I've decided to create this thread where we nominate national meals for countreis, these meals have to be traditional or sterotipical for that country. Then from the most popular ones I'll create a thread where we decide which country has the best national dish.

I'll nominate two:

Canada: Pancakes covered in syrup, (real syrup from maple trees, not that cheap Aunt Jerimia crap) and back bacon.

USA: A good steak and french fries.
 
USA: Burger, Fries, Corn on the Cob, Watermelon, and Coca-Cola.
Jamaica: Jerk Chicken
 
Canada: Pancakes covered in syrup, (real syrup from maple trees, not that cheap Aunt Jerimia crap) and back bacon.

How do you reduce Canada's vastness into a single dish...?

I'd have to say...

For the atlantic provinces, some tasty fish dish...cod seems appropriate
For Quebec...poutine ;)
For the prairies...perogies
Alberta....STEAK!
B.C......pot brownies... :lol:
 
UK
Fish n chips, not forgetting the ketchup of course! nothing beats it
 
Bright day
Czechia : anything with bread dumplings.
Slovakia: well the official word is on kind of small potato dumplings with melted cheese, but it is not really that popular. I will just wait what Hungarians say and claim it for Slovakia.
 
I'll be stereotyphical because it's true; Meatballs with brown sauce and boiled or mashed potatoes, served with lingonberry jam, a glass of milk and possibly pickles :D .
 
USA: Burger, Fries, Corn on the Cob, Watermelon, and Coca-Cola.
Jamaica: Jerk Chicken

I want the final dishes to be relitivly even in how much they include. So I think usa can't have all of that for their national dish and jamaica needs more than just jerk chicken.

"I'll get the grill on shall I? Shall I put some chutney on it?" "Oh, don't go mad Rhodri, it's only Fiji.

Of course, I could equally say England's national dish is a curry, and Scotland has the deep-fried mars bar.
 
Steak and some fries or something is fine for the middle of the country, but here, we eat pork. And up in the frozen North, we eat clam chowder.
