manitoubass2 Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BillM Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) 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.

Gerritt Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) 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. G Edited November 26, 2014 by Gerritt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lew Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 (edited) 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. Edited November 26, 2014 by lew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SmokestackLightnin Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 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.

limeyangler Posted November 26, 2014 Report Share Posted November 26, 2014 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! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
