Secret food

Food knows no borders. Some yummy specialties still wait for international discovery (hence the poetic threadname lol). Post if you know about a yummi specialty which is not yet known globally. I would like to eat up all your suggestions too.

I'll post some yummi Hungarian and Serbian specialities which I am sure you haven't heard of. Try them if you want

1) Serbian: Burek - it's like a cross between lasagna & pizza. It is usually made with curd, minced meat, spinach (original) or nowadays pizza toppings.



2) Hungarian: Paprikás - a classic


3) Hungarian: Túró Rudi - a chocolate bar with curd cheese. It's worth a try if it is imported in your country. I know it is available in Austria, Estonia,
China, Poland, Russia and Japan with slight differences. It MUST be kept refrigerated since curd cheese may spoil.

 

The third is rather interesting.

We have one thing here that always makes foreigners go "wtf":

It's called "Mett" and it's usually served on bread rolls with onion. It's raw minced pork with salt and onions.
People love it here and it's traditional food that is only common in germany afaik (most common in northern and middle germany). O:

Fergburger in Queenstown,NZ. The taste is amazing and their smallest burger is big enough to put most burgers to shame. Expect there to be around 50 people or more queued up for it any time of the day.

 

I guess I'll play the Poutine card

Spoiler

Salty french fries, Gravy, Cheese Curds.
Honestly I have no idea why americans haven't taken this one to town, there is literally no aspect of it that doesn't threaten to clog your heart.

 

Naan, Curry. Mount Everest Restaurant for Pakistani food? Best place ever.

 

Naan, Curry.

Those foods haven't exactly slipped under the radar. They're about as secret as chow mein or ravioli. If you want to tell us about secret restaurants, well, that doesn't do a lot of good. We can't visit them.

 

Well, it's not really a secret food, but here in Saskatchewan there are no shortages of farms of any variety. This means that in the harvest season, we get tons of fresh food. And I mean really fresh, generally only a few day since harvest. Cooking from scratch with completely fresh ingredients makes food taste just so much better than otherwise.
