[quote=Anonymous]Everyone recommends Raskia and Oyamel. Lines at Chipotle are out the door. When a group of friends dine together, the "safe" choice is often Thai. I can't think of ever hearing any buzz about an Icelandic or Russian restaurant. Care to weigh in? What is the reason, you think, for the near-universal popularity of the cuisines of the (for lack of a better term) global south? And even if we're discounting economy and geography, the warmer climates seem to produce "better" food-- Spain, Italy, Greece, as opposed to Germany, Poland. France and Japan seem to be outliers. I know what I think... Indian food simply tastes better than pickled shark with potatoes. (No offense to my Icelandic friends.) But [i]why[/i] is this the case? [/quote]
