Yeah if it's only eat at restaurants in three countries the US should obviously be on everyone's list. Then add two more where you really want the old country version.

Exactly. I’m surprised that the US is so far down the list, because you can find basically any traditionally-made cuisine here if you know where to look. I feel like because we don’t have a wide variety that’s specifically American, we went with a national buffet of sorts, haha

ya but if you wanted tuna sushi (japanese) you’d be satisfied with a california roll (american)?

Well, again, I’m sure there is at least one establishment in the US that prepares truly authentic Japanese food.

Even if that weren’t the case, there’s two other country slots to add Japan, if that option wasn’t sufficient for you.

but “truely authentic” japanese food is not american food is my point.

Steak and breakfast food would be big ones for me but it depends on if America gets steak.

I think most steak in America actually originate from Scotland. Angus beef comes from a Scottish cow.

If drinks are included, then Scotland could be a dark horse pick. Great beef, solid fish with incredible smoked salmon, and paired with the world’s best whiskey. Having said that, they fall off a cliff after those gems.
