Each nation has its specific peculiarities, traditions, history and cuisine as well. What cuisine do you prefer most of all? Please, share with you preferences.
Sorry, FangFang, as usual I was in a hurry and mispelled the word
Hiiii,Pamela:
Sorry, i don’t know what “cousine” is 
, Please give me more information and I 'd like to talk about it .8) 
since I am from asian, I like Chinese, Japanese, and Korean food,
Hi, Pamela:
Thanks, i learnt a new word
It is a very interesting topic. Hope i can make a list of chinese dishes here, . Well, to your points i 'd like to introduce some .
We have a variety of food cultures in China. People in the north prefer foods made from wheat. Interestingly The Yangtze River seems to become the line marking our custom diversities. We , the southern chinese ,enjoy much rice. In fact, there are many factors affecting people’s food customs, such as discrepancies in locality, weather, population , science , productivity, natrual commodities and so on. You may know there is a famous region in China where products are rich, “The Yangtze Delta” (where i am located) , because the natrual conditions and weathers here are quite suitable for plantation. What’s more, the transportation here is very convenient as a transit center in the east . Besides , many cities were the ancient Capitals like Nanjing, HangZhou . They helped to inherit and develop our glorious cultures including the food customs.
Southern foods emphasize the style, elegance and taste. Among them the Shanghai Food (the southeast) , SiCuan Food(the southwest) and GuangDong Dish(the south) are typical . Personally i prefer SiCuan Food . It’s well-known that people in the southwest like to eat spicy foods. I don’t know why we enjoy this kind of dish , may because of the weathers . There is a famous Basin in SiCuan Region , many mountains as well. Much moinstness and few sunlight compared with those in Plains. Spicy foods are healthy.
One of my favourite food is spicy chickens. It is easy to make . Materials are as follows:little chickens(500g) , pepper (cut into small pieces，enough but not so much or you will be very terrible ) , white wine (250g) , salt .
Step one: cut chickens into small pieces , put them into a plate and add the salt , the white wine as well. Then stir them together ( 20 minutes needed) . Make sure the chickens taste well.
Step two: fry chickens with peppers (those red pieces) , well, it is easy as what you do as usual at home, of course, you can add some gingers when frying them . Of course, water is neccessary (a little ).
I think this dish is very easy for you to make, but i am not sure whether you can get used to spicy foods.Few people enjoy eating spicy dishes. All depends on your taste. Of course, too much spicy foods are harmful to health. Remember to eat some sweet things (it will save you ) if you can’t bear that so much,
Ok, talk to you later .
Chinese food is among my favourite and Lebanese cuisine is the one I prefer.
Hi, I find people don’t use “cuisione” so often in english, What’s the difference among" cooking" ,“recipe” and “cuisione”,
Hey Conchita …
you are right about lebanese cuisine but ,You forgot" Damascusian" cuisine !!!
Yami Yami :lol: :lol:
Herc
Hi, Herc:
Introduce us your yami foods! 
Hi
I’m a fan of lots of different cuisines. One of my favorite cuisines is Thai. There is a wonderful little Thai restaurant nearby and we go there extremely often. Yummy, yummy!
I agree with FangFang. Come on, Herc, give us some details about “Damascusian” cuisine!
Amy
You’re right, FangFang. The most common term is ‘food’: Indian food, Mexican food, Damascene 
food, etc.
‘Cuisine’ refers to the style of cooking. ‘Cooking’ is the action of preparing food or the food that you cook.
Recipes are the instructions for cooking something: I’m trying a new recipe for toad-in-the-hole.
I like all different kinds of cuisine.
If I had to eat Chinese food morning, noon and night, I’d be perfectly content.
I like Indian, Thai and Mexican food, but not every day.
If I married a Middle Eastern woman who served me Middle Eastern cuisine all the time, I’d run away from her and find something else to eat. Maybe I’d eat two days a week at home.
I also like good old American barbecued steaks.
I like Czech (and therefore Polish and Russian) food, but when I lived in the Czech Republic I started to go crazy after a while, because Czech food has a narrower range of textures than American food does. Everything was a variation on the bread texture, the meat texture, the potato texture and the sauerkraut texture, and it was rare, for example, to find things that were crunchy. Food that Czechs thought was spicy was not spicy.
I meet a lot of foreigners who say they hate American food, and when I ask them to explain, I find out that they think American food is only hamburgers. When I ask more questions, I find out that they’ve only had hamburgers at McDonald’s, Burger King or Wendy’s, and have never eaten what Americans think is a REAL hamburger.
And please, don’t anybody make that stupid argument that there is no such thing as American food. There is.
Do you like those lamb stomachs stuffed with brains?
It sounds a bit like the Scottish haggis! I’ve never heard of that dish in Lebanon (and don’t think I would try it!), it mustn’t be very popular there – perhaps it’s regional. But if that’s your idea of Lebanese cuisine, no wonder you think you don’t like it 
!
Lebanese food is Mediterranean with an exotic accent. It includes a wonderful selection of vegetarian dishes, each more colourful and delicious than the other. These are my favourite, though I also enjoy some of their meat and fish specialities. A little Arak or red wine to wash it down… and sahha!
Hi!
I myself eat what does taste good. Even the French “tribe” :shock:, before I knew what it is.
Michael
Hi again
Well, If you want me to tell you about our Damascene cuisine and Lebanese cuisine , you will make me so hungry … so I need to be so patient during writing this post…
and you need to know why our cuisine is the best in the world !!! so …come on with me…
First of all , our cuisine or all Arab cuisine depends on "AL-Halal food "or in the same meaning "the spotless meat " …!
so our food is very healthy and the researches confirmed that …
Kabobs " broiled meat " and Kipah " broiled , fried … and we depend ( like all Mediterranean folks )on Olive oil on our cuisines ,so we are the most healthy people in the world , and the researches confirmed that …!
Secondly , we depend on many kinds of vegetarian dishes " Appetizers " The Salads or Fatoush or Tabolah or Moutabels somethings like that " and all of those kinds of dishes are presented before the main meals …" forgive me my friends , I can’t give you all details about last appetizers because I think I need to special forum to did that …
Thirdly …Desserts …Wow
I think that there isn’t any thing likes our Damascene Desserts " hand beaten ice cream " and the most famous candies are "Kinafah, Madloukah, birds nests ,Warbat with cream … and more and more …
Fourthly, our cuisines depends on love !!
yes , love …
Fortunately, our food is cooked by our mothers and our wives, and they cook meals by themselves , they need to enough time to did that and they have that time to do it … they cook at our homes and they always try to give us the best meals …
we don’t need to the express food " like REAL hamburger or BOGUS hamburger … :lol: :lol:
Even Though We Have Both McDonald’s And KFC In Our Country … :lol:
Herc
OK, now try to imagine this same comment of yours uttered by a woman: “If I married a Middle Eastern man who served me Middle Eastern cuisine all the time, I’d run away from him (…)”. I wonder how it would sound to most people. No, I don’t wonder at all, I know it would sound strange, even if we changed the demonym.
In other words:
Knowing you as I do (I hope this doesn’t sound too weird :lol: ), your comment struck me as odd (well not at first, to be totally honest), since I’d expect you to say something more like “I’d do the cooking all the time or I’d try suggesting we share the cooking”. Come to think of it, leave out the ‘I’d try suggesting’ bit – it wouldn’t sound like you at all :lol: !
Michael, did you mean 'French tripe’ :lol: ?
I have never eaten the stuff, but I don’t think I’d have a problem trying it someday. It’s not the lamb stomachs stuffed with brains that bother me. It’s hummous and tabouleh that nauseate me. I don’t even like to be in the same room with them. I can’t believe people take good vegetables and ruin them by making hummous and tabouleh out of them. Just terrible!
Hi Conchita …
but do you think that there is any Middle Eastern woman will accept him and agree him as a husband !!! :!:
… I’m not sure :lol: :lol: :lol:
anyway, I think some of people had refereed before they tried any kinds of food… but most of them ( like you [size=150][color=orange]Conchita [/size]) refereed and could relish and enjoy after they had tested the " real food " …
Hey Jamie, I invite you to come to my country and I would you test some of our famous meals …
by the way … If you invite me to your country , what kinds of meals will you offer me except " your REAL hamburger " ?
Herc
Tabbouleh is one of my favourites! I can only hope you haven’t tried the real stuff, because I fail to see how adding olive oil and lemon juice to fresh chopped vegetables can ruin them. Or maybe it’s the burghul or parsley that deter you? As to hummous, I quite like it, though I prefer Baba Ghannoujh (or ‘mtabbal’ – the French also call it aubergine caviar). Have you tried that? I don’t know if it’s the texture or the smokey flavour I like best, but I just love it.
Some of my other weaknesses are mloukhie, fattoush, mahnoush b’zaatar, falafel, khyaar b’lubban (cold yoghurt anc cucumber soup), baamieh (okra), mjuddra (lentil and rice pilaf) or kibbi. I could go on and on… The variety is incredible!
Just ask for any recipes
