Thought I'd ask this because I want to discover more foods from across the world

(Also I shouldn't have to say this to americans, please state where you are from and state where you are from without acronyms or shortened names because I've seen US Defaultism on lemmy and not all of us are going to know your acronyms considering we're global users)

A store-made bagel, with 2 over-easy eggs and a thick slice of a spiced ham product called (pork roll) or (taylor ham), a slice of American cheese, and "salt, pepper, ketchup".

Commonly with bacon, sausage, or regular sliced deli ham replacing the meat. Sometimes with hot sauce instead of ketchup. The bagel can be any type, but is often "everything".

NYC area, mostly north New Jersey.

From Arizona / Mexico:

Birria, especially Birria Ramen. It's slow cooked meat in a broth of spices and a bit of onion and Chiles. It's fall apart tender, and usually served with melted cheese (Queso Birria). But my favorite version is served on top of Tapatio Ramen. So it's fork tender beef with spicy noodles.

Really great on a cold day.

Funny thing is, I'm from the East Coast of the US, so actually have a bunch of favorites from there that are really worth giving a try too.

Especially a REAL Cheesesteak.

Shaved Ribeye cut thin and grilled on a hot surface for a char. Grilled and charred onions and green peppers. Add it to an Italian soft roll that's warmed, NOT toasted. Melt on top of it either Cheez Wiz (an Aerosolized Cheese snack that's awful by itself) or American cheese. Mix it all together on the bun along with a few slices of Italian peperonchinis and a couple dashes of celery salt.

Incredibly unhealthy, but quite an experience if you ever get to try one (or make one yourself! I'm literally eating one I made for dinner right now haha 😂)

Living in japan. Sashimi/sushi would probably be my current fave. Not shocking, but true. Second would be all the lovely grilled fish and seafood we get here.

If from the US, so for that probably anything tex-mex.

Minestrone. Not local to me, but a great dish nonetheless

Pepperoni rolls (which Ive never had but it is a regional favorite)

Pawpaw bread

Home-fries with ramps

Strawberry rhubarb pie

Very, very tough question...

🇵🇹 Maybe Polvo à Lagareiro or Arroz de Polvo. I really like octopus...

Pork butt roast and sauerkraut. It's a traditional Pennsylvania Dutch recipe meant to bring good luck and fortune to the household on New Years. You simply season a pork butt with salt and pepper and put it in the slow cooker with a large container of saurkraut and cook on low til it shreds. Served with mashed potatoes, peas, and pork gravy. Guaranteed to give you a food coma.

For appetizers, I love beet-pickled eggs. It's essential to pickle them for 24+ hours to ensure the pink fully penetrates the egg white.

Boston baked beans. To my taste, good ones are cooked low and slow so that the beans almost start melting together, and they should be both sweet and tangy.

Used to be Käsespätzle, but i had too much in december and november that i have grown sick of it.

Now i guess it would be A potato soup & apple noodle (not a pasta. A yeast dough with apple cinamon sugar filling

Tex mex breakfast taco.

Egg, bacon, cheese, tomatillo salsa.

Good for any meal. Takes less than 15 minutes from start to clean. Delicious and filling.
