What's a signature food only found in your area?

DC - Half Smoke
Baltimore - Pit Beef Sandwich
Maryland (really this whole area) Blue crabs!

All delicious in their own way!

 

Is there a pizzeria , bagel store and Chinese restaurant within 1/4 mile of every strip mall and shopping center where you are?

 

forgot abot the blue crabs and fried oyster sammies (i love both) and livign about 1 mile from the MD line maybe i can claim them. shoudl add MD crab soup

 

Here in Kentucky, especially the western part, we're know for BBQ'd Mutton.

 

Nope, just Starbucks. The Hallmark of lame.

 

White Manna. Burgers cooked on the world's smallest commercial grill.

 

In Minneapolis we have the Jucy Lucy. It is a cheeseburger where the cheese is inside the burger patty. The crazy hot cheese gushes out when you bite it and burns you. Started at Matt's bar which is right by my house. Obama ate there when he was in town recently. Great spot, no frills, no plates, no ice. Lots of napkins.

 

I can only think of pie and mash with liquor or jellied eels, proper east end of London stuff

 

St nectaire ;-)

 

What is "Chicken Sand"?

 

Chicken sandwich

 

I guess our signature food is sorghum syrup, but you won't see that in any restaurant.

 

'Doh!

It's been to long since I've ordered off a menu like that

 

I was going to say chicken sandwich but I've never seen or heard anyone order it. The servers there usually just ask if you want raw onions or fried onions on the Jucy Lucy.

 

Scrapple, a fine Pennsylvania concoction of cornmeal with all of the good stuff left over from the pig, finely ground, , add some sage and other spices, shaped into a block. Cut off a slice, fry on each side until crisp. Have it with some eggs.

 

The quesastado, also known as the tostadilla, invented 9/25/2014 by KKF owner Jim.

 

Is it true that scrapple is fried haggis?

 

Cheesesteak, of course, in Philadelphia.

Oh, the shame!

 

I just caught myself staring at this. Must have been at least 30 seconds of deep mouth watering staring.
