My favorite food has got to be soft tofu soup. I grew up eating this and is part of my culture. You can have it seafood style with shrimp, clams, octopus like in the picture below. However you can have it with beef,chicken, pork too or meatless altogether. My favorite version has beef/pork, as well as kimchi and an egg on top. Extra spicy for me. Not only is it relatively healthy but very tasty with rice, especially on a cold winter’s day.

KimChi is my favor food in the world. It is from Korea and is made of different type vegetables which has been seasoned with some kind of sauce. You can take the kimchi with plain rice or anything you like. It taste a bit spicy and sour.

PASTA!
Why did i pick such a common food you may ask? BECAUSE ITS AWESOME.
Not only does pasta taste great but it can be cooked various different ways using many different spices/sauces.
Many cultures have there own rendition on the way pasta is made but my favorite type is “Penne ala Vodka”
Being that i was raised by a Sicilian mother, pasta is something i have grown accustom to eating more than 3 times per week

My favorite food is blintz (crepes) stuffed with poppy seeds.
The blintz have to be liberally stuffed with as much poppy seed feeling as possible, that way it tastes really good.
Poppy seed stuffing is cooked with milk, sugar, honey and walnuts.
Acquired taste

My favorite food is manti, which is a traditional Turkish dish that is also found across other cultures. Manti are, in simplest terms, dumplings. These savory pastries are typically filled with ground beef. In Uzbek culture, cabbage is also a popular filling. The bigger ones are steamed and the little ones can be boiled and served with yogurt or served in a soup.

My favorite food is a fresh apricot. It’s nearly impossible to find really good ones here in New York, though. When I visited California as a kid, I remember eating the most amazing apricots.
