Russia has some good food. Unfortunately I only have a picture of the most clichéd dish ever, but I've had and made some other really great food that I'm too toasted to remember right now.

Filipino food is indeed pretty awful. I work with a lot of Filipinos, and most of them are really good people, and never eat their own food.

[Anonymous No.4713884]

the steak, stew, roastbeef look awesome. i hate cooked cauliflower. pies can be good but i have been usually disappointed. i have some britbong friends that can make killer homemade pies though. english food fits the climate. oh yes its been raining for 4 weeks and we havent seen the sun....perfect climate for stews and pies and cooked mashed things. nice and warm and heavy and exactly what the doctor ordered. oh and the god-tier fish and chips.....oh god....

BUT

...let's try some of these legendary sausages....OH MY FUCKING GOD THATS AWFUL....like is there even meat in here? if i wanted bread in a casing....just no.no. nononono. one of the most shocking and disappointing meal experiences of my life.

i also had my first proper IPA that meal as well. still do not get why adding some awful tasting shit to beer so beer could work in india has turned into "oh this is wonderful." "best beer ever." blaugh. i immediately thought of the film good morning vietnam and the bar scene when he finds out the beer is laced with formaldehyde.

i also dont call curries british. went to a curry place there and succeeded in getting a proper indian curry after finding out the hard way previously that curries are different in england. the brits thought i was crazy and the staff did too. my stomach thanked me though.

Canadafag here. i lived in England for 6 months and i actually enjoyed their food. I miss fish n chips and i miss the currys i had because no matter how hard i try i can't imitate the flavor. Complain about their typical meals all you want, hell i tasted mushy peas and they taste the way a loud fart smells, but the British definitely make the best biscuits (cookies) and cakes. To the point that while i was living there i could understand why so many people are obese. I've had this craving for cherry bakewells that's never going to get satisfied because i can't find them here.

I'm sorry you've not tried a really good place. They *do* exist and have done for many years (but are a bit more common outside of towns and cities, though fish and chips tends to be better in urban settings due to higher throughput keeping things fresher).

Knowing where to go, which restaurants have good food, that's the tricky bit. There are some terrible places too, alas. (The sooner they go out of business, the better. Let them make way for someone who'll serve good food!)

That is all.


Oh, you're still listening. Look, it's crappy. I won't eat it. The only thing in it's favour is that it is really very cheap and requires virtually no skill to prepare; frozen batter, gravy granules, follow the idiot instructions, done. (Making it from real ingredients is rather more complex, time consuming and expensive, as it produces lots of lovely roast beef as a side product. That's *my* kind of side product.)

to be honest there is similar problem with german food. in the cities you usually find shit-decent level german cuisine. (of course you can find fantastic stuff but you have to know where to go.) the shit stuff is usually cheap, shitty ingredients, etc. the better places take better care with the food but it can be really hit or miss. thats why most people bitch about german cuisine. they come and try something at some whatever restaurant and complain and with reason, too. the best i have had is in little places in shitsville-nowhere. the only exception was from the cook at Der Unterfahrt jazzclub in munich. big tubby bavarian,gay as a christmas tree and kept hitting on the straight guys but the schweinsbraten was out of this world. he took pride in his kitchen and food like a doting father and wow....just wow....i'll be back there in a few months and i cant wait.

i think it's similar with england. everyone goes to london which is fucking expensive and either do something like get a pie at a train station and gag or get confused at all the choices and just walk in somewhere. they get meh food and pay too much for it and bitch forevermore about the cuisine.

i need to start thinking of food options as i will be in london in a month and want to have a better go at english cuisine.

Like many other cultures of Germanic origin, the English cuisine is based more on practicality than trying to be fancy. It also happens to be very open to outside influences as well. Most of the staples of English cuisine (and German is also similar in many ways) are usually rather easy and accessible... plus they usually go very damn well with beer.

dowland (check the lute works and the songs), gibbons(viola da gamba consort music), lawes(consort music), byrd, jenkins, and dunstable just for starters. for those of you who know anything about music, the easiest way to harmonize is to sing or play in thirds. dunstable was the first to bring it into the mainstream 13-14th century. the new technique took continental europe by storm and to this day we still use thirds constantly to harmonize and give harmonic direction.

My cousin, an Italian, read law in the UK and became a barrister with Gray's Inn. I've gone to visit him several times now and I agree with his sentiments on Brits and their cookery: decent native cuisine, great baking tradition (pastry, which is common attributed to the French is actually of English origin) but absolute rubbish when it comes to interpreting foreign dishes.
Even something as simple as the American hamburger gets ruined beyond redemption by Brits with the addition of eggs and rusk.
Were a Brit offer to treat me to his/her homecooked Sunday roast, I'd be all for it, but if s/he offers to prepare bœuf à la Bourguignonne, I would have to politely decline. Were a Brit to offer me a baked good, I'd snatch up the opportunity so quickly, you'd think I'm jonesing for a fix and I'd just been offered heroine.

I believe that the same thing applies to any other national dish.

Not particularly fancy or exotic so Americans don't care. There's also a problem of people not taking pride in it, since they're being constantly told how bad it is and not going to the effort - continuing the cycle. The traditional sauce/meat combinations for roast dinners like:

Lamb and mint sauce
Beef and horseradish sauce
Pork and apple sauce
Poultry and bread sauce

Complement each other really well, especially if they're homemade. Britain's got great ale, cheese, pastries, deserts and sausages too. And the fact that the furthest point from the sea in the UK is about 70 miles means getting fresh seafood is a piece of cake. Bread and ham are a bit meh and it's too cold for decent wine, although wine was introduced by the Romans and so the British have been drinking it for as long as any other extant civilisation and have had a little influence on French wine by creating demand for characteristics that were made fashionable in London. Sparkling wine, for instance is believed to have been first appreciated by the English.

I don't think it's the abomination that the rest of the world sees it as, nor do I think it's the world-class cuisine that a few English celebrity chefs want it to be, but it's pretty good and there are a few dishes that deserve to be in your repertoire.

Oh look, people who don't know anything are talking again. British food is great and all you are doing by refusing to eat it is denying yourself something you may like. Oh well.

What exactly is wrong with sausages and beans? You Americans always throw a hissyfit over beans when baked beans were invented in America and you never say shit about all of the beans you eat in Mexican food.

Britain has more varieties of sausages than Germany. More types of cheeses than France too.

They spice ground meat and forget to put it in any kind of casing. Then they rename it "sausage". God knows why.

Curries can't be British in the same way as Marinara source can't be Italian because tomatoes originate in Peru, or pasta is only oriental, not Italian because noodles are Oriental.

So when an American says they are eating a sausage they mean they are eating a blob of minced pork. What's the point?

I tried making one recently (along with most of a Christmas dinner) to silence people who say 'If you really liked it, you'd have it all year round'. It's lovely but it feels so wrong when it's not Christmas. Stupid traditions.

If that's your logic then apple pie, hot dogs, hamburgers, chilli, pizza, french fries, donuts, mac and cheese aren't American. The only thing you're be left with is american "cheese", corn and pepsi.

There's too much alcohol in a christmas pudding to spoil. It's doused with brandy when made, which is what's flambed later after being left to mature. Are you the kind of retard who throws a shit-fit because your beef is hung for weeks before you buy it, or that your cheese was made months in advance of you eating it?

I don't, in fact, like christmas pudding personally. But all it is basically is suet, dried fruit and spices: nothing particularly disgusting. It's a traditional celebration dish dating back to the middle ages.
