This guy is pretty much a doctor, you should do what he says.

India's in Asia, ya know

Shut up. India's its own beast.

Funnily enough in the UK when someone mentions asian we think Indian, Bangladeshi, Pakistani etc, whilst in the US it's more Japanese, Chinese, Vietnamese etc

With Indian food you can't go too wrong, if you stick away from some of the more calorific sauces, you're left with tender chicken/meat, rice and spices. It's a very hard set of dishes to master, but God damn it's tasty.

I'd definitely go with Indian. It would be pretty awesome if you could make homemade butterchicken!

I had a great Indian? (Middle eastern? @Pyro699 help me)thing over the summer, if someone could tell me the name if it, that'd be great. I want to make it. It was like fried potato chunks with a barely-there sweet sauce and minced garlic stuck to it.

Shawarma - I think, though that was more of a wrap... Did we eat it at my place, or was it delivery? The only think I can think of that had potato chunks with garlic is a variation of poutine, but i think we only had that once.

Shawarma/kebab is Middle eastern/Turkish, not Indian

Neither, wrong gf can you go ask the poutine guy what it was?

Unsure what that is, but it sounds quite good. Post pics if you end up making anything!!

It was literally the best thing I ate in Canada and I have no idea what it was. It was a free sample at a Poutine place.

 

And ofc I'll post pictures. I just have to get home to make things first.

LOOKS LIKE KOREAN WON!

I'M STARTING OFF 2015 WITH THIS TRADITIONAL KOREAN DRINK: FILTERED WATER.

Cause I'm starting 2015 sick, fuck yeah.

Vietnamese! pho specifically. Tastes so fresh. My husband makes it, I promise its not intimidating, once you've made it once you will want it all the time.  Hell just soups from all over. Like borscht. I need more borscht in my life. 

 

Indian is great too. will expand later brb

 

edit: okay. Back to Indian. When we moved up north we nolonger had access to our favorite restaurants. Learning to make butterchicken, pakoras (like a savory fritter) and roti at home changed my life.
