[outllaw]

guys and ladies. while we just went thru a upsetting turmoil here . lets talk. whats yer favorite ethnic food. seeing as canucks and mostly immigrated years ago or parents. whats your favorite home made favorite culturally.

I will start mines my wifes borsch.. perogies home made artery pluggin good.

[manitoubass2]

We love to cook as a family, so I could list many lol. Im ukranian, norwegian, german and italian(mutt lol) and my better half is aboriginal, so we have a wide range and sometimes we incorporate everything haha

 

I too love borsch and puddaha. I also love fry bread, gnoicchi, pastas with home made sauce.

 

I think my favorites though are slow cooked stews that incorperate whattever fresh ingredients and spices we have at the time. there always abit different but always super tasty

[BillM]

I love Italian food, nothing beats my moms homemade manicotti. Now if we're talking about something completely different, then the goat roti at Shandras Roti Shop on Maingate in Mississauga is to die for. I'm also a sucker for good Indian food as well.

I just had this for the first time in a small "gastropub" in New Jersey a few weeks ago. Funny cuz it was listed on the menu as "grammas recipe" lol

 

btw, dont ask me what a "gastropub" is........I do not know

[manitoubass2]

my italian grandfather makes the same thing for breakfast everyday and its awesome. he makes a homemade flat bread but the name escapes me? almost like a pancake. the its just topped with linguinni noodles, olive oil, salt pepper and some oregeno. then abit of parmesan cheese

 

hes eaten it his whole life and laughs cause it cost like maybe $2 to make a few plates

[Gerritt]

Mine is probably my Oma's Gehaktbal, or her roast beef (made that yesterday) slow simmered in butter and cloves, served with garlic mashed, sourkrout and pepper corns.

 

Rookworst stamppot is another favourite in my house.

Can't beat a big prime rib with yorkshires and mashed taters.

 

And seeing as my Grandparents and Father all came from England it's quite fitting.

Jamaican Oxtails over a bed of rice....and anything Ukrainian

[ccmtcanada]

Love a home made lasagne and sushi!!

[SmokestackLightnin]

I acquired a taste for Chinese Food when I lived at Spadina and College 25 years ago. I can never turn down a good Dim Sum restaurant and love BBQ pork and duck. I am not a huge fan of mainstream Chinese restaurants and love going back to the old stomping grounds and visiting the restaurants.

 

I also love Vietnamese food, roti and Japanese cuisine.

ever have kapusniak?

[limeyangler]

Anything my dad makes (Caribbean food) especially his home made Roti. Also Lamb Sharwarma Kebabs and there is nothing like a traditional English Sunday Roast (lamb, yorkshire puds, roasties ,greens, swede and carrot mash drowned in gravy). A new addition to my favourite cuisine from 'other' cultures is a Canadian fish fry!

[DRIFTER_016]

Used to love going to Christina's on the Danforth after getting out of the clubs.

A big fan of Asian cuisine as well as Italian.

[fishing n autograph]

My wife is Vietnamese and I have the privilege to eat my mother in laws delicious cooking all the time. My favs would be pho and their version of a sub, bun mei.

 

I'm also a huge fan of sushi. I crave it all the time

Grammas sure knew how to cook, the best recipes in our family are handed down from grams. That there is the definition of "comfort food"

[Raf]

Just replace that lamb with beef and you're all set Simon
