Most seafood.

Anything that comes with an accompanied "drizzle" or "jus".

Just bring it to me with the bloody Gravy will ya !

I'm not a fish lover at the best of times but when I do eat it then I insist that it is cooked. If I'm forced to go a sushi restaurant then I just end up eating the rice and vegetarian dishes (which aren't too bad) and try to avoid even looking at people eating raw fish. Even the sight of people putting raw fish into their mouths turns my stomach.

Sushi is not raw fish. I love sushi but I do not eat any fish, raw or cooked,

I'm not keen on Indian restaurants but last year I visited a Bengali restaurant in Banbury (Voujon) and thouroughly enjoyed. it.

Nandos.

Cannot understand the popularity.

Greggs is a cheap, downmarket bakers shop, not a 'popular type of cuisine'.

I genuinely can't think of anything, there are odd things from all different cuisines that I'm not bothered about but I'd never write off a whole cuisine. I find it weird how people can say "Indian" or "Chinese", that's like saying "English" yet you wouldn't find anyone comparing a Sunday roast to fish and chips. I find it totally unbelievable that there is no Indian or Chinese food that they'd like. Szechuan is completely different to Chow Mein which in turn is completely different to Sweet and Sour. A Korma is nothing like a Pathia which in turn is nothing like a Rogan Josh.

I've got a cookbook that is entitled "Curry" and it must contain around 500 recipes, I find it ridiculous that people would lump all those together and go "I don't like curry".

All the people saying Sushi. You do realise that Sushi is rice? You can have all sorts with it, vegetables, meat, fish, then you've got the raw stuff that's called sashimi. Yummy.

There's a lot of raw fish used in sushi dishes so you really need to know or ask which is which before eating..


Me, I'll eat anything except veal.

The best sushi has some for of raw sea creature though! I love surf clam and baby octopus.

We've had a thread on here about it before but I can't stand food served up on anything but a plate.

I will try any food, from any country but I like it to be a proper adult sized portion and I don't want anything on a lump of wood, a piece of slate or served in a mini bucket or tiny chip fryer basket.

Healthy food

No there isn't.

Sushi is just a sticky rice with vinegar, wrapped in Nori seaweed with a filling. The filling can be made up with vegetables, eggs, meat or fish/shellfish.

Sashimi will contain raw fish.

Dessert sushi is a sticky rice pudding wrapped in rice paper, and the filling will be chocolate or fruit (or both).

How come you won't eat veal? Its just a young cow. No different to eating lamb IMO.

Also not keen on sushi but will eat just about anything.


That's not what you said earlier.....

Any takeaways/fast food other than Indian and occasionally fish and chips.
Those frozen pizzas from places like Iceland.
Barbecues. Mainly because I don't eat meet.

Yes, I agree!
More so is an "enterprise" that offers to sell you a hot-stone along with raw food/ingredients and you cook yourself your own meal at a premium price...
That has to be the worst excuse for a restaurant, but "some" people think its great and buy into it .

I don't like Indian or Thai food. Have gone to two buffets and tried a little of everything they had, didn't even find one that I liked.

- Any type of fish, just the smell alone.
- Meat pies. I cannot do meat and pastry, fruit and pastry fine, although also don't like Yorkshire puddings wet (or near gravy)
- stews. Don't know why but I find the taste of the meat changes and it becomes this metallic taste.

Yes, I realise that but 9 of 10 people associate sushi with seating raw fish and won't have heard of sashimi. It's just like lumping all Indian food under the name of "curry".

- Chinese - most of the stuff in the takeaways around here seems to be a mixture of grease and monosodium glutomate. Also being vegetarian, I do not trust what is in these.

- Anything that does not give decent size portions. If I go out to eat, I do not want to come home and start eating because I am hungry and have to eat again.

If I had to choose my favourite cuisine it would be a hard choice between Thai and Indian. though I'm learning more about Vietnamese and that is catching up. I'm not too fussed about most Chinese though.

Really?

I stopped eating sushi after watching a documentary called 'monsters inside me' about a man who nearly died from a parasite found in raw salmon it doesn't survive if the fish is frozen or thoroughly cooked or smoked but it can if its just refrigerated

I remember that thread. Utterly ridiculous. As long as the food is good then why does it matter? I've never had anything served on something inappropriate (ie. Gravy on a slate or board). I think on occasions slate in particular can help with presentation. My favourite local restaurant which we think is pretty close to getting a Michelin star served me my scallop starter on slate the last time I was there. It was one of the best starters I've ever had, there was no difference between it being on a plate or slate, the only difference the slate made was that it looked nicer.

This "adult sized" portion nonsense makes me laugh too. I've eaten in plenty of nice places and never left anywhere hungry, the food is often richer, so more filling and I've always left just pleasantly full. I guess some people aren't happy and don't care what the food is like as long as they feel like they're about to explode at the end.
