    What is your favourite food?

    It's summer and I love summer food cooked from fresh vegetables.

    My favs are:

    1. Fried peppers in tomato sauce - a typical aromanian food.

    2. Eggplant salad.

    I'm partial to Salmon, or Yellowtail Sushi, Crowned rack of lamb, a nice Chateaubriand, or Prime Rib (blood rare)
    Beef Carpaccio, Veal scaloppini, baby octopus (a la plancha) Spanish green olives stuffed with anchovy (Tapas style), and lest I forget freshly cooked French baguettes with butter, to name just a few.
    May the forza be with you

    Oh dear...were do I start here ? My home made pizza, with tuna, olives, cappers, anchiovies and plenty origano ?...or the gnocchi di patate with home made pesto sauce and grana padano cheese ?...or how about the classic spaghetti alle vongole ? Defenitelly meet (except for Lamb) isn't my fave food as you can read but I love all kinds of pasta, soups, home made pizza, and plenty of fish and vegetables. And I always love to finish my dinner with differents cheese

    As for the wine...italian only :

    Forgot to tell I like it in romanian style ( with onion ).

    Also forgot to tell I like "zacusca" but it's too much to work for it.

    Oh dear... food, where do I start
    I'm easy to please and enjoy any food and trying new dishes, but classic favourites would be:
    English: asian cuisine ( ), me mum's steak&kidney pie, chish & fips
    Spanish: suckling lamb leg or chops, rabbit al ajillo, fabes, bocata de tortilla, fish
    German: sauerkraut (hehe only kidding)

    Minced meat+rice+spices wrapped in sauerkraut leaves = delicious dish called "sarmale". There's no romanian celebration without them. Not to mention that the sauerkraut juice is good for hangovers.

    Sounds like a cabbage roll to me.

    Yeah, at the end of the day they are cabbage rolls. We cook them with pork meat and sauerkraut in the winter. In the summer the sauerkraut leaves are replaced by vine leaves and they are served with yougurt or cream.

    Must tell my mother to cook some....
