Our Guest No guest this time, just us Chris and Tiarra. In this episode, we talk about our absolute favorite dishes around the world. Don't worry, they're not all expensive. Most of the food we love are simple, delicious, and affordable. We jump from country to country explaining to you how amazing all these different types of food are. 1. Mashed Potatoes from
L'Atelier de Joël Robuchon in Paris, France. Perfectly smooth mashed potatoes made with tons of butter. These mashed potatoes will convert any baked potato lover to a mashed potato fanatic. 2. Pressed Duck from
Maison Rostang in Paris France. Thinly sliced duck, perfectly cooked and smothered in a sauce made with its own blood and juices from the squished bones. The sauce was a sinister dark brown but tasted light and nutty. 3. Stuffed Turkey Wings and Smothered Pork Chops from
Glenda's Creole Kitchen in Beaux Bridge, Louisiana. Mystery ingredients slow cooked together until all the ingredients become one single component that makes a gravy that's so good it could cure any disease. 4. Poached Egg with Caviar from
Momofuku Ko in New York Cit. Slow poached egg with caviar, onion, vinegar and crispy fingerling potato chips. Everything seems a bit odd to put in a single dish but with the first bite, it will all make sense. 5. Rice Pudding from
Chez L'Ami Jean in Paris, France. Perfectly light and fluffy rice pudding topped with salted butter caramel whipped cream and roasted caramelized pecans. Served in a big bowl, you get the serving you want, and feel free to get seconds...or thirds. 6. Fusilli Pasta from
Marea in New York City. Swirled house made pasta with red wine braised octopus and bone marrow in a delicious tomato sauce. Savory and slightly sweet, we eat this pasta dish every time we visit New York City. 7. Egg Salad Sandwich from
Lawson Convenience Store in Tokyo, Japan. Yes, this is convenience store food, but everything at Lawson's is awesome. Super soft bread and fresh eggs that taste like pure magic all mixed in with Japanese mayo. Cheap and accessible and no trip to Toko would be complete without it. 8. Liquid Olives from
Tickets Bar in Barcelona Spain. Liquid olives suspended in its own juice. Biting into these leaves an explosion of flavor in your mouth that tastes more like olives than actual olives. 9. Assorted Wild Mushrooms with Caramelized Foie Gras from
El Quim in Barcelona, Spain. A surprising combination of savory elements topped with a crispy fried egg. Unlike anything, we've ever tried. Since it's located in the middle of the La Boqueria Market, feel keep eating at the other food stalls afterward. 10. Crispy Chicken Sandwich from
White House Tavern from Aspen, Colorado. Not just a chicken sandwich but the perfect chicken sandwich, the flavor combinations of the chicken, tomato, swiss cheese, and spicy kale slaw make for the most amazing sandwich.
