Do you like international restaurants?

In my country many of the international restaurants are actually cheaper than the local restaurants. Some of the Danish restaurants are quite expensive. Some time ago my husband and I went to a mini vacation in another part of Denmark and we decided to have traditional Danish food for dinner. The food was delicious but it was much more expensive then the average international restaurant. I like international food, but I also like to have traditional Danish food sometimes.

On this site you can find some of the popular Danish recipes: http://www.danishnet.com/info.php/food/denmark-recipes-214.html I would recommend the Danish meatballs (frikadeller) That is a very popular dish in Denmark. We usually eat them with boiled potates and vegetables. The caramelised potatoes which are also mentioned on that site is another typical dish from Danish. We eat them at christmas. Our traditional christmas dinner consists of roast pork or duck, caramelised potatoes and red cabbage.

Seems like, the prices of the food in the international restaurants in my area are having reverse prices from yours. For us, it is expensive to eat in international restaurants. I haven't seen any Danish restaurants being open in my area here yet. If possible, can you send message of a common recipe of your Danish food? I would like to give it a try, as long the ingredients are easy be found in my area. Thanks.

I can hear that you share my interest in foreign food. I have also tried every foreign restaurant in town where I used to live. When I visit Copenhagen I always visit one the international restaurants there, because it is best place in Denmark to find international restaurants, and it is possible to find food that that you can't find in other parts of Denmark. If I lived them I would probably eat out too often I have only had Moroccan food once, but the food was delicious. There used to be a Moroccan restaurant in the area where I live, but it doesn't exist anymore. Asian restaurants are much easier to find here.

Due to history, we have several north african restaurants in my town. Moroccan food is very good : I like "tajines" and the pastries, made not with sugar but with honey.

That sounds delicious When I was living in Italy there was a very good north African restaurant in my city, and I got the chance to eat food that I had never tried before. In Denmark there aren't many African restaurants, so when I eat foreign food I usually eat food from other European countries or from Asia.

Here we do like hot spicy foods any way I do. I like wasabi best because it burns then stops. The Mexican spicy foods burn and keep on burning.

Some of the foreign food that we can buy in Denmark is also different from the food that you can buy in those countries. The Danish food is not spicy at all and some of the foreign restaurants have changed their recipes and made the food less spicy so that the Danes will like it. That is a pity, I love spicy food and I would prefer to eat the original food instead of food that has been changed, but I guess that really spicy food would be difficult to sell here.

San Francisco is one of the best places to eat out. There are more restaurant seats than there are legal parking spaces. I love it when I go back to visit. I'm constantly finding new places there to eat.

San Francisco sounds like an interesting place to visit I wish that we had so many different restaurants here. In my country Copenhagen is the best place to find international restaurants and if I lived close to Copenhagen I would probably eat out very often. I live on an island. We have an Italian restaurant here, but if we want to buy food from other parts of the world we have to visit the neighbour island. Before I moved here I lived in a village and we had no restaurants at all, that was pretty boring.

That sounds very nice. I have only been on a few package holidays, and I usually travel on my own, but I have had the chance to visit many different hotels. It is always interesting to see what kind of breakfast they offer when you visit a new hotel. Sometimes I get disappointed and sometimes there are so many delicious things that it is hard to choose

I have some friends and relatives in the US and after my package holiday there I spent a few days with each of these and they took me to several hotels offering different cuisine - Japanese, Mexican....the works! But after a while I longed for my own food - curry and rice!

Which country are you from? In my country the international restaurants are often cheaper than the other restaurants. Many of the international restaurants have a buffet and I like that because it gives me the chance to eat many different dishes including dishes that I have never eaten before, and it is not very expensive. I have seen some expensive international restaurants here, but the majority of them are less expensive than the other restaurants. You mentioned Egyptian food, I have never had the chance to eat that, but I would like taste some Egyptian dishes.

I'm from the Philippines, and yes most international restaurants here are a little expensive.I had tasted Egyptian food when I was working in Saudi Arabia.Some of their specialty are Basbosa, Tamiya, and Egyptian pasta.

It is very nice to have a partner who shares your interest in food from different countries. My husband also shares my interest in international food and I am very happy about that. I think that it would be a little boring if he wanted to eat Danish food all the time instead of experimenting. I think that Chinese food is delicious. There are many Chinese restaurants in my country and I when I lived in a big city I had plenty of Chinese restaurants to choose from. Some of them had a very nice buffet. I also like Italian food. I have lived in Italy in the past and sometimes I miss the food that I my friends used to cook. Fortuneately it is easy to find Italian restaurants in my country so I am still able to eat Italian food sometimes.

There is an American restaurant in the city where I grew up and it was my brother's favourite restaurant. I haven't been there for a long time, but I think it is still there. The food is delicious, but unfortuneately it is a bit expensive. Chinese and Mexican restaurants are common in my country and I visit them pretty often. There was a very good Mexican restaurant in the area where I used to live.

I don't know Arabic food that well, but I know that Indian food is spicy. I like spicy food so I find Indian food delicious. You mentioned Italian, Chinese, Japanese and Mexican food, I also like that food from those countries. Italian, Chinese and Mexican restaurant are quite easy to find in my country, but there are not that many Japansese restaurants. I have never eaten at a Japanese restaurant, but I have had to the chance to eat Japanese food anyway, because I have some Japanese friends who have cooked some of their traditional food for me.

I also forgot to mention that even though a restaurant may say that the food is from a specific country and it may have that flavor, I've heard many times that it cannot compare to eating the food in the actual country. Chinese food for example: I've heard that the rice is different from the way it is prepared in fast food restaurants here. I think sometimes restaurants alter their recipes to suit their audience.

I think you are very lucky because you are able to get food from so many different places. You really have the chance to experiment and try many different kinds of food. I have never eaten Afghani food, but it sounds interesting. I live in Denmark and the best place to find international food is Copenhagen. There are restaurants from many different countries, especially from Asia. When I visit Copenhagen I like to try a new restaurant every time so that I will be able to eat some food that I haven't eaten before. I think you are right about international restaurants. You do get an impression of the food from that country when you visit the restaurant, but it is better to eat the food in actual country. I have never been to Asia, but I would love to travel around for several months, visit many different places and eat the local food in every country

I have visited many of the other European countries, and I always eat some of the local food when I visit a new country. The food that I had in Eastern Europe was different from the Danish food in many ways, and I liked many of the local dishes. There are also many Chinese restaurants in my country, and I like to visit them with my friends. I also love to visit the Indian restaurants. There is an Indian restaurant on our neighbour island. Is is owned by some Indians who live in Denmark and their food is very delicious. I love spicy food. The Danish food is not spicy at all and it is very different from Indian food.

I don't have a tv, but when I was still living with my parents I often watched the travel channel. I think is very interesting to see the pictures from other countries and learn more about the culture. I have also watched some of the food that they prepared. I like to learn more about foreign food. In my own country the national food isn't spicy at all, and I love spicy food, that is one of the reasons why I like to eat food from other countries than my own.

Yes, eating spicy food once in a while is delicious and can increase our appetite. I always cooked spicy food whenever i feel loss of appetite.

I also love Italian food. I have lived in Italy in the past the food is one of the things that I miss. Fortuneately it is easy to find Italian food in Denmark and I often buy different kinds of pasta or pizza. I have never had the chance to eat Korean food, because there are no places in my area which sell food from Korea, I would love to try it though. I have never eaten food from the Philippines either, because that isn't available in my country as far as I know. If it had been available I would have tried it, because I love eating food from different countries.

you should have filipino friends and ask them to cook filipino foods for you, i am sure they would be delighted for doing so.. hehe..korean foods are nice also.. forgot to mention japanese foods. in short asian foods are nice.. hehe

I think it is great you cook many different kinds of food. I am excited when my friends cook new kinds of food and I never say no when they offer me something that I have eaten before. One of my friends is from Indonesia and when we were neighbours she often cooked Indonesian food for me. I got to know some very delicious dishes that way. My husband and I always like to experiment and sometimes we find new recipes online.

When I visit other countries I do the same thing. It is a great chance to eat some of the dishes that aren't available in my own country and I always visit some of the local restaurants. I have discovered some very delicious dishes that way. I don't like every local dish that I eat, but I like to try the local specialities at least once. Last year I travelled around in Europe and I liked the local food in Romania and Slovakia. I would never have gotten the chance to eat that food in my own country because there are no foreign restaurants from those places.

I also think that it is interesting to eat new kinds of food and I get excited when I get the chance to eat some food that I don't know. Italian, Chinese and Mexican restaurants are common in my country and I like the food from those countries. We also have some Japanese and some Greek restaurants, but they are less common. There used to be a couple of Greek restaurants in the city where I was born, but they are all gone now.

Unfortuneately I have never had the chance to eat Korean food. Food from other parts of Asia is available in my country like food from China, Vietnam, Japan, Indonesia and Thailand, but I have never seen a Korean restaurant here and as far as I know there aren't any. I hope that I will get the chance to eat Korean food one day, maybe when I visit another country than my own. Spicy rice cake sounds delicious, I love spicy food. We have a similar website in my country, but so far few people have participated so it is not easy to find reviews or opinions about the different places, but I like the idea behind the website. It could be a nice way to find new inspiration and find places that I would like to visit.

I have never been to a Japanese restaurant, but I have eaten Japanese food because I have some Japanese friends who like to cook. I enjoyed eating their food. I think that you are first person in this discussion who mentioned Turkish food. I haven't had Turkish food for a long time, but there is a very nice Turkish restaurant in the city where I used to live. I would like to visit it again one day. Italian food is also nice. I used to live in Italy and sometimes I miss the delicious Italian food that I had when I lived there.

We have an Italian restaurant in my town, but no Chinese restaurants. If we want to eat Chinese food we have to visit the neighbour island. Yes, when we eat food from other countries we are able to learn something about that culture, and I think it is interesting to learn more about other countries and cultures that way. When I visit another country I like to eat the local food, and it is especially interesting if that food isn't available in my own country.

I have never eaten Korean food and there are no Korean restaurants in my country as far as I know, but I would like to eat Korean food one day. There are some Indian restaurants on our neighbour island and I like them very much. I think that Indian food is very delicious and it is much more spicy than Danish food. I think there are some Japanese restaurants in Copenhagen, but I have never visited them. Fortuneately my Japanese friends have cooked Japanese food for me.
