood, always have.

As for American, I looooove fast food. Nothing beats a burger "with everything."

Justin · 12-03-2012, 08:03 PM

That sushi looks incredible.

Ewok Droppings · 12-03-2012, 08:15 PM

I'm a big fan of Pho

Leg of Lamb (But I absolutely hate to see people ruin it with mint jelly - blecccchhhh!)

And pork roast (I like mine cooked with a pineapple and cherry glaze)

I also love grilled Swordfish

Those are my favorite main courses.
There's really too many types of food to pick a few great ones though

Knerys · 12-04-2012, 11:13 AM

So you're a vetatarian then, Ramplate.

Ramplate · 12-04-2012, 07:02 PM

Well, I like a lot of different things

I do weigh 245lbs at 5'7"

BBL with some other favorites.

have to think about what foods I really love.

Right off the top of my head, just about anything to do with mushrooms, pasta, potatoes, stir fry dishes, i love Caesar salads and other types of salads.

**Frizzo the Clown** · 12-04-2012, 08:36 PM

There is a little place here in Tulsa that makes really awesome puffy tacos, and the best churros I've ever had. I could eat at that place everyday. I can't afford to, but I would!

**JBond** · 12-04-2012, 09:40 PM

I've never been a fan of fish. Salmon's good, but the rest is pretty boring.

Ewok Droppings · 12-05-2012, 12:45 AM

Blasphemy! I love fish... especially shrimp, crab and lobster.

Justin · 12-05-2012, 12:46 AM

Pho is awesome.

Is that a joke?

Ramplate · 12-05-2012, 03:46 AM

I'm no up for too much fish unless it's battered or breaded and deep fried. Most fish is pretty bland otherwise.

I'd have to say my three favorite are swordfish, blue fish, and tuna (the sushi grade stuff - nice steaks of it, with pepper lightly seared on each side - that is delicious!)

Mmmmm tuna (twice as expensive as swordfish though)

For shellfish, same with clams - stuffed or breaded and deep fried.

Shrimp is great too - I could eat a whole ring of shrimp cocktail by myself lol

Lobster and crab - I don't even like the look of them or the way they smell when cooking, but I will eat surimi - love a good seafood sandwich.

---and yes I love tacos gotta have really hot sauce on them though. and Chili

I make a mean chili with scotch bonnets

Most Scotch Bonnets have a heat rating of 100,000–350,000 Scoville Units. For comparison, most jalapeño peppers have a heat rating of 2,500 to 8,000 on the Scoville scale.

**JBond** · 12-05-2012, 04:05 AM

Heeeeey, try some smaller pictures.

bbf2 · 12-05-2012, 04:27 AM

Fish and other seafood is great except for the fact that it always costs a huge amount of money for a relatively small amount of food.

Deexan · 12-05-2012, 05:22 AM

JBond's tastes seem most akin to my own so far. I absolutely love making burritos and fajitas, and my Chinese weakness is shredded duck with hoi-sin sauce.

I'm addicted to sweet cherry peppers stuffed with goats cheese at the moment, I have a tub-full every day for my lunch when i'm at work:

So moreish.

One thing I have never tried is sushi. I should get around to that.
