Spinach and ricotta or meat?Cannelloni, I don't understand why every Italian restaurant doesn't make this.
Well, she was french and from Canada, so that's probably what she made. That and awesome rum balls, which we _do_ still have the recipe for! Maybe it's because she used a lot of Rum...you could always try making a French-Canadian Tourtière. These are fantastic meat pies and relatively easy to make.
Spinach and ricotta or meat?
There is one correct answer.
Choose wisely!
Oh, and I miss *real* fish and chips. From the English part of town where I was born. Tall dark wood benches, fresh haddock, perfect amount of crispiness and chips (fries) to die for. I was too young to try the beer. Also, great potato and fish cakes. Last time I was down in that area the shop was gone. I didn't look for the English bakery not too far off, which was also excellent.

a choice between halibut or tits, well..... I have to go with halibut.Halibut or bust
I tried numerous fish & chips stores here. So far the best place is Archies. They have great chips and their halibut is awesome but it ain't cheap any more.Oh, and I miss *real* fish and chips.

WHERE IS THISAnother few from where I use to live:
'Wah-Kee Noodles' - a chinese place that made the rice noodles in-house. Best hangover remedy food ever. Big bowl of tong mein with bbq pork and governor's beef...mmmmm.
'Bandung Indonesian' - obviously it was mainly Indo food, but they had the best Pad Thai in town, better than any of the Thai restaurants I went to.
Funnily, these two restaurants are almost neighbors, literally in the same stripmall-type building.
That's a valid theory...looking into it.Those were the one! I think my mom would call it Chinese Stew instead of Chop Suey but it was the same thing. It wasn't authentic Chinese food at all but was so good. You know what, I think our moms got the recipe right off the La Choy can.
Italian enchiladasCannelloni, I don't understand why every Italian restaurant doesn't make this.
Look up Jacques Pepin on YouTube. He'll show you how to make crepes in 2 minutes. Great skill to have in your pocket for a quick meal or dessert.Crepes from the booths at Christkindlmarkt in Bavaria, with gluhwein. I'd start out with ham or salami and cheese, then go back for one with chocolate sauce and powdered sugar for dessert.
Also the doner kebabs and hendl from the neighborhood food truck.
Cod is the fish, Russet (or Piper if you're in the UK) is the chips. Otherwise you're a poser.Halibut or bust
