Don't get me wrong I love "fusion" food. I was in Italy and they had a "California Burger" pizza that was pretty much a Big Mac on a pizza. It wasn't bad, but I wouldn't do it again, good for a novelty.

When I was living in the UK, kebab everything after a drunken night was the best thing.

This concept is actually also pretty famous in Germany, its pretty good. Sure , far away from Italian Pizza but still awesome. A kebap shop in my area makes one with a tomato Sauce base, veal kebap meat, Feta cheese, green peppers (pickled, very similar to banana peppers), shredded Mozzarella and a very good garlic-dill Kebap Sauce on top of the cheese after baking. Its amazing, especially when drunk.

A fellow Marco Polo believer?

I mean there are some bloody great things to eat in Japan that you won't get anywhere else. I am a huge fan of Nagoya TanTanMen and a guilty lover of Ichiban Ramen (a chain that does a curry ramen which should be considered a travesty but is great) but also if you look for world gold medals in pizza, patisserie etc over the past few years you'll find Japan has quite a few.

It is a very very food oriented culture.

You can even now get really good quality NZ lamb just by the palace nowadays (traditionally Japanese have a habit of saying lamb is too smelly to eat).

[I cook for my wifes family when we are here in Poland and obviously try to to use the local stuff, my sister came to visit and I needed bacon for dinner. She was all "what brand do I buy?" Nope. Look for the yellowest bit that has some string through it and just buy it all ahahahaha]

Yeah, true authentic Italian pasta. This is why I asked about japanese specialities. I wonder if they are stiff the same way Italians are about their carbonara. This kills me too 😂 i can see you are familiar to polish foods btw. Btw2: pasta isn't Italian invention too;) Edit: oh . You are Polakiem ;) wszystko clear

If you are in Poland I have some bad news for you regarding sushi and ramen ahahahaha the stuff here is really quite as unique as Polish pizza :)

On the bright side gyoza is just fried kapusta i czosznek pierogi so you'll dig that if you go to Japan.

Curry is, from memory, the biggest selling food group in Japan but it is Japanese curry which is interpreted from English curry which is interpreted from Indian curry ahahaha

I guess I'd say that Japan has more regional food specialities than Poland but an awful lot is mostly for internal tourism rather than for actual preferences. Just like in Poland, who doesn't like kielbasa podwawelska the most except those weirdos in torun?

Tempura is a portuguese thing. Ramen (and kind of most noodles) is chinese. Sushi is just the rice. Curry is english and so on.

Food is pretty cool. Unfortunately some foods are super gatekept (usually by pretty ill informed individuals) and Japanese food is one of them.

If you ever want hilarity try and post "A full English Breakfast" or "Carbonara".

Hahaha I love your approach to the topic. I'd love to join your club! I'm surprised again. I thought Japans are restricted to foods. Isn't that? What about Japan classics like sushi, noodles, ramen etc.(I know that there is much more great foods in Japan except sushi , I'm sorry)

Says my experience and every other menu in Linköping and probably more or less the rest of Sweden too.

Edit: OK I guess you're from Uddevalla and not Linköping, every pizzeria in Uddevalla has salad on the kebabpizza so I give you that but the rest of Sweden have without.
