Venezuelan Christmas food :pirat: :

pan de jamon, just bread with ham and raisins (?) inside, but its so tasty :ohnoes:

Spoiler:

ensalada de gallina, yah, its not what you think :lol: that reminds me we sell it on our traditional "expoferia" (a christmas sale, only some schools take part of it) and it ran off like hell.

Spoiler:

pernil, its just tasty pork, kinda like the turkey on USA, bot not filled, of course.

Spoiler:

and of course, the hallaca, no one can live without it, we traditionally give hallacas to friends and family a day before we do them (we usually do more than 40, this year we did ours the 23th, means, yesterday :lol: )

Spoiler:

merry christmas to all

There is but one Dutch food that really connects itself to the month of December, it's the famed 'Oliebollen' (that's plural, by the way)

You do not want to know what Oliebollen would mean in swedish :lol:

by **The Dude** Mon 10 Jan 2011 - 3:11

I think I might already know. :lol:

Uuh Nope you don't. Smile

I recently went to a tapas restaurant for a Spanish Class. I thought the food would be like Mexican food, but it is so much better! Spanish food is amazing! My favorite was the 'Queso De Cabra Con Tomate,' which was a delicious garlic bread with tomato sauce mixed with goat cheese for dipping.

by **peugeot407** Sun 8 May 2011 - 8:12

The only kind of Spanish food I've had, ever, is Paëlla...

Paëlla is awesome. I Personally love Colombia,Chinese, and Italian food.

by **The Dude** Sun 8 May 2011 - 14:39

They had really good paëlla at the restaurant, had some nice clam sauce, giving it a nice flavor.

by **peugeot407** Sun 8 May 2011 - 20:46

I don't really like Paëlla... Mostly I think it's because it has a way too wide variety of seefood in it (fish and shrimps are delicious, but they can leave the squid and mussels out), but as a general rule, I think the flavour of paëlla is too undefined, it's too many things mixed. Perhaps some nice sauce can help, I don't know.

I do absolutely adore Italian food though.

What's wrong with squid? I like squid and also octopus... I've never eaten mussels before, but to be honest, it looks good.

Chinese food and especially rice is still my favorite food. Also their noodle soups are delicious.

by Harkimo Tue 10 May 2011 - 0:55

My favourite food is probably lasagne.
Rice is not among my favourite food, mainly because the school food in Sweden's public schools destroys the taste of it and everything else.

by **iliander** Tue 10 May 2011 - 0:57

Hmmm... yes. But you should eat Nasi-Goreng from a Chines, THAT'S delicious.

PS: I also like Lasagna. Very Happy

by **peugeot407** Tue 10 May 2011 - 1:21

Nasi is indeed brilliant, but I more prefer Bami/Bahmi myself. It's not Chinese though, and you'll only find it at Chinese Restaurants who also do East Indies food. Not that there's a shortage of those restaurants in the Netherlands or Belgium... Razz

Lasagna tastes good, but there is no dignified way of eating lasagna, there just isn't. You're always going to get embarassed about yourself. But the taste is brilliant, there's no denying that.

Anyone here ever have kielbasa?

by Harkimo Tue 10 May 2011 - 16:27

Nope. Isn't that a tool?

by **The Dude** Wed 11 May 2011 - 8:35

No it's Polish sausage. Rolling Eyes

by Harkimo Fri 13 May 2011 - 5:55

Ahah.
Btw, I think I thought of Calabash.

by Paco the Great Sat 4 Jun 2011 - 19:49

We have (in Britain) many foods. In Wales, Welshcakes. They are delicious! There's also, in Wales, this thing which is potato and cabbage, but I can't remember the name. And Cærphilly cheese!

In England, crumble, shepherd's pie. Wensleydale and Stilton cheese.

I don't know about Scotland, however.
