PGT Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 We're blessed to have a veritable cornucopia of places around...within an hour's drive, we can have food from any region, any country in the world. We even have one of the best restaurants in the world within an hour (best in the US and best Inn in the US). Herndon is near by and they're proud of the epicurial diversity - click. If we ever move away, we'll miss it for sure. I'm a fan of middle eastern, especially Afghan food lately. What are you eating? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I am ethnic! not really.... I love Japanese food, detest Korean (even though I am), love Mexican, Italian, and some Thai dishes. Sushi. I love sushi... but cooked meats, not the raw kind. Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrownBoy Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 I'm on a Middle Eastern food streak right now...anything lamb is good in my book! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted January 6, 2008 Author Share Posted January 6, 2008 korean food? uggh. that's the one thing I can't do. I'm also not a fan of sushi, though I've been known to eat ceviche. hypocrit? perhaps Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 everytime I go some place, some little Korean lady wants to feed me Kimchee. YUK! :puke: i love love love sushi though... but I'm sure that has something to do with spending the first 2 yrs of my life in Japan vs in Korea. Also, I've been a huge fan of Indian cuisine and Hawaiian chicken (can't remember what it's called but AK Wagon got me hooked). Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!!

PGT Posted January 6, 2008 Author Share Posted January 6, 2008 around here, we get Peruvian chicken. so good. a pitcher of maracuya to wash it down and toasted corn to crunch on. http://www.ambassade-equateur.fr/images/maracuya.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eldiablo Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Stomach still churning from the spicy Indian dinner tonight - downed by a few Kingfisher beers it hurts so good! Also a fan of Thai and Ethiopian food. There's a middle eastern joint near me that has a belly dancer on the weekends (hot) but she scares my kids so we don't get there much anymore. The only time I'll avoid ethnic food is while on an airplane to the far east. That stuff is the worst. I made the mistake of ordering the "asian" box lunch vs the "american" lunch on a flight to Thailand and was served a fish head in a box which everyone else on the plane seemed to enjoy.

ddavis Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 Love me some PHO. Also im originally from Louisiana, Ive eaten anything from crawfish to emu. Nothing really bothers me but those damn tapioca balls in my drinks! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest heightsgtltd Posted January 6, 2008 Share Posted January 6, 2008 PGT, what korean have you had? Dishes like Bul Gogi which is marinated beef you would prob really like. I like Korean, but not Kimchi. I also like middle eastern food, and there are a couple of Ethiopian food restauarants that I really like in NYC. You eat mostly with your hands, and the plate is really bread that you eat too! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Abandonhope16 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 I love ethnic foods, I'll pretty much eat any variety. Plus I live in Herndon so I have my choice of the many delicious types within walking distance. One place I loved was Saffron Garden (middle eastern type food), which unfortunately closed after a few short months. It had a descent location but terrible marketing. Too bad.

PGT Posted January 7, 2008 Author Share Posted January 7, 2008 across from Jimmy's right? never got to eat there...we wanted to, but I left my job in town back in June Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Abandonhope16 Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Yup. Too bad it closed, it was probably one of my favorite new places. Had a variety of Kabobs and wraps. Had good service too, they just didnt get their name out amongst the numerous restaurants in the area. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sactojesse Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 Why no love for Korean food? Bulgogi and kimchee = In addition to Korean food, I love Chinese (Mandarin, Szechuan, Hunan, and even Cantonese), Japanese, Vietnamese, Thai, Indian, Mexican, Italian, German, British, Irish, Jamaican, Costa Rican, etc. Of course, I'm Chinese and we're essentially human garbage disposals. I'll pretty much eat anything except ketchup and coleslaw. (Cole's law = there are certain combinations of edible ingredients that, when combined, produce inedible results.)

Guest heightsgtltd Posted January 7, 2008 Share Posted January 7, 2008 PGT, I heard that Inn at Little Washington is great, but we havent been yet. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tito_b0y Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 Love sushi, but hate the way Filipinos cook/present their seafood. I'll eat anything Filipino that doesn't have any seafood in it. On another note, Halal chicken and rice drowned in white sauce, anyone??

PGT Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 PGT, I heard that Inn at Little Washington is great, but we havent been yet. I think it's beyond great from what I've heard. Top ten in the world takes something more than just great. We'd be down for checking it out....it's a once every 5 years kind of menu....price wise. Next time you guys plan a trip, let me know....they are something like 12 months out on reservations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ddavis Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 hate the way Filipinos cook/present their seafood Ha, do you mean fried up whole where the fish is looking at you and filled with bones? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PGT Posted January 8, 2008 Author Share Posted January 8, 2008 that's not bad....that's a staple in Jamaica. A fried fish and a Red Stripe for $3 US Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonardo Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 ^^ Yo tambien. Somos tres entonces! I love Puertorrican (DUH!!), Cuban, Italian, Mexican, Japanese, some Turkish and some Greek. Can't forget Chinese. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxx Posted January 8, 2008 Share Posted January 8, 2008 I eat pretty much any food I dont like korean BBQ & I'm not a fan of about 1/2 the thai menu. I'll eat anything else there is "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama! I'm the president...of hittin' the ass!" -this is not a political view it's merely a quote from a hilarious tv show.
