Let me tell you, Filipino food owns all especially if you've had it. Pansit is amazing! I also like Lumpia and Kare-Kare. Other than that, I like Chinese and Mexican food, not too spicy though! I visited Manilla and Bagio City in the Phillippines, and loved the hospitality and emphasis on home-cooked meals. I'm a veg-head, but much of the Filipino dishes contained meat. But my hosts were oh too happy to prepare my food to order, without any dead critters floating around. And they were just as courteous in the resturants. There was one dish I especially loved, but I can't remember the name. Brocoli, tofu and other delacacies were among the ingredients, but what made it so delicious was the inclusion of vinegar and soy sauce. It's an awesome combination I use in my cooking even now. I've found it goes really well with broiled potatoes....yummmm. Oh, and the vegetarian lumpia dipped in a soy sauce/ tobasco/ calamansi juice mixture is to die for! Pansit is so good it makes a meal in itself. If you enjoy traveling to distant lands and savoring different food, I can highly recommend a visit to the Phillippines. I've done a bit of traveling, and although parts of this country are in almost third world straits, the food is always prepared in clean and sanitary conditions. I never once got sick from the usual food born illnesses associated with travel in poorer nations. But the best part about this food is that it's prepared with love. Bon appetit! |

If I Had to choose a food I Would choose mexican food. because a long time ago when I was young I hated tomatoes anything with tomatoes wanted me to gag. So, one day I tried salsa just for the heck of it.. Then I loved mexican food. I started making Chips and salsa from homemade and then, I started selling it by the can so, if you never ever tried anything mexican you will get addicted to it forever the spices are amazing and, don't try to say teco bell is a mexican resturaunt

Maybe if you travelled to Greece, you know the greek Souvlaki (Gyros), the famous dish which can be found in every corner...
Well, that is really the best food I can think of right now, still.... This is the health and fitness section so the souvlaki will neither make you healthy or fit So, I'd recommend a greek salad...You know how great the mediterranean food is ! |

Oh yeah, after I got out of college I had a chance to visit Cofu, Athens and Thesonoliki (am I spelling that right?) and the food was divine. And talk about fresh. What I liked about Greece more than the other mediterranean countries was it's proximity to the near east. Humous, Falafel, Tabouli and the like were integrated with regular Greek fare. And I can't get enough of those olives. Heaven! The crazy thing was some of travel mates were looking for the nearest McDonald's with all this wonderful food right in front of them. I didn't remember seeing a McDonald's in Greece, though. That's probably changed by now, unfortunately. |

In terms of health and fitness, I think I have invented the perfect energy food:
Mayonnaise Tuna Peanut Butter Sugar Chicken Broth Unfortunately it doesn't taste all that great, but, hey, it smells fine. But mostly, I like mexican food, carbilicious noodle dishes, and chinese takeout. |

You can't beat some good Mexican food. It can't be that wannabe food that you find in restaurants. I have yet to find a great Mexican food restaurant.
