While the world continues to become a smaller place as we become more and more connected by the internet, planes and email, the world still retains huge diversity in culture, food and music.
While arguably this is becoming less and less so (who thought we'd ever see a McDonald's in nearly every country in the world?), the distinctions still remain clear: if you ask someone what American food is, they'll likely reply hamburgers and hot dogs; Italian and the response is pizza and pasta; Indian and you'll hear shouts of curry; Chinese will have them shouting chow mein, egg rolls and chicken fried rice. Regardless of where you are in the world, there is an acceptance that there are different types of food, which have evolved from the different cultures of the world.
World Cuisine
In an attempt to try as many of the different cuisines in the world (and there are a lot more than I could have ever imagined), I went about creating myself a "Restaurant World Tour", every week I go to a new restaurant and sample the cuisine of another country. I tried a couple of Chinese by the usual suspects in my journey, and as Americans, but I also tried some of the more unusual cuisines of the world.
I must say that was my "out there" experience is a visit to an Ethiopian restaurant in Tampa. I will not lie and say that my experience is even more beautiful, but the point is thatI made a concerted effort to try, without which I never in the range of foods that I have now, including the Korean, Vietnam, Peru and Austria have experienced.
