You like Somalian food? I hear they eat banana with rice?

I rarely eat out at restaurants so my choice of cuisines is imited to Pakistani/North Indian and good old British Fish 'n Chips.


Italian food is good as well.

somali food is very underrated, they have one of the best rice/meat dishes i have tried, and yes they do have banana with rice, its unusual but a nice experience.

isn't generic afghan/iranian food similar?? of course the regional foods will be different

arabic food servings are so large. i had some yesterday and i haven't developed an appetite for a proper meal ever since.

the banana they cook is called plantain bananas and they are not always sweet when cooked.

Karachi, Iranians and Afghans do not have the same cuisine.

Iranians use green peas and saffron in their rice.....usually they do not let the rice to get very soft, making it like a dry structure. They dont eat much stew like meat or biryani style dishes. They use lots of fruits in their dishes. Their kabab tends to be dry as well. But with a lot of tomatoes and onions on the side. Their bread is different too.

Well nothing can beat the taste of the Afghan cuisines !!

Dam pukht, Tikka, Kabaab and most of all the Afghani Pulao !! Brilliant !!

I had a Thai Green Curry last Ramadan after I came out of the airport. It was kind of an essential iftar meal that I had at the hotel restaurant. The rice was predictably sticky. I can't remember what I had for desert, suffice to say the selection on offer was Thai.

The after taste of the curry was so strong that I could still taste it for weeks after and it gave me serious doubts as to whether my fasting after that particular Iftar was valid as a result.

Also, on a side note please NO aubergines. Or at least not so many. I had so many aubergines when on vacation in North Africa one year, that I was hallucinating them when I got back.

Lebanese food is amongst my favourite especially Shish Tawook, variations of which also turns up in places like Kabul and Istanbul.

Moroccan, Lebanese, Greek and French... but I rarely eat meat.
