Has your nationality/regional dish been featured in FFXIV's cooking recipes?

If you count house food, we have the Giant Beaver Burger, and it's glorious.

I’ll take a fur burger to go, please!

[Catwho]

No soul food, so nope!

Right there with ya. Needs more collards and grits and cornbread and sweet potato souffle.

The most famous hyper local dish for my area is chicken mull, a sort of chicken stew often sold at BBQ restaurants in a very narrow slice of North Georgia, East Carolina (both N and S), and western Tennessee.

Pan con Pollo. Best damn sandwich you’ll ever eat.

Beaten by a simple burger...

California rolls: Nope. FFXIV has real sushi, not western canadian sushi.

(Canadian "cuisine" is not the healthiest stuff in the world.)

Umm the name tells you where it came from, not Canadian.

Nope. Vancouver. Or do you think french fries come from France too? And regardless of origin a food can still be considered a national or regional cuisine. E.g. pizza is italian not american. California rolls are typically found on top 10 lists of national foods in Canada and you can't take 2 steps in Vancouver without coming across a sushi restaurant with their lunch special being a bunch of California rolls. It's ubiquitous.

Fatburger is nasty and has no flavor. Easily the worst burger I ever had. Ate that crap twice. Once to try it and years later when my wife didn’t know any better and brought some home. Gross.

As far as that Patrami sandwich. I don’t like pastrami so to each their own.

With Pan con Pollo, you’re in flavor country. Obviously I’m exaggerating as saying it’s the best sandwich (I wasn’t making this a competition), but it is one of the most flavorful sandwiches you’ll ever have. They’re not easy to find, and some restaurants are lazy and throw in whole chicken parts with bone, instead of shredded chicken like it’s supposed to be, but when you find a place that does it right, you’re in for a treat. Other than my parents, the best Restaurant that does it is in Garden Grove not too far from Disneyland. On the same street as the main entrance about 10 minutes away. It’s called La Flor Blanca. There are many restaurants with that name that don’t seem related around Los Angeles, but only the one in Garden Grove does it right from what I’ve tried. I don’t live in Garden Grove anymore and have been trying to find one that does it near me and it’s hard.

That looks like a corned beef sandwich (specifically a Reuben) to me, not pastrami. The coleslaw and sauerkraut gives it away I think, since a pastrami usually just has mustard and maybe a pickle on the side.

Alright. Does it taste like pastrami?

[SnowVix]

Corned beef is basically pre-pastrami. It lacks the peppery goodness of a good pastrami

[Mhaeric]

No. They're quite different, but if you don't like pastrami you probably won't like corned beef since the differences aren't like chicken vs. beef. It's more akin to the relative difference between cooked salmon and smoked salmon. They're both salmon but have different flavour profiles.

Oh, and all this reminds me that we also have Montreal smoked meat up here which is in the same vein as pastrami and corned beef but different. If I ever have a smoked meat sandwich it's likely to be this one.
