This always pisses me off... the "natives" are also immigrants, they just happened to get here earlier... and their assertation that they were first is debateable since the oldest human artifacts found in North America pre-date the arrival of the "natives" by approximately 5000 years. |

You will always find stereotyped gastronomy like "Chinese", "Italian", "Peruvian", "French" food, and rarely find a "North American" or "English" restaurant. Anyway, all these foreign restaurants located in countries abroad, will never achieve the quality of a local cuisine. In that order of ideas, saying something like "English" gastronomy is awful, is absolute ignorance; unless you have lived there for a period of time, and if you have, I'm sure you have to had find a couple of magnificent dishes.
The only “criticism” you can declare when talking about gastronomy, is a merely recommendation about your local realm. Everything else is confronting a whole world you know about and can potentially smash yours. |

I disagree completely. There is no good Irish food IMO. |

I've heard people say Chinese food abroad tastes better than Chinese food in China. Something about quality of ingredients
And I've never found much of a difference between Korean food in Korea vs Korean food in Toronto area. (And I'm Korean) |
