What’s the best local dish you’ve ever eaten while traveling?
Well, since I married a Thai woman I am partial to Thai food especially street food. That being said I have eaten food all over the world and so many come to mind, in Paris is was the croc monsiure from a sidewalk cafe near the Eiffel Tower, during that lunch my wife was looking and found a Thai restaurant nearby that we went to for dinner. A few days after that we were in Switzerland and the restaurant in a tiny village had the most amazing fondue, I can taste the cheese as I am writing this and we did shop at the local Co-op often. Our trip to Danang Viet Nam brought a plethora of seafoods each dish more delicious than the previous one. When we’re home in America in our little mountain town there is the best barbecue I have ever eaten, we go there once a month and more when friends come to visit. When we lived in Florida there was and still is awesome seafood even after so many of those restaurants closed after hurricane Milton the remaining restaurants stepped up their menu. I grew up in New England and I have never been able to find clam chowder quite like the one I grew up with and you be hard pressed to find a better lobster bake anywhere, we would get a strong fire going in the fire pit cover it with seaweed from the Atlantic throw some lobsters on it with a couple of bags of clams cover it with more seaweed and wait awhile melt some butter when it’s ready dig in and you swear you’re in heaven.
