hmmm.... chilli crab.

our signature dishes are diverse and "no originality" since we're a multiracial society & our fore fathers are migrants..

I'm from Finland, and our "famous" foods are so strange xD

First there's the Easter treat called Mämmi: http://en.wikipedia....wiki/M%C3%A4mmi

It literally looks like s*** but it's actually made from rye flour and molasses so it's sweet. I love eating it with milk and a bit of sugar on top.

Then there are different foods made from berries as well as reindeer meat. And maybe Karjalanpaisti? It's a meat dish where you have pork and beef (and sometimes lamb as well as kidneys etc), onion and maybe carrots. It's all poured into a salty broth and heated in the oven for at least 3 hours. The longer the better. It's really good, I swear!

Other than that people are usually surprised when they hear we eat tar candy and ice cream. It has such a nice and smoky flavour though~

Lol the same. Mämmi is sooo good with cream and sugar. And you can't forgot rye bread! You gotta love that bread, after eating it for almost whole life, other breads have no taste at all.

England: Roast with yorkshire? If we're being stereotypical, it's probaly tea & scones. You've got to love scones <3

Nepal: Dumplings/ Dim sum (but we call it momo [; ). I've never met a single Nepalese person that doesn't LOVE them. Personally, I HATE them .___.

China is too vast to encompass into a few dishes so from my region:

  • Hot pot with lamb (apparently not everyone eats lamb slices)
  • Suan cai, or Chinese sauerkraut
  • Lamb skewers with cumin
  • Stewed meats in hearty sauces
  • Pork fat and its various derivatives

- rawon (beef stew with black broth and bean sprouts)

- soto

- sayur asem (vegetables soup with sour broth)

- sup buntut (ox-tail soup) -> I know it's not from Indonesia but it's popular as a traditional dish in this country
