Hypothetical-- you can only choose two cuisines to eat for the rest of your life. What might they be?
-
Eh, but why GREEK..?
(I'm assuming you're not referring to the gross slabs of reconstituted meat, roasting unhealthily on the rotisserie?)
Nah... Well... Occasionally lol
-
Um... you mean the Carnivore's Cone of Delight, endlessly rotating in front of you like a car in a showroom?
Yeap, I love it!
(but I also hate it for my health, if that makes sense?)

- Indian
- Mexican
I try to eat mostly vegetarian at home, and Indian recipes are my go-to for that. Indian food is the best tasting vegetarian food in my opinion. I was tempted to put Chinese here because I make tofu stir fry somewhat frequently, but I go with Indian recipes more often.
Mexican for the second choice because that gives you huevos rancheros, Mexican rice and beans, and homemade corn tortilla chips with guacamole. And breakfast burritos from the place down the street from me.
Same for me.

For me it's Indian food, but then... what else? Ugh... what a question.
Bah. My mind is a whirling blank right here. I mean, freshly-prepared tiradito right off the boat is like... ffff, like tasting heaven.
I mean, I've never had *truly* fresh, truly authentic sushi, but I imagine it would be like tiradito? (note: it's a form of ceviche, i.e. latino lime-cooked fish slices)
India is an entire sub continent of food, its like saying "european"
-
- Mexican, what is life without salsa?
- French, can't miss with those standards
Hmm, I was going to go with Mexican and Chinese but French has now thrown me!

wrote last edited by [email protected]I go with the two big Is.
Italian - because you have never truly lived if you didn’t eat authentic Italian food. There is a reason Italians take their food serious and there is so much to explore beyond pizza and spaghetti.
IndianUK - because sometimes you just want to shove that Chicken Tikka Masala in your face. Fun fact: The best Chicken Tikka I ever had was in fucking Perth, Scotland. Make of that what you will.Edit: Turns out what I call Indian food is British. So, at least one good thing came out of the Brits colonising half the world.

For me it would be Indian and Italian with mexican as an honourable mention id sorely miss.
All three are super easy to make on your own too and almost everything I make could be classed as imitations of either. Heck, I already make Christmas pizza every year instead of the usual Christmas dinner. A few years I've made Christmas enchiladas too which is why I'd miss mexican but I definitely have more curries than mexican over the course of any given year.

Middle Eastern and German
Dürüm and Shawarma

A famous Anthony Bourdain quote about Japan states: "If I had to eat only in one city for the rest of my life, Tokyo would be it. Most chefs I know would agree with me". He also famously described his first experience in Tokyo as being like "taking LSD for the first time," a transformative experience that changed his perspective on the world.
I agree, for me it would be Japanese food, it's so diverse and so refined.

Middle Eastern and Indian has some of the best vegan food.

Vietnamese and Italian.
Pho and pizza is already my diet and I wouldn't change a thing.

Indian and German .
My favourite main is lamb vindaloo and my favourite cake is black forest gateau. Additionally pretzels and pakoras are great snacks.

It counts. It's still 1 country. It might be cheating a bit but it still counts.

Scotland takes curry very seriously. But also I'm pretty sure tikka masala was first made in Britain so technically you want British food. Sorry about that.

Does "American" count as a cuisine? 'Cause it encompasses just about everything else, as long as I don't need it to be "authentic."

What if I told you that most dishes people call Indian are actually Bangladeshi via Birmingham, England.

Well Tikka Masala was invented in the UK, so that sounds about right.
