Which Asian Cuisine is your favorite?

[Masquerouge]

Japanese mainly because Sushi is my favorite dish, but overall, Chinese.

Indian cuisine is good (mmm naan bread, mmm butter chicken), but isn't east asian

Ahh damnit, I saw the title of the thread as "Asian Cuisine" and didn't notice the OP's stipulations...

I generally like moderately-authentic Chinese food. I'm not a big fan of the cheap stuff you get as takeout or at a mall, and although I haven't tried it I don't think I'd like the super authentic stuff involving chicken feet, eyeballs, preserved eggs, and whatnot.


I've never tried Filipino food.



I used to really like Hibachi (but not sushi), but it hasn't been as good lately.


I was not a fan of the food when I went to an authentic Korean restaurant with people from my predominantly-Korean on campus church.


I like a lot of the food at a nearby asian fusion type restaurant, but I'm not really sure what kind of food to say it is. I think it is largely Thai, but with other influences and not necessarily very authentic. One of my favorite dishes there has "Japanese" in the name, but from what I've heard it is really closer to Thai. I like the curry there, although probably not quite as much as Indian curry. I've strongly disliked their Pho, but have never tried anyone else's.

Yeah "fast" Chinese food is wayyy too greasy for my usual tastes - but reallllllly good if you're drunk and/or hungover.

The semi-authentic stuff is the best.

[rhawn]

I don't like Thai. I love Japanese food.

 

[GoodGame]

First sushi, then Thai, then Indian curry, then anything Chinese.

 

[Mad Man]

I hear Mongolian food is good. I have to try it some day!

It tastes like Russians.

It tastes like Russians.

That reminds me of a injoke as to how Kraft knows what Italians taste like

Japanese will only win because of the weeaboos on this board.

If it came down to actual quality and taste, Vietnamese and Thai would be in a draw.

Thai, easily. So much variety and such strong flavours! There were three amazing Thai restaurants near my old house. It was wonderful and I miss it.

Never tried anything Filipino to my knowledge, not a huge fan of Japanese food. Korean and Vietnamese are interesting, I don't think I've tried enough to judge but I've liked what I've had.

Chinese is such a variety of things it's hard to say (Szechwan? Shanghai? Taiwanese? Cantonese?), but there's always something good on the menu. Yum Cha is awesome!

Also: Indonesian (I assume it was Javanese) is ok, and Malaysian is basically like Thai food mixed with Chinese and Indian.

 

[Kerozine]

All of the above.

Are there any Asian cuisines that aren't based so heavily on sauces and soups?

 

[Felix Luce]

Problem with Japanese food is that so little of it is vegetarian....it's annoying cos the only meat they ever really eat is fish, and usually it's just hints of fish, like in udon (fish paste is an ingredient, no?). So it's like it's almost there which is annoying, just like they are with religion....

Anyway, Cambodian or Thai.

 

[Cheezy the Wiz]

You might try Indian food; it's often very heavy in vegetables, as vegetarianism is very popular among Hindus, and just Indians in general.
